Looking for Alaska

Looking for Alaska by John Green is told from the narration of Miles or “Pudge”, a junior with no friends, no challenges, and no adventures. Ready for a change and on the lookout for his “Great Perhaps”, Pudge ventures to a school halfway across the country. Here he meets a load of interesting characters, from Chip, his genius roommate, to Lara, the Romanian foreign exchange student. But none is more mysterious than Alaska Young. Alaska is beautiful, outspoken and reckless. She helps introduce Pudge to rule breaking, friendship, and in essence, life. But Alaska’s recklessness holds a deeper meaning; one that Pudge is determined to uncover.

Many sensitive issues and a shocking twist will have you asking Alaska’s question, “Can we get out of this labyrinth of suffering?”
