First drink. First prank. First friend. First love.

Last words.

Miles Halter is fascinated by famous last words—and tired of his safe life at home. He leaves for boarding school to seek what the dying poet François Rabelais called the “Great Perhaps.” Much awaits Miles at Culver Creek, including Alaska Young, who will pull Miles into her labyrinth and catapult him into the Great Perhaps.

Looking for Alaska brilliantly chronicles the indelible impact one life can have on another. A modern classic, this stunning debut marked #1 bestselling author John Green’s arrival as a groundbreaking new voice in contemporary fiction.

“What sets this novel apart is the brilliant, insightful, suffering but enduring voice of Miles Halter.” —Chicago Tribune

“Looking For Alaska is a showcase to the raw talent John Green has, the kind of talent that can make you close the crisp last page of a novel and come out as a different person....

A gem of modern literature." —Guardian

★ “What sings and soars in this gorgeously told tale is Green’s mastery of language and the sweet, rough edges of Pudge’s voice.” —Kirkus

★ “Alive with sweet, self-deprecating humor.” —SLJ

Everyone needs to find their Alaska

Beautifully performed and of course written. John Greene makes me have all the feelings! I highly recommend this one!

Fantastic coming of age book

Loved this book - made even better by reader Wil Wheaton. Classic coming-of-age story which resonates with me as I have a son the same age as the characters. Stumbled on this book by accident while looking for books read by Wil Wheaton - I'll be listening to other John Green stories.

Fantastic narrative

Great narration but the one time where the movie (series) was actually better than book

Excellent Narration, Deeper Story than I Expected

I thought this would be a light teen drama, which it certainly has enough of that. But there is a much deeper message that eventually plays out. The narration is outstanding.

Prepare to think. Prepare to weep.

i found myself loving this book. it opened many philosophical questions. it made me laugh. And it also made me weep. Repeatedly.

This book is an excellent find. Highly recommended.
