Looking For Alaska

Emily Mears, assistant editor

This month Book Club is reading John Green’s popular novel, Looking for Alaska. The book follows main character Miles “Pudge” Halter as he switches schools to go to Culver Creek Boarding School in search of his “Great Perhaps.” Once there he meets his roommate Chip “The Colonel” and the one-of-a-kind Alaska Young. Alaska pulls Pudge into her world and steals his heart and then nothing is ever the same. This book is very thoughtfully and beautifully written and deserves to go down in history as a classic. (3.99/5 stars on Goodreads)
