Review: Looking for Alaska
3:30 AM
Okay, can I just say. I wasn't sure with I was going to like this and I didn't... I love it. Wow, the characters are different but fit together like a puzzle. I just fell in love with the three main characters. The main guy Pudge, and then there's Chip and Alaska. All three of them go to Culver Creek Boarding School; Pudge being the new guy. Through the pages their friendships grow along with feelings and drama.
Pudge loves last words of people. This was something at first I found odd at first but soon fell in love with this. There are some amazing last words in this word; this made the book complete as a whole.
The pranks in this book are funny and enjoyable. But then during this book filled with sweet friendship, drama, and sadness gets lighting streaked, unbelievable page turner. I couldn't believe that, Alaska, who's one of a kind. I mean, some of the things she did and say made me think twice. Or smile or want to reach in and hug her. The lessons in this story is hard to learn. I felt sad, smiles and life knowledge about death and many other life things in these pages.
The writing styles in the book is amazing thanks to the wonderful John Green. I just love the writing, characters and plot; I could go on about ways this story came to life or made me stop and think. This was one of my favorite books by John Green and I can’t wait to read his other works.

I've never read anything by John Green but I've been thinking of starting out with this one or Paper Towns. Glad you loved this. Alaska sounds like a great character I'd love to get to know. Nice review! :)
