Looking for Alaska

by John Green

This is a moving story about friendship, first love and loss that older teens often keep thinking about long after they finish it. Miles, known as Pudge, goes off to boarding school and becomes close friends with the Colonel, Takumi and the bold, unpredictable Alaska Young. After Alaska dies, the friends try to piece together what happened that night. It is a thoughtful look at grief, hope and the search for meaning.
