WARNING: This is not the actual book Looking for Alaska by John Green. Do not buy this Review if you are looking for a full copy of this great book.This review of Looking for Alaska provides everything you need to know before you dig in for a read that you probably won't be able to stop before it's over. This is not a long novel, but it's addicting, as you watch Miles Halter search for his "Great Perhaps" at the Culver Creek Boarding School in Alabama. Once there, his past life of having no friends or purpose is turned upside down, thanks to his new group of schoolmates. Alaska Young is the best friend of his roommate, and she is everything he has always wanted, even down to her self-destructive streak that represents something he desperately needs in his life: excitement.Looking for Alaska features crisp dialogue that readers of all ages can appreciate. This expert review details where John Green succeeded in this regard, while discussing areas where he fell a bit short, which are few. He organizes the novel into two halves: one for "Before" and one for "After." Readers are left to wonder what the actual event will be. Green foreshadows much of what is to come, without giving it away, which this review discusses as a highly positive note. Does the most memorable scene in Looking for Alaska provide the impact the author intended? Would a different ending work better in the eyes of readers? This review details all that and more.
