“What sets this novel apart is the brilliant, insightful, suffering but enduring voice of Miles Halter.”
“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."
“What sings and soars in this gorgeously told tale is Green’s mastery of language and the sweet, rough edges of Pudge’s voice.”
“Alive with sweet, self-deprecating humor.”
