Looking for Alaska by John Green

dark emotional sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

This book was okay. Some teen books can still hold up for young adults, but I wouldn’t read this again unless I somehow could transport to the past and was suddenly a teenager again. It’s kind of slow at first, but it’s a nicer read when you get to know the characters a bit. In the After portion of the book, I hated the way Miles (Pudge) reacted about the event. He came across incredibly selfish and I really just wanted to tell him to shut up. 

Anyways, I wouldn’t say it’s a bad book, I just didn’t really like the directions made in the book with the characters. It’s just okay
