Young-adult fiction by John Green

Blurb

Miles "Pudge" Halter is abandoning his safe-okay, boring-life. Fascinated by the last words of famous people, Pudge leaves for boarding school to seek what a dying Rabelais called the "Great Perhaps."
Pudge becomes encircled by friends whose lives are everything but safe and boring. Their nucleus is razor-sharp, sexy, and self-destructive Alaska, who has perfected the arts of pranking and evading school rules. Pudge falls impossibly in love. When tragedy strikes the close-knit group, it is only in coming face-to-face with death that Pudge discovers the value of living and loving unconditionally.
John Green's stunning debut marks the arrival of a stand-out new voice in young adult fiction.

John Green is an exceptional author. This book hits the mark in every way. Miles is one of the best main characters I have read about in a long time. I love the whole concept of finding the "Great Perhaps." Alaska is far from the girl next door, yet you can't help but fall in love with her, much in the same way Miles does. It is thought-provoking, unexpected, truly a masterpiece.
