'Waiting On Wednesday' is a weekly event hosted @ Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Mine is a book that's been out for a few years, but with my recent obsession with John Green after reading 'The Fault In Our Stars', the next time I get some money, this book is what i'm ordering off Amazon!
Looking For Alaska, by John Green, published March 3rd, 2005, from Dutton Juvenile.
From Amazon:
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.
My thoughts: just wow, okay? WOW. This book looks so amazing!
Awesome Blogs!
