Looking for Alaska is a humorous, surprising, and mysterious book written by John Green. He talks about the peer pressure that teenagers face, including drinking, drugs and premarital sex. I believe that although this book was recommended for teenagers, children aged 11-13 should also read it to know why they should overcome peer pressure as a teenager. Mile “Pudge” Halter is a high school student. who left his home in Florida to attend Culver Creek Boarding School in Alabama. Pudge is fascinated by the last words of famous people. In Florida, he was very lonely, had no friends, and was known as a geek at school. Pudge travels to Alabama, where he is influenced by his classmates to take drugs, have premarital sex, drink alcohol, and smoke cigarettes. Alaska is a troubled senior who corrupts Pudge's mind and begins making him drink alcohol, smoke marijuana, and have sex. . She is very troubled and when she was little her mother started screaming, she fell to the floor and started jerking off. She then stopped breathing and died. Chip Martin is another troubled kid that everyone calls "the Colonial." He is from Alabama and loves smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol. Even though he loves reading and is a straight-A student.Looking For Alaska takes place in the early 2000s at Culver Creek Boarding School in Alabama, south of Birmingham. The setting makes the story interesting by showing the lake and the secret forest where they went to smoke cigarettes. During his first day at Culver Creek, Pudge is grabbed out of his bed, duct-taped and thrown into a nearby creek by the "Weekday Warriors", a group of wealthy middle of paper ...... is dead and is came into the room sobbing that she had to leave, referring to her mother's grave. But it was already past midnight the next day. She was drunk and angry with herself. When she saw the truck and the police car, she was either drunk enough to think she could get through, or she was so angry with herself that she committed suicide by taking the straight, fast route out. On the last day of school, Takumi admits in a note that he was the last person to see Alaska alive, he also let her go. Pudge realizes that it doesn't matter, that they let her go doesn't matter as much anymore. He forgives Alaska for leaving and knows that she forgives him for letting her go. He will always love her, in the present. This book taught me a lot about being careful and making good decisions in life. I think it's a wonderful book.
