Before. Miles "Pudge" Halter's whole existence has been one big nonevent, and his obsession with famous last words has only made him crave the "Great Perhaps" (François Rabelais, poet) even more. He heads off to the sometimes crazy, possibly unstable, and anything-but-boring world of Culver Creek Boarding School, and his life becomes the opposite of safe. Because down the hall is Alaska Young. The gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, self-destructive, screwed-up, and utterly fascinating Alaska Young, who is an event unto herself. She pulls Pudge into her world, launches him into the Great Perhaps, and steals his heart.

After. Nothing is ever the same.

Hello, I'm a travelling book!!!
I've been to many places and now I am visiting the BookCrossing Anniversary Convention in Athens. Take me with you, read me and then please release me again, so that I can make new friends and continue my journey.

Picked it up at the Convention book table because everyone is raving about John Green.
Big hugs to you, Alexandra!

edit: read in summer 2018.
Great characters and very sad, but the writing felt just okay. Maybe a bit too juvenile for my taste.

In the Little Free Library

found this in a Little Library in St Petersburg, Florida, USA. I took it to Spain to read, but never did. Releasing in Logroño, La Rioja, Spain
