Camren (camrren) I have read Looking for Alaska about 15 times over the past 7 years. I have two copies in the US cover and one in the UK cover! It is probably my favorite book because it shows the reader that someone can be happy and fun to be around on the outside, but they can be dealing with something very dark behind closed doors. I saw that they made a TV show for this book a while ago, have any of you watched it?

That's understandable! The show didn't look great to me so I didn't even give it a chance.

lol i'm so late but i watched a few episodes of the show a few months ago. from what i remember, it was quite faithful to the book. i think shows are so much more capable of doing a book justice than the movie can! anyway. if u loved the book, i think u should watch the show :)


katie ❀ (whisperngpages) I am reading this right now, and I kind of hate it with all my soul.

Luna (luna13) | 93 comments Prefer The Fault in Our Stars. Alaska was beyond irritating.


FantasyFan08 | 41 comments Absolutely loved this book! Saved me from a horrible campmate and a long busride this summer! It would be a tie between The Fault in Our Stars and this one as my fav by John green. Its a book that draws out my love and hate and for the love of god- I wish I had the ability to reread books without knowing what's going to happen.
