Welcome to the 9th season of YA, We Read It! This season, beloved hosts Laura and Meggie are reading John Green's entire anthology (and enlisting some very special guests along the way.) This week, Austin Merrill sits down with us to read Green's first book, Looking for Alaska (originally published in 2005) which easily became one of his most well-known and well-received works.
Miles Halter goes off to boarding school in Alabama, where he quickly befriends his roommate, whom he affectionately calls The Colonel, and the captivating Alaska Young. Tune in as we discuss the before and after, the heart and the loss this book captures, and everything in between.
