• Swan's Way
  Eighty-two days before: Someone on the Weber list recommended this book, and then I heard from another friend that it has a startling sex scene on pages 126-8, so I said to myself, why not, although YA fiction hasn't ever really entertained me (except for the novels of Lorena Mattingly Weber).

• I just really liked it
  I really enjoyed this book 1.) because it was funny, and 2) because the Miles character was more like my young self than any character I've ever read, and 3)I'm always interested in stories about how people 4) deal with grief, and 5)learn to accept their own fallibility.

• Great Young teen book
  Looking for Alaska is a great book for any age group. we all can relate to a girl that we fell in love with but something happened and we never ended up with them. the plot also is believable and nicely portrayed. the story telling is not as good as real Literature (Steinbeck,Hemingway,ext) but it is a young teen book so do not expect it to be.
