Before. Miles “Pudge” Halter is done with his safe life at home. His whole life has been one big non-event, and his obsession with famous last words has only made him crave “the Great Perhaps” even more (Francois Rabelais, poet). He heads off to the sometimes crazy 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. She is an event unto herself. She pulls Pudge into her world, launches him into the Great Perhaps, and steals his heart. Then. . . . After. Nothing is ever the same
This is not a bad book, but it really is better read by its intended age group. I'd wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone under 18. Now that I think if it, a few 30 yr old guys I know could benefit from some of this as well...
Witty, sad, lovely. I loved the meaning of the book.
I could have liked it more if only The Perks of Being A Wallflower is not perfect.
