Looking for Alaska by John Green is a young adult book that is a pretty fast, engaging read. This is a story about a teenager called Miles later nicknamed “Pudge” by a friend. He is a reader particularly interested in the last words of famous people. In choosing to go to prep school in Alabama, he relied on the last words of François Rabelais—”I go to seek a Great Perhaps”. (That is exactly why I moved from Massachusetts to California in my younger years.)
