Last Book Club Title of 25-26 is....Looking for Alaska by John Green. We will meet on June 3rd at 3pm in A20. Let's fit one last book into this school year. It's a short one (or at least shorter than all the titles we read this year); 221 pgs. That's 10 pages you have to read a day between now (5/11/2026) and the meeting to have it read on time. Are you up for it? Copies are available in the library. Just stop by and pick one up.Looking for Alaska summary: Miles Halter is fascinated by famous last words—and tired of his safe life at home. He leaves for boarding school to seek what the dying poet François Rabelais called the “Great Perhaps.” Much awaits Miles at Culver Creek, including Alaska Young, who will pull Miles into her labyrinth and catapult him into the Great Perhaps.
