Media Reviews
Miles's narration is alive with sweet, self-deprecating humor, and his obvious struggle to tell the story truthfully adds to his believability. School Library Journal
What sings and soars in this gorgeously told tale is Green's mastery of language and the sweet, rough edges of Pudge's voice. Girls will cry and boys will find love, lust, loss and longing in Alaska's vanilla-and-cigarettes scent. Kirkus
This is an amazing first novel by a writer who is young enough to vividly remember his powerful years of high school and he expertly turns remembrance into story. Children's Literature
The novel's chief appeal lies in Miles's well-articulated lust and his initial excitement about being on his own for the first time. Publishers Weekly
