looking for alaska by john green
this episode we are putting it all on the line and delving into familiar, nostalgic territory. for our november episode, we’re exploring the theme “manic pixie dream girl” and reading one of the classic, ancient texts - looking for alaska by john green. in this episode we break down the manic pixie dream girl trope (from daisy buchanan to ramona flowers), plumb the depths of our adolescent tumblrs for john green-esque quotes, rap a little bit, and as usual, cry as we recite quotes to one another. will miles, alaska, the colonel and takumi win us over or will we be left frustrated by another young man’s hollow quest for self-discovery?
