Looking For Alaska

Insightful. Beautiful. Meaningful. The ending was just perfect. I'm not going to spoil but this book has me thinking a lot about life and people. I don't like the idea of people doing suicide and this book just made me realize that every person is significant and they all play a part in this large world that's both broken and amazing and just... complex.Last paragraph:
"So I know she forgives me, just as I forgive her. Thomas Edison's last words were: "It's very beautiful over there." I don't know where there is, but I believe it's somewhere, and I hope it's beautiful."
~Miles Halter's Essay.
That's how the book ended.
