I am reading Looking for Alaska for my assignment. This book is about a teenager named Miles "Pudge" Halter who transfers to the Culver Creek Boarding School. So far his life has been pretty boring and not much has ever happened in it. He meets many new friends while at Culver Creek, including: Chip "The Colonel" Martin, Takumi Hikohito, Lara Buterskaya and most importantly, Alaska Young. These people change Miles life in both positive and negative ways.
As I get further into the story it becomes obvious that Miles likes Alaska. I predict that they will get together by the end of the novel or something like that because Miles obsesses over her for almost every page in the book. It would surprise me if this did not happen.
I like this book because it's very unique and different than anything else I've read. I can't really compare it to any other book or movie I know of. I also like this book because I think it can be very relatable at times especially because I am also close to the age of most of the characters. I like the book a lot overall and the only issue is that it can be a little slow paced at times.
