Reading Project Part 2 Looking For Alaska

Miles: Miles is no different than any other juvenile, except miles seems to be much more intelligent than most of the kids there. And Miles is in love with this girl named Alaska who is supposedly everything in one package. And he obviously wants to have a more substantial relationship with Alaska for he likes her a lot more than just a plain old friend. And it seems he’s always looking for trouble like it’s a habit. And he shares moments with Alaska such as drinking and smoking which are prohibited at the boarding school and is obviously against the law.

Alaska: Alaska is a very intelligent, beautiful girl who is clever with her words and is very self-destructive towards her body caused by drinking and smoking. She also likes Miles and I think would like to have a better relationship with Miles.

New themes that are beginning to appear is Alaska is starting to smoke more without getting caught which in the case that she got caught its evident that she would not care. And Miles has started to take some of Alaska’s very bad habits such as drinking alcohol. And this book is centered around the view of Miles.

Summer reading Project Part One Looking For Alaska

The book I have read is titled “Looking For Alaska” By:John Green  some of the main characters names are “Miles Halter’s” who also goes by the name “Pudge” and of course Alaska Young who is a smart and pretty girl from how miles describes her in the book. Miles starts in the sunny state of Florida and soon after sent to Alabama for boarding school. Miles was a very juvenile kid and got himself into a lot of trouble. I also made a connection between me and miles and the connection is that we don t always think before we react. I am wondering will miles ever get caught buying cigarettes?  Miles also goes into this boarding school his junior year two years from graduating! I can also connect miles to Reese from the show “Malcolm In The Middle” Reese always grew up breaking the laws and prone to getting in trouble and eventually ends up in military camp. “Alaska swallowed a mouthful of French fries, took a drag on her cigarette, and blew smoke across the table at hank. “I may die young” she said. “but at least I’ll die smart. Now back to tangents.” Pg.52 this shows how clever Alaska is with her words.
