LOOKING FOR ALASKA

  I AM READING THE BOOK “LOOKING FOR ALASKA” I JUST FINISHED THIS BOOK

TODAY AND I THOUGHT THAT THE ENDING IS REALLY MEANINGFUL. THIS BOOK

WAS ABOUT THESE BOYS NAMED MILES OR “PUDGE”, CHIP OR “THE COLONEL” AND

ALSO TAKUMI.  MILES USED TO BE A BOY WITH NO FRIENDS AND A HOBBY OF

FINDING OUT PEOPLE’S LAST WORDS. CHIP WAS ALSO A LOSER ,SHORT,  ANNOYING

AND NO FRIENDS WHATSOEVER.  TAKUMI IS THIS COMPUTER WHIZ. HE’S ASIAN

AND FAIRLY SMART. THEN THERE IS A GIRL NAMED ALASKA. SHE IS A VERY PRETTY

GIRL. SHE’S SMART, SHE CAN GET ALL THE BOYS IN THE WORLD AND HAS THE

POWER TO CHANGE BOYS LIKE “PUDGE” AND “THE COLONEL” INTO GUYS THAT

GIRLS WOULD DROOL OVER. BUT DEEP DOWN INSIDE ALASKA HAS A SECRET. SHE

HAS PROBLEMS THAT SHE IS AFRAID TO REVEAL. SHE BLAMES HERSELF FOR THE

DEATH OF HER MOTHER, AND THINKS THAT SHE COULD HAVE SAVED HER BUT

DIDN’T.  EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS 8 YRS OLD.

IN THE BOOK ALASKA’S GOAL IS TO HELP PUDGE BECOME A CHICK MAGNET. SHE

STARTS BY LOOKING FOR GIRLS THAT ARE PRETTY, NOT HOT BECAUSE PUDGE

DOESN’T NEED THAT YET.  SOON AFTER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME THE GUYS START

SEEING A CHANGE IN ALASKA. SHE STARTS TO DRINK IN EXCESSIVE, STARTS TO CARE

LESS ABOUT GETTING CAUGHT DRINKING. SHE STARTS SMOKING ONE PACK OF

CIGGARETTES A DAY. THE GUYS SEE THIS BUT ARE ALSO LOSING CONTROL OVER THE

 SMOKING AND BEER. SO THEY DON’T DO SQUAT.

MUCH LATER ALASKA SUFFERS A CAR ACCIDENT AND DIES. WHILE THE BOYS TRY TO

INVESTIGATE WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED ALASKAS DEATH , THEY FINALLY THINK

THAT IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH HER MOM. THEY BLAME THEMSELVES, BUT

IN THE END THEY FIGURE OU THAT SHE TOOK THAT DDECISION AND LET HER REST

IN PEACE.
