Mysterious Ending

Hey guys! So I finished Looking for Alaska a few days ago, and I have to say that my favorite part of the whole book was the end. I can't tell you what happened because that would give away the biggest spoiler! But I can tell you that I liked it because it included problem solving. Pudge and the Colonel work together to piece out clues and find out the reason of a death at the school. They know almost nothing other than the person got really angry, was very drunk, and left campus early in the morning.

I would recommend this book to people who like the author John Green. I haven’t read any of his other books but my sister has told me about the Fault in Our Stars and the plot seems very similar. Although guys may like the book, it seemed to me like a book girls would prefer. It’s not a hard book to read but it does have a lot of cuss words in it. Actually not a lot of words, it’s primarily one word but repeated A LOT! So I wouldn’t recommend this for children under the teens.

After we’ve gone to the end lets go back to the beginning.

Why did I choose this book? I picked this book because I don’t like really creepy, dark books and even though you can’t judge a book by its cover you can judge it by its title and all the other titles sounded horrible. Like seriously Midwinter Blood? Maggot Moon? The Kingdom of Little Wounds? You have to admit that those titles make the books sound creepy, disgusting, and dark. Exactly the kind of books I don’t like. So the titles turned me off of at least half of the books.

 I also only recognized the author of one of the books in the list, this one. John Green was the only author I recognized and I had heard that his books were really good so I decided to give him a try. I did like the book and so now I’ll have to read some of his other ones.
