Initial Thoughts...

I am reading the book, Looking For Alaska. John Green does a wonderful job at telling this story about miles, first he starts him of at a public school where he is a nobody Then later he meets The Colonel and he life changes. Miles life in high school before he went to boarding school was, he was a nobody, no friends, no life. Miles meets The Colonel and his life changes, he smokes with him and hangs with him. I think he is adjusting to the boarding school life. On another note i thing is outlook on life is changing, he is still seeking "Great Perhaps". But he is not smoking daily and his love style is changing dramatically. Can't wait to see what happens next to Miles.

  2. Because he is looking for himself. By finding himself he finds great perhaps.

  3. I think you talked about Miles pretty well because you are talking about how he finds it important for himself.

  4. Be sure to also address the structure of the novel (as stated in the prompt). Why do you think the author chose to divide the book into BEFORE and AFTER instead of simply telling the story.
