Summer Reading Project: Looking for Alaska 1

The book I chose to read for my summer reading project is the book, Looking for Alaska; written by John Green. It is about a boy named Miles (his nickname is Pudge) who decides to leave his home in Florida to go to a boarding school in Alabama. When he arrives he meets his roommate, Chip (His nickname is Colonel) who he becomes better friends with. Chip talks to Miles, and then ends up going to see his other friend, Alaska. Miles meets her and they all become better friends. So the main characters of the story are Alaska, Miles, and Chip.  Also the setting in this story is the boarding school, Culver Creek which is in Alabama. A conflict in this story is how Miles tries to adjust to the new school. It was hard for him to find friends, and adjust to the new place. I predict that later in the book, Miles will get to know his friends much better. I also think that Chip will end up breaking up with his girlfriend, Sara. I think that the way this story is written is a little bit similar to John Green’s other book, The Fault in Our Stars.
