Entry 3

When I read the following couple of paragraphs I almost couldn't believe what I had just read. This is why I chose it as one of the most hooking parts of the book. '"Please sir," I said. "Can we please wait for Alaska?" I felt all of them staring at as, trying to understand what I now knew, but didn't quite believe.

The Conell, Alaska and Pudge

The Eagle looked down and bit his lower lip. "Last night, Alaska Young was in a terrible accident." His tears came faster, them. "And she was killed. Alaska has passed away."'

While reading this part of Looking for Alaska it grabbed my attention because it's the first part in the 'after' section, so I was finally able to see what the 'before' section was leading up to. Although I did have my predictions as to what happened to Alaska throughout reading, I thought she had gone missing and ran away to her boyfriend because she felt bad that she cheated on him. I was somewhat correct in my prediction but I did not think he would have died. The whole book leads up to this part and once you read it it's a huge surprise because you finally find out what happened to Alaska, but you still keep wondering what is going to happen in the remainder of the book.
