Looking For Alaska

I am currently reading Looking For Alaska by John Green. I have just started reading the book and it is good so far. It keeps my attention and it is an enjoyable read.

I chose this book because I like John Green books and my friend wanted me to read it. I thought I would give it a try. It sounded cool. I was interested to see if it was good because I really loved reading The Fault In Our Stars. This is also written  by John Green. 

The cover is mysterious. This is also why I wanted to read the book. I was curious. Interested. Engaged. The cover is black with smoke coming up from the bottom of the page. Before I read the book, I didn't know what is meant or if the smoke was a symbol. I want to continue to read to find out if it is a symbol and what is represents. 

I find it interesting that John Green writes the type of books that he does because he seems silly and outgoing. His books can have serious topics such as cancer. It seems like his personality and his style of writing are contrasting. 

I am very excited and glad to have chose such an interesting and compelling book because it has been very entertaining. Books are very fun to me. I have always liked to read. For a while I couldn't find books that I liked so I began to lose the fun feeling. Once I started reading Looking For Alaska, I began to like reading again.
