LOOKING FOR ALASKA BOOK REVIEW๐ผ
Dear Alaska Young,
You are probably the first character I loved in the first book I ever read. You represent the strength of feminism even with your closest friends in great power. The obstacles you faced,the loss of your mother at a young age for which you blamed yourself till your last breath,the interests of you in your books,the way you carried out your "labyrinth" amazes me!! There is some part of ALASKA in every girl in her teenage! Though your character lived for only 5 days of my read,it shall stay with me forever. And now i intend to answer your question that haunted me from the start- "how to get rid of labyrinth?"
Well,it's complicated. The only way to really get out of labyrinth is to live through the whole of it. So that we slowly get used to it and it doesn't appear or feel like a labyrinth through which we get out.
