QUOTES

“What is the point of being alive if you don’t at least try to do something remarkable?”(33)

BY: John Green

These quote have inspire me on different ways because it is true What’s the point of being alive if you don’t at least try to do something remarkable?”. While I was reading these part I connected with Collin because he said that God gave you a live that you need to do things not just watching TV or stay on your cell phone all day, instead you can go on a road trip, be with friends, eat chocolate while you are in the park flying a kite and more. I connected to Collin because I have this thought since a long time and now I figure it out what I want to do with my live.  But At the same time I wonder that if Collin think that, why he is so obsessed with Katherine and he feel like he don’t worth it? With the fact that when she broke up with him he stay in his room for days crying and feeling alone, but if he said these quote  he could do so much with his life instead of crying. Also the way John describes how the character is feeling it makes us the readers to start thinking of making a change and that could be a very huge step to the World.

“She shook her head but couldn’t stop laughing. “Nothing “ she “said, let’s go see the Archduke”. “No tell me” said Collin insistently. He didn’t like secrets kept from him….”Is nothing. Just I only dated one boy”. “What’s the funny”? Collin asked. It’s funny” she explained, “because his name is Collin”. (66)

In this quote we see Lindsey And Collin talking about their life but in a moment of the story they start talking about their love story, so Collin told Lindsey about the 19 girlfriends that he have, all with the same name.  Lindsey laughs because it’s something that you don’t hear often so she was shocked. But it isn’t a coincidence that Collin has 19 girlfriends with the same name, then met Lindsey and she tell him that his boyfriend has the same name as him? Well that’s interesting. Well now that we know that Lindsey have a boyfriend we know that it is not going to be easy to Collin end up with her but who knows.

REFLECTION

While reading this book I laugh because of the crazy things Hassan and Collin said (cant said because they are kind of bad), makes me want to know more about the world war one and obusly to know what ill going to happened next.  Actually when I start reading these book my mind was thinking why does this boy fall in love with so many Katherine’s does it is coincidence? Does he like just that name? or even he have been destinated  just to be with Katherine’s?  Besides all the mystery that this book has it is fun to read it because the author is telling a story with the language that you said  ¡Hey! I talk like that or my friend always said that. To finalize this book have been interesting so far  and who knows what’s going to happened next.
