Into these last pages some interesting facts were explained and some mysteries were aired. I like the ending of the book because I put the book away with a good feeling of satisfaction.. I don't have to think anymore about Alaskas death and furthermore I don't have to worry about the Colonel and Miles because I know they have handle all the bad things that have happend. They start learning for school and think about their future.
I also like the last words of Miles in the end, the philosophical phrases with this trueness in it.
All in all I have to say that I enjoyed reading this book.

From Sophie:
In these pages the mood gets a lot better! I liked this a lot. To read how they planned the prank was a real good deed. The stripper scene was awesome! I couldn't stop laughing! The story can go on like that.

The atmosphere is still the same and this make it very difficult to enjoy reading the book. It makes me very sad reading how Miles and the Colonel try do figure out why and how Alaska died. Always the question ''why?'' and no answer. I feel with the characters and also the tension between them is ready to hand. In some situations I thought the Colonel and Miles break up and never agree again, but then they are closer to each other than ever. So you can say the reader gets to know more and more about the characters .
I liked the ritual in the end, although putting cigarettes in a lake is not very eco-friendly. But first of all I hope the mood gets better into the next pages.

From Sophie:
Worse. That's the only thing I can think about this part of the book. Why did John Green let Alaska
I also don't like the atmosphere in the book now. Before her death it was nice and I could feel a little bit with the characters. Now I can't, it just makes me tired to read this book. I don't like such a melancholy atmosphere over a long time in books I read. I guess that the story should go on and if the story goes on, the atmosphere changes in every book I read yet.
So all in all I can say that there was nothing in these pages that I liked.

In these pages Alaska, Pugde, the Colonel, Lara and Takumi planned a pre-prank to the Weekday Warriors, the boys who cast Pudge into the lake. Alaska and Pudge figured out that the Weekday Warriors love their hair and so they want to colour their hair blue. Takumi and Pudge lit firechrackers to prescind the Eagle from Alaska and the Colonel while they put dye in the conditioner and their gel. This prank was succesful but directly after they played it something interesting happend. The actions overturning: The night they played the prank they slept outside all together and Lara and Pugde came pretty close to each other, they kissing and slept side by side in Laras sleeping bag. And now Pugde had a girlfriend. I was pleased about that but if I were in Miles position I can't talk much with Lara because of her accent, e.g. ''I knew Engleesh and my parents deedn't. I know she is from Romania but sometimes it's hard to understand what she means. Anyway the story went on and that night they played a game called ''Best Day/Worst Day''. While this game we found out that Alaska had made a horrible experinece when she was only six years old. She found her mother laying on the floor, jerking and then she hold her hand, crying and screaming and don't think about calling the emergency. And so her mother died. After I read this I was totally shocked what Alaska was gone through in her childhood, furthermore that her dad thinks she is guilty for his wifes death.
But in these pages were also funny moments basically at the expense of Lara. She wanted to give Miles a blowjob but she didn't know how to do that. This fact was very funny because even Miles had no idea. Although I'm very sure that he knows how that worked. Well, however the top of the situation was when Lara wanted to bite Pudge. That was so amusing on the one hand but on the other hand I felt very ashamed of both. Needless to say that this was not enough, so suddenly it goes on with the kissing between Alaska and Pudge. I don't know how this could happened so fast but in these pages it's an overturning of the actions.
