I have recently read a wonderful book by John Green which is titled ‘Looking For Alaska’. The book is about a boy who is new to a boarding school; where he meets new friends and goes to “seek the Great Perhaps”. I think it’s a great book in which the author portrays the fragility of life‚ the importance of loving people while they’re still around‚ living your life to the fullest and also appreciating and understanding the value of friendship. The two main characters named Miles/Pudge and Alaska have

“Like the Sun” and “The Open Window” are two both very similar yet different stories. “Like the Sun” happens to be about truth‚ and its effects while “The Open Window” is based around deception. Both authors do a great job at setting examples of paradoxes and irony in their stories. In “Like the Sun” Sekhar‚ the main character repeats multiple times “Truth is like the sun.” I understood this as saying without truth‚ you can’t grow‚ like living things can’t survive without sun. One example of irony
