Literary Reflection

If you could bring one character from any one book that we have read this year with you when you go to college, who would bring? Why?
In the book Slaughterhouse Five, the character Billy Pilgrim interested me the most. If I were to pick a character from any book from the semester to have as a friend, I would have to choose Billy.
In college Billy would be the kid to always tell the interesting stories and always have insightful thoughts about everything. When he was abducted and brought Tralfamadore, he learned so much and it brought out an experience that changed his life. This would benefit me because his stories will become more interesting and insightful.

Besides the fact the Billy Pilgrim dies in the book in a plane crash, lets just pretend that he didn't.

"Billy Pilgrim says that the Universe does not look like a lot of bright little dots to the creatures from Tralfamadore. The creatures can see where each star has been and where it is going, so that the heavens are filled with rarefied, luminous spaghetti." page 110

This shows how much insight he would have on things. If you are abducted by aliens, you are bound to have either very cool stories or just be crazy. Billy Pilgrim is not the type of kid who stands up for himself so he would not be a very strong friend but at least he has a good personality.
