TKoNLG, Chapter 12

The Knife of Never Letting Go (TKoNLG)
Chapters 11-12

*No Spoilers!* If you have read ahead, please keep your comments spoiler-free. Thank you!

DISCUSS:

- How could Todd better handle himself with the girl? Would you be as frustrated with her as he is? Why or why not?

- Why do you think she didn't speak before?

- How would her speaking to Todd change the events in the novel thus far? Would they have been improved? Or worse? Why?

You can respond to one of the questions or all of them. Or respond to a classmate's response.

    1. I think the girl talking to todd was a great improvement for the story. It was getting slow. If she took the entire book to say a thing I'd probably throw it out the window :)

  2. ~Todd could stop thinking she's dumb. He's always acting like she doesn't know what she's soposed to be doing or where she's going.
    ~She didn't think talking would have put them in a better situation so she was quite.
    ~If she talked, the situation would have change in a way that todd would probably be more attached or even angry at her for whatever reason.

  3. I think that the girl was afraid of talking to strangers, and she is in shock of what happened in the crash with her parents.

  4. I think the reason the girl didn't talk was because she wasn't so sure about Todd and she was still in shock form her parents dying.

  5. I think she didn't know what to say to him because of the way Todd is acting towards her in a way that she didn't want to say anything because he was yelling at her all the time.

  6. ~Todd could have been more patient with the girl, and I think I may have been able to handle myself a tad better then Todd has so far because I am a very calm person and have a lot of patients with people.
    ~I believe that she wasn't speaking to Todd because she just lost her parents after crash landing on a new planet and then to have Aaron attack her, most likely made her really nervous to speak to Todd.

  7. I think the girl was afraid to talk to him because she fears he'll do the same thing Aaron did to her.
