Gourley-Jefferson High School YA Lit discussion

Please respond to the following questions:
1. What could have been different if Luis found out who his father was before moving to Mexico or Colorado?

2. How did Chuy find out where Luis has been moving from since they left Chicago?

I think that if they told Luis who his father was it would have just made things happen faster, but it would have been worse. There wouldn't have been anyone to save the day like in the book. But i also think that it could have possibly had a better out come. Maybe they could have avoided things and Luis would have been prepared to face Chuy.

I think that if Luis had found out it would of just quickened the process of him joining the LB when he got back to Chicago. Also it would of killed his chances to get with Nikki to begin with and then they never would have fell in love. If they didnt fall in love it would have been a very sad day.

I think the book would have been completely different if he had found out who is father was earlier in life. I think that maybe he would have stayed in Colorado and never moved back to Chicago. I think that Chuy must have had people who he had done dealings with all over the country.
