March 20- Prompt: Reflect on your reading of Into the Wild chapters 1–10. Which chapter stood out to you the most, and why? In your response, explain what specifically made this chapter meaningful, interesting, or impactful. You may consider elements such as McCandless’s actions, a key event, a theme, or Krakauer’s storytelling.

 Response- The chapter that stood out to me the most was chapter 10. It was a specific paragraph that stood out to me, close to the end. It was when mccandless was saying his goodbyes to everyone and started crying. He was seen as someone to not build relationships with people and kept a distance but it surprised me that he had played the piano fluently for everyone, and even cried when he was about to leave. I think he knew that he was risking his life for the sake of finding his identity and being free. 

Summary- Something that stuck out to me was chapter 10, when McCandless cried.

Reflection- We talked about the into the wild book for class.
