Round Table 1:
- We think that it is about how the life of the protagonist progresses, and how it relates the scorpion
- We do not know why it writes la vida nueva, but we think it may have something to do with his escape there
- Sam discovered something awesome. La vida Nueva means New life in spanish, so he may be reborn after he dies in the 2nd last chapter
- One chapters name is death, so I think that it could relate to the protagonist dying
- We think that the title is called house of the scorpion, because the scorpion is the symbol of the drug lord
- He may have also been written by a scorpion, or in astrology he is a scorpio
- The book won 3 awards (such as national book winner, dewberry honour, and Award for excellent young adult literature)
