I think the main lesson is that you shouldn't let your jealousy for someone take over and control you. People should try to do like Finny and always look on the bright side.

I think that the main lesson that can be taken away from this novel is to never let jealousy overtake you. Don't assume things about anyone because that might make you mad about something that never even happened or isn't even real.

The lessons that can be learned from this novel would be not to harm others and yourself, don't skip your classes that you need to pass, and do not do what your friends want you to do and to get you in trouble everyday.

I think that the lesson that can be learned from this novel is to not get so jealous that you do something without thinking. You might do something that you will regret doing and end up losing a friend.

I think the main lesson that can be learned is never let jealousy take over. Who cares if another person is better at sports than you or have better grades you should never hate someone for that. I also don't believe that you should assume that your friend is trying to bring you down. Just talk with your friend instead of getting mad at them.

Don't let your emotions take control of your mind. The main emotions that was in the book was jealously. Jealously is the one thing that will hurt you or your friends. Maybe even hurt your friends enough to hurt your friends leg twice.

You are totally right. Do not let jealousy get the best of you! If you do you could hurt yourself or someone else.

One of the many lessons that could be learned from this novel is the fact that you can't just assume someone feels the way you think they feel. You can never know for sure. On top of that, don't EVER act on jealousy you may feel because of this, or else you may regret your actions....

I agree, Cal, there needs to be more positivity in the world and not as much jealousy.

I think the most important thing that I will take away from this novel is to not let jealousy get the best of you. As you can tell in the story, Gene's jealousy towards Finny almost ruined their friendship; and that could happen in real life.

I totally agree with you Kim you should never be jealous of a friends.
I think that a main lesson to learn from the book is that you cannot infer how someone else feels because of how you feel. Just because you think that someone is trying to sabatoge you or something like that, you can't decide what they're thinking.

the lesson in this novel is to be our own person with our own personalities. In the novel A Separate Peace, The author tells us to be our own person with our own personality. This is proven when gene says "The war was and is reality for me. I still instinctively live and think in its atmosphere.". I believe that the author is trying to tell us that just because someone else is better at something that you can't be good at something else. The author presents this throughout the novel in the characters, gene is good at schoolwork, where as jenny is good at sports and gene isn't. So the lesson from this is be yourself and don’t let other people get in your way of being the best you!!!
