A review by tmcconnell93
The Giver by Lois Lowry

5.0

I have seen this book everywhere in my local bookstore forever and had seen the high ratings that it continues to get. I finally decided to buy it. I didn't know that it was actually a series which helped me understand why it was such a quick read. When you read the book it is so complex, and you don't even realize it until half way through. It is fast paced which kept me interested and will keep ANYONE who reads it hooked.
But what I LOVED about this book is what you learn from it, and I'm not going to give anything away because now I understand why all the teachers assigned it in middle school. (clearly not my own) it is a must read and I can't wait to pick up the 2nd book in the series.
