Gifts by Ursula K. Le Guin

4.0

I liked this a lot more than any other Le Guin book I've read -- I was able to tell the characters apart and was actually interested in them, and that's a first. I don't know why that should be.

It was a really good book, but I think I would have liked to know more of Gry's story rather than Orrec's. The stuff about gifts going forward instead of backward is really intriguing, and I would've liked to see a movement towards making them go forward again, instead of Gry and Orrec just running away because they couldn't fit in.
