A review by emiliedeeann
The Giver by Lois Lowry

5.0

This is a book I need to read every year. It’s very slow; but I like slow books. They make me think. You feel just like Jonas - the main character - while reading this book. You get to be in his head. It’s beautiful, and reminds you the beauty of life. I like that this utopian society actually works - it IS perfect. But perfect isn’t always beautiful or satisfying. As a semi religious person, I also felt connected to the Christian undertones of this story. I hated the ending (I don’t like ambiguous endings).
