Giften by Leyla Suzan
4.0
I’ll say from the beginning that I loved this book; it was interesting, addictive and with a human touch that made you feel part of the story from the first page.
Giften is about a dystopian world, where people live in small communities and controlled by some dark men called Mags who dominate them with fear and stealing their food. The story is told by a teenage girl living at the Field, Ruthie, who will see her life changed when one of her friends is kidnapped from the Field because is Giften.
The story will show us a society that needs to survive without food and that is afraid every day that the “men in black” will return to kill them or kidnap their children. Let’s be honest, this is not a way to live and when Ruthie discovers that is a Giften too, she knows that her life and the ones surrounding her is in danger; so she decides to leave the community but not alone, surrounded with people that loves her. This trip will show her that in any fight there’s a good and a bad side, but that nothing is ever totally black or white, we live in a grey world.
I think this is really good adventure book, it will keep any reader, young or adult, invested in the story, also I would love to know more about the characters and how everything will change for them!
