mrsgreenberg 's review for:

Son by Lois Lowry

2.0

---

I read "The Giver" for the first time just a couple of months ago. I fell in love with it! I was so terribly disappointed, however, when I read "Son." The book seems to lack the emotion of the other books in the series. It's almost like this was a last-ditch effort to tie the series up and the author didn't have a clear idea of where she was going. Parts of the book dragged on for way too long, but the end seemed to be rushed. Like some other reviewers said, it was hard to care about the characters in "Son."
