beaundarrows 's review for:

Son by Lois Lowry
4.0

Somehow I managed to not be aware this book existed until very recently. 22 March 2015, in fact. But once I knew it I had to read it. And I found it quite enjoyable. It moved a lot more slowly than any of the others, but I also felt I learnt much more about The Community and the world than I did from the other 3. And I find this world fascinating.

The ending was a little abrupt, and not as satisfying as I'd hoped. Having said that, I was still sitting on the train as I finished reading, trying not to cry too much.

Definitely a 4 out of 5.
