Son by Lois Lowry
3.0
It's not that this book wasn't good, it just wasn't what I wanted it to be. I was expecting something about Jonas and Claire's original community. I wanted to find out what happened to them after their Receiver left for a second time, how they fared with all the memories Jonas had been given, etc. I feel like between the first three books, Jonas' storyline had been pretty well wrapped up. And let's be honest, I was way more interested in the community that made The Giver what it is than in the other little villages.
On another note, I wasn't a huge fan of the "love triumphs evil" thing at the end. I mean, it just seemed like that wasn't what The Giver was about, so it was weird for the series to end up there.
