most people really liked this book, but personally I found this book to be quite boring,as well as a slow read. It is about this Boy named Jonas and his job is to recieve memories from this man called the Giver that was chosen for him at the age of twelve. In Jonas's "perfect society" there is no color, choices, music, or feelings. They also chose for you who your husband/wife will be. And they choose what jobs each person will do.

I would not recommend this book to anyone.
