Rep Power: 2 | Re: The Giver It was alright. I'm not into that kind of emo futuristic stuff though. But still, it wasn't that bad.

Rep Power: 2 | Re: The Giver Yes. I found the overall story to be a bit too gloomy for my taste.

The novel would have been much less potent if it'd been happy all through.

Rep Power: 7 | Re: The Giver Well I haven't read the book in a while, so I would say it WAS amazing but technically it's still a story, so it IS amazing... Yeah, I'm crazy.

Rep Power: 4 | Re: The Giver Hmmm...the Giver. I think I remembered it. It was a black hardcover book that I burrowed from the library that I read it in 7th grade. It was one of my favorites and then I lost the school's copy and had to pay for it. XD Anyway, I liked how the story was told to the characters although I didn't really like the the way it left me hanging, to be quite honest. |

Rep Power: 1  | Re: The Giver Aww. Nostalgia strikes again. I remember reading it in the sixth grade; it's a shame, because I was so young I couldn't really appreciate just how wonderful a novel it is. I understood the storyline, but I couldn't grasp it tight enough. I'm sure if I went back and read it again today, I'd have a much higher appreciation for it.

Rep Power: 3 | Re: The Giver I don't like reading books most of the time unless they completely capture my interest. I like how the setting isn't revealed until you get into the story. that device is what prevents this book from becoming a movie I think.
