I thought The Giver was a very creative book. The story is very interesting,and makes you want to read more. It is easy to follow,and hard to put down. The Giver is very well written,and I hope there will be a sequel!

This book was the best book are grade 7 class read all year. I thnk everyone enjoyed it. Our teacher picked avery good book for our science fiction unit. I recommened this book tho teachers and all students!Ü

This book is an exciting, and suspense thrilling book. I may only be 13, but I people think i don't uynderstand the meaning of a book. Lois Lowry did a very good job telling my eighth grade class about this new mysterious world. She expressed the feelings of each character very nicely. If anyone would say otherwise, I would wonder why they think that.
It is true that it is a sad book, but it kept me in suspense and I like that in my reading. My class was very surprised about the ending and about how they released people, in fact I was deeply saddened by the way they release. I was touched by the thought that Jonas, the young Six, Gabriel, and The Giver were the only ones with pale eyes.
If anyone would like to know more aboiut this book,I recomend reading it. I will read it again even though I have just finished today. It was a great book, Lois Lowry if you are reading this review, I will tell you right now that it was a painful, joyful, hateful, great book. I have to admit, while I was reading this book in class, my teacher would stop reading at the best parts, so I was little upset about that, but I finally got to the end and it was wonderful. All my thanks to Lois Lowry for her book.
Dear Lois Lowry,
If you are reading this please consider writing a sequel to this book. I would be greatful to find out what happens next to Jona and little Gabe. If you decide not to write a sequel please contact me somehow, I would be greatful to hear from you too. well that is all for now.

I think this book is one of the best books I've ever read. I liked how Jonas was so innocent and unaware in the beginning of the book and by the end was breaking all the rules to do what he felt was right. The book is a great for giving the little guys courage to do whatever they want.
