Summary: the giver review thumbs down
Review: I think The Giver was a dumb book. The Giver was a boring bookand it had no points and it had a bad ending. The book was not a kidsbook but it would be a good book for old people or boring people who like to read.

Review: I really liked reading The Giver I thought it was a great book!Although there would be a few things I would change. I think that it'sa really good book for kids my age! I think that Lois Lowry is a great author, and I really liked his book The Giver! You really should read it I think that you will like it as much as I do, maybe even more. This is one of the books I'm sure to read again! Well I hope that you read The Giver and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Summary: Strange
Review: I really liked this book but it kinda wierded me out. It was definately different from any other book i have ever read. I think it should have explained certain things better though. I've read it twice. First in 5th grade and then in 8th. My 5th grade teacher refused to read it outloud because it dealt with some issues that may be not be suitable for 5th graders and i agree with him. Now as a freshman i think i understand the book alot more. I think it also makes you realise how much we take things for granted, like color or real families. I would recomend it to anyone looking for a different view of life.

Summary: Good
Review: It was avery sound book about a utopia and how it would be like. It was mostly in suspence but at times I found it dull and contrary. It semmed to repeate some aspects. It told about the comunity and how it was like. Jonas reiceived all the sads memories that were prior on the burden of the Giver. He was the one that got the job to have all the memories, happy, sad, etc. If you like science fiction you will absolutly love this book.

Summary: My thoughts of The Giver
Review: This was a very interesting book for me. It was unlike any other book I've read. It was exotic in a way. The people in this book were all the same. They all wore the same thing, did the same thing, ate the same thing, and basicly did everything everyone else was doing. When he was the Reciever of Memory, I was very happy. He was very nervous too. I expesially liked the part when he and Gabe left and found a new place to live. It was very heartwarming.

Summary: How te Giver made me feel
Review: This book was great. It has a lot of feelings in it. I liked how it was mixed up with sad and happy feelings. I think that it was sort of awkward because of how the town was and how everyone lived. I wonder what the author was thinking of when he wrote this.
