Perfectfor teenagers 12-16
My name is Lucy and I am 13 years old. I absolutely love this book. It provides great messages to all teenagers. It made me believe, that though i am weak, that shows that i am stronger than others.

Could be better.
I believe Gathering Blue my Lowis Lowry was a wonderful book. However, when compared to The Giver, it is no good. Personally, The Giver was a much, much better book and Lowry has mistakenly downgraded.

Sad, but a good read
I thought it was pretty good. It was a little sad at first, though.

Okay, but Doesn't Live Up To Its Full Potential.
This book was okay. I think the story was an excellent, creative, and awesome idea, but the way it was written made it a bit dull. I also don't understand why people call this the sequel to the Giver. It's completely different from that book.

Actually, it can look the Giver square in the eye
There are some books that try so hard to deal with ideas that it forgets about story (To Kill a Mockingbird comes to mind). None of the three sci-fi Lois Lowry books are like this. They deal with conspericy, deception, the future, and make it entertaining to read about. It is just the story of a girl mending a dress, but the scope is so much bigger, with her entire world slipping out from under her. The ending wasn't exceptional, but overall, great book.

I thought this book was very good and had a good message. It didn't seem to have anything to do with The Giver, but maybe the third book will tie everything together.

Strange people! Disabilities! Lost Fathers!
This book was pretty good. There were a lot of large words, so if you are under 10, you should read it with a parent. I would highly recommend reading The Giver first, so you get an idea of what a utopia is. I didn't get any nightmares, so I guess it was good!
