By Lois Lowry

Jonas' world is perfect. Everything is under control. There is no war or fear or pain. There are no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the Community. When Jonas turns twelve, he is singled out to receive special training from The Giver. The Giver alone holds the memories of the true pain and pleasure of life. Now, it is time for Jonas to receive the truth. There is no turning back.

Do you guys remember The Giver? I think I read it in grade five or six as it was a part of the school curriculum. I remember really liking this book and I ended up reading it in a few days. Well, I think it's time for a re-read because it is being produced into a movie. It will be released August 15, 2014. I'm quite excited for it!
