The Giver
So, I just finished reading "The Giver" by Lois Lowry. It was interesting. Right from the beginning I could see where the book was going with all it's "sameness". But the end, well, it left me for wanting. I know I have my own conclusions about the end, but wondered if anyone else had read the book, and what your take on the ending might have been. Anyone care to share?

Hi Chantelle! Lovely meeting you on the blogosphere.
I actually really love this book--one of my favorites. Not sure why....probably just the vivid pictures I get from the writing.
What did it leave you wanting?
I guess I was looking for a more complete ending. Where did he end up? Was there something really there? Or was it a hallucination? I guess I was just left with some questions I wanted answered.
Kind of like life.
HEY!! You're in BIG trouble for not telling me that you have a blog. I don't know how I have missed out on such JOY for all these months. Hurt feelings aside, I would love to see even more posts now that I've found this treasure trove.
As for the question about the Giver, I haven't read it for a very long time and now you are making me want to. Let me get back to you in a month or so.
