I chose 3 other books that I would like to read that are also in this genre.
Uglies - Scott Westerfeld
It's about teenagers that turn equally beautiful at the age of 16. It sounds kinda like the Giver, everyone being equal that is. And then the uglies deciding to keep their natural beauty just as Jonas decided to stand up for his feelings.
The Forest of Hands and Teeth - Carrie Ryan
It's about a village ruled by the Sisterhood, rumored the only human community left, for as the rest of the earth is filled with Zombies.
Libyrinth - Pearl North
It's about a girl who speaks with books. She's a librarian in a future community. By understanding these books, she tries to stop a war between two different communities.
Oh and on the other note. I need to identify the point of view in the Giver.
The point of view is from Jonas's eyes. We only know what he knows.
''But why can't everybody have the Memories? I think it would seem a little bit easier if the memories were shared. You and i wouldn't have to bear so much by ourselves, if everybody took a part." The Giver sighed, "Your right," he said. "But then everybody would be budened and pained. They don't want that. And that's the real reason the Receiver is so vital to them and honored. They selected me -- and you -- to lift the burden from themselves."
