Nah, I don't really want to read it, but the local theater did a play for it at one point... I think I may have tried out for it, but I didn't get in... no, wait, that was another play.

Yes, I've read it. Actually, I have a copy of it. x] I didn't like it much, though. Not my genre of literature, I suppose. __________________

Now that a lot of you guys are saying that it is a great book, I think I will go back there and pick up a copy tomorrow.

Personally, I think that Jonas and Gabriel survived.

I read The Giver last year in reading class, and I liked it.
I also like that it lets you imagine your own ending, but when I read it, I thought that Jonas and Gabriel died. __________________  Where did you get those stripes? |  | |

I have never heard of this book but now that you have brought it to my attention, I will definitely look for it in the library.
Thank You. | | | |
