Monday Guest Blogger

Welcome to another week! Here is our first student blogger review of The Giver. Each day this week we will have another great student review! Thanks to Evan for this 5 star review!

The Giver

By Lois Lowry
Book 1 in Giver quartet
By Evan
The Giver is an excellent dystopian future novel while still staying realistic. The politics, being my favorite part, is very likely for the future of many countries. Personally, I think it takes how we think the world should be and it shows results that could come out of it.


I think as well as the politics it is a great coming-of-age story. The main character, Jonas, I like how he becomes more complex and you can really relate to him as a person. Jonas changes from lawful with no sense of good or evil, to lawful with a sense of good, to being more chaotic with a concept of good. The plot is a twin peak with two climates instead of one. This complexity will hook readers on page 1. This coming of age and warning book is a top-the-line book.
