Another unexpected 5 ⭐ for a dystopian book! Thanks for sending me this book @TheAromaofBooks ! Stacking the next one (and won't put it off for so long).

Cinfhen This is a very popular novel! It‘s taught in almost EVERY middle school/ high school in the US. (edited) 1y
jenniferw88 @Cinfhen It's not taught at all in the UK! 1y

AshleyHoss820 This is one of my favorites! So poignant! ☺️ 1y
Librarybelle I did like this one! A modern classic! 1y
TheAromaofBooks This book is so thought-provoking!! I did not enjoy the other books in the series as well as I felt they lacked the creepy “this could be your future“ vibe that this book exudes so well. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts when you get to them!! 1y
Bluebird @Cinfhen it wasn‘t taught in mine! Lol. I never heard if the book until a few years ago. Great review! Stacked! 1y
Cinfhen Did you grow up in the US @Bluebird ? I feel like it was a staple during the 90‘s and aughts when my kiddos were in school and actually my son was taught the Giver in Israel as part of his English for English speakers class in 9th grade. 1y
Bluebird @Cinfhen yes, California. I just looked up the book and see it was written in 1993. That explains it, it was written well past my school days 😂 1y
Cinfhen Ha! That‘s the answer @Bluebird 1y
