Lol I remember having to read that in grade 7.. Little childish but yes good book.

you're an idiot...



yes, i know. she writes children books...
this one is more for teenagers though.
just because it was targeted for young audiences doesn't mean it's bad...

notice the "but yes good book"

Agreed - I read this about 10 years ago, but I still remember how much I loved it. It really brought about a love for dystopian sci-fi that I've held on to quite well. Any Giver fans should check out the classic stories that it borrows so much from - 1984, Fahrenheit 451, Brave New World, The Anthem, etc. All excellent books that make you want to go overthrow some commies.

What a fucking moron. Guess your fg does not make up for how stupid you are. /Rage.

Anyway everyone has read The Giver. Even potheads have read The Giver, it's that junior high school book that everyone has read and no one remembers.

ya, i love reading similar books.
i've read 1984, animal farm, fahrenheit 451, and others recently.

Obviously this isn't true. Everyone in this thread seems to remember the book. I read it in seventh grade also: loved it then, love it now.

I never had to read it for school, I just read it on my own accord... but yes this book turned me onto the dystopian genre.

that's when i read it

What I meant is, people remember it, but only that it was a really good book and that the general theme was focused around utopia. If they remember it detail for detail that would be pretty impressive.
