I know I should, but I've heard they aren't as easy of a read as The Giver.

I read it about a year ago, and a few weeks ago, I was struggling to remember which literature-society built their naming system by syllables according to age. I was asking Jason about it because I could have sworn it was an old classic - it had that feel to it in my mind. So even if i didn't necessarily love the book to start with, it made a seriously permanant impression on me.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026099426503180472noreply@blogger.com
