After reading some of the other reviews, I was hesitant to read this book. In all honesty it is very different from the giver, but it is a good book.
The best way I can tell you how to read this book is to assume it takes place in another village outside of the giver village or just forget about the giver when reading this book. This book revolves around a girl that has a handicap with one of her legs, she experience loss, she grows throughout the story and learns the truth.

I read this book in 2014 durning NTC. I honestly did not think I would enjoy this book but I was wrong. One day before I was going to spend 2 weeks without phones, showers an all that good stuff. I went to the px to buy a book or two for this field training. I saw a whole bunch of books but this one an some other book caught my interest the most. So during most of ntc I did forget about these books until the last 3 days. When one of the vehicles could no longer move or be fixed. So during the last three days, i did nothing but read an wait. An this book was surprisingly good. The main character was a little annoying and the plot was simple.
