The Giver was an amazing book that truly opens you up to the idea of is ignorance bliss. The book is about a perfect society that is so perfect it is almost boring. The community still has hidden flaws in it such as when babies or elders are released. People in the community believe that when someone is released they are taken elsewhere but truly people are just being murdered.

Jonas was super embarrassed when they skipped over his name during the ceremony of 12 but it was all worth it in the end when he earned the title of receiver. He now receives memories from the past such as snow and hills. I want to know more about sameness and why they decided to make everything the same.

I think that the giver is a overcoming the monster tale. The reason I think it's a overcoming the monster story is because our main protagonist is trying to overcome the elders, the monsters, who have changed his community into something else. By hiding the past they are able to mold this community the way they want it.

I am curious to what the crash really was and why it caused such a loud noise. I know that the loudspeakers said that it was simply a pilot crashing but I think there is more to the story. I thing that they are trying to cover up something bad in order to keep control of the town.
