So far I like these kinds of book and I like how the person writes. About the book I find it pretty interesting but I'm still confused on a lot of thing's.

It gave a lot of information about the what the ceremony was going to be like and some experiences of the mom and dad.

It explain a bit about the last girl who got chosen and now she was "she whom not to be named". Everyone is kinda treating Jonas in a different way.

It now makes since how the Reciver turn into the Giver. It makes since because the Reciver receives all the memories. Once he has received all of the memories, he would now become the Giver. This happens because now that reciver is giving his memories. Also, they explain how it's like being given a memory. Lastly, they have something called climate control which I think they control the climate with. I think it's kinda sad that it's always cloudy for them and no one knows what sun or snow is.

We found out that all of the people are colour blind because of sameness. The "seeing the beyond" was just Jonas seeing the colour red. I personally don't understand the point of making them all colour blind. Also, more and more I'm finding out how little they have in they're community. Or maybe it's not that they don't have most things, maybe they're just colour blind and can't see it. Lastly, this changes everything because they don't know what colour is. This explains why it's so easy for everyone to be nice to each other. no one can see peoples differences so everyone looks alike.   ]]> 2021-02-25 16:44:36 UTC https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1241991404 Thoughts matthew_coish https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1241992160 I think that this chapter was kinda important. Jonas got to learn all of the colours, an dunderstands why nobody knows anything. I think it was weird when Jonas was thinking it was crazy when the thought came up of people picking their own jobs.

Okay I feel like I'm calling all of the chapters important now but that's because they are. This chapter explain love. The giver gave a memory of people such as kids, parents, and grandparent exchanging gifts and loving each other. Jonas had no clue what it was. The Giver had to explain love to Jonas. Jonas then went home to ask his parents "do you love me" and they said that it was a bad thing to say a word so vague. "you should say happy of my accomplishments" is what they said, meaning that they don't really know what love is. The know what's it's about but they never have felt it or known it.

It's cool seeing Jonas leaving with Gabriel and leaving the community. I think it was really smart of Jonas to use memories of cold snow to cool here body warmth to hid from the planes. Overall, this chapter was just Jonas and Gabriel running away.]]> 2021-03-12 16:44:57 UTC https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1303311455 Thoughts matthew_coish https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1303311742 This chapter was short and to the point. Jonas and Gab are very hungry or "starving" but they are still alive. Jonas and Gab do not like the rain. It's cold and wet and Jonas is very hurt. He has a sprained ankle and scrapes all over him. I think that it's weird that Jonas and Gab are in the real world. ]]> 2021-03-12 16:45:01 UTC https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1303311742 Thoughts matthew_coish https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1303312008 This was the last chapter of the book and it ended well. It showed that once they made it to the top of the cold snowy hill, they found something. Jonas found the sled, the one in his memories, and went down the hill on the sled. At the end he saw light in the distance. I think that this was a very good book and enjoy reading it. The ending was great and the entire book was engaging.]]> 2021-03-12 16:45:05 UTC https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1303312008 Details matthew_coish https://padlet.com/matthew_coish/mlwckjq1infxq5tl/wish/1303312492 Jonas can warm or cool himself with memories.
