Summary of this Book... | ||
There is a community where everything is the same, and nobody makes choices for theirselves. This story is about Jonas, and his experiences. He is chosen to be the Receiver of Memory, and he has to hold the burden of pain, but love and happiness too. Nobody else in the community really knows what love, music, colors, hate, or pain is.

This book was disturbing to a high extreme!! They kill little babies if they aren't developing quick enough, and if twins are born, one is killed. They described how the child is killed, and it was sickening. They do the same to the elderly. SICK! | ||
