What I Read This Week

This week I started to read the book The Giver by Lois Lowry. The way this author writes this book s very strange. The town that the author makes the people live in is a perfect society that never encounters problems. The town doesn’t have seasons, years, and stores; in short it has about 22% of what we have here. They never need to make anything because weekly a plane fly’s in and drops supplies. Every job in the town is only there to make sure the town stays in shape and encounters no problems. Every citizen is assigned a job when they turn 12 except in that town they call a 12 year old a 12. The main character is assigned a very unusual job where he would experience thing that some people would never hear about. He would lie on a bead and the person who had the job before him would put his hands on his back and he would experience whatever the person wanted him to. Were I am at he experienced sledding, sun light, and sunburn. His job is collecting memories. With the help of the previous person who had the job he will experience any event that has a special feeling. The events that he will experience will not always be positive so he may feel pain. Eventually he will have to fully be in charge of his job without the help of the person who had the job before him.
I will keep you informed on what is happening in my story.
