Summer Reading Assignment Book 2

Another book that I read was The Giver by Lois Lowry. The protagonist, Jonas, lives in a world were everything is perfectly controlled. There are no cars, only bikes. Peoples' ages are forgotten after they become a "Twelve." During the "Ceremony of Twelve,"the new adults are given their job in the community. When Jonas is given a surprising and un-normal job, the job of receiver of memory, his life is changed forever. On the 1-5 scale, I rate this book at a 4. The storyline was great but the ending was a little confusing and the book was some-what short. I recommend this book to people who like adventure.

Summer Reading Assignment #1

For my summer reading assignment I read A Wrinkle in Time by Madelin L'Engle. It is the first of a series of 5 books. In it, the protagonist, Meg, meets up with three strange women, Mrs. Who, Mrs. Whatsit, and Mrs. Which. They take Meg, one of her friends, and her younger brother on a quest to find Meg's long lost father. On the way they encounter many dangers, including a mysterious creature called It. On a scale from 1-5 I would rate this book at a 2 because it was really confusing and not really engaging. I would recommend this book for people who like time travel and adventure.
