I think I found this on Kindle unlimited randomly. I absolutely LOVED it!!!. So good, and I actually considered re-reading it for the very same prompt you have it under.
Hope you enjoy!

I love The Giver and the rest of the quartet, they were quick and easy reads :)

I'm looking forward to this book....I'm a history buff, so this one should be right up my alley...

The Giver was a book that I should have read this year, but it got switched out for something else. I am anticipating White Oleander, I just love the title and everyone that I know seems to have really like it. TGWPWF: I read book one for this years challenge, so I figured what the heck?
