This book is amazing. The plot is intense, and it just flows so well.
There's this boy Jonas, and he lives in a utopian society. The world he's grown to know is one that's so structured that an individual's emotions barely exist. In his world, people lives are dictated to them...who they will become, what they will do - is not in their control.
I can't begin to describe the journey you will go through as you read this book, the sequence of events keep a very strong hold on the reader.
The content is unlike any you would expect and as such, it has lead to the book being banned from elementary schools on more than one occasion.
I read this back in grade six, and since then I haven't found any other that comes close to it.
