In preparation for the movie release, I reread The Giver by Lois Lowry

IMO, much better than the two Hunger Games books I read. I like when evil isn't portrayed as blatantly evil. IMO, true evil often is much more subtle and can be very appealing. So many people today seem to seek sameness, regardless of what that sameness may be. Choice is good, and making good choices should be difficult. We are not honed to be useful by a soft and easy life.
