This book is all about never giving up while having faults you can do anything. Lois Lowry wrote this book to show what the world could come to in the future after destruction. It shows what a normal way of life is for a young girl who is determined to make things right in her village. I think a lot of people should read this book, because it goes along great with the rest of the books. Kira is a girl that is by herself now in a village that is all about chaos. Kira has a talent to sew and dye threads after learning from an old lady and her own mother.  Instead of using numbers for age they use syllables to determine age. The secrets in the village are tremendous and will leave you shocked in the end. The author is also the author of the Giver and it is also part of the series. Kira is a two-syllable girl with a big heart and no mother or father. She is a sewer but has twisted leg to leave her to have no one marry her.  I really liked this book, because of the plot twist and everything in between. The characters make you wonder what really happened to them while at the same time love them and hate them. The main character Kira has you sad happy and everything in-between.  This book keeps you wondering what will happen next. Lois Lowry makes you wonder if this could happen in real life. The twists make you go wow, and shocking. It is a really good book and I think that everybody should read it.
