Son

Meh! That is how I felt when it ended. In fact this book underwhelmed me and made me wished she had stopped with the previous book. It would have wrapped up the series nicely. This story was often disjointed and felt like a clunky read. I would have rather the story been about Gabe returning to his home, so we could see what had happened to the town after they left. A mother's love is a great thing, but it could not carry this series, a series much more about self discovery and making the most of talents. This just did not fit.

Also just a burning question I had through the entire series.
Why do all of the other villages seem so primitive compared to the original village in The Giver?
