I agree that I didn't care for the ending and wished there had been just one more chapter. I think the lights at the end are Christmas lights though. It's interesting how different the book is reading it now that I have my own children too - much different than when I was a teen.Lisa Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18094376914718794818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401276.post-20762112095786524012009-01-06T09:17:00.000-07:002009-01-06T09:17:00.000-07:00Cool...I'll have to keep a lookout for the follow-...Cool...I'll have to keep a lookout for the follow-ups.

This IS a favorite book. I have not yet read the sequel the author published to this book. I believe it is called Messenger and there may be a third one, but I am not quite sure, but I do know there is a second one.Kelvin Oliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14387828915820347760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401276.post-64021662095712106142009-01-05T15:35:00.000-07:002009-01-05T15:35:00.000-07:00Let me know if you like reading it again Kevin.Bri...Let me know if you like reading it again Kevin.<BR/><BR/>Brii, I haven't read <I>Lani Garver</I>, but I'll add it to my list.Okiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01393689307300304035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401276.post-74509400545496923582009-01-05T15:14:00.000-07:002009-01-05T15:14:00.000-07:00i haven't had the chance to read "The Giver" yet, ...i haven't had the chance to read "The Giver" yet, but after reading your reveiw, i may bump it up a bit farther on my list. <BR/><BR/>have you read "What Happened to Lani Garver" by Carol Plum-Ucci? you seem like you might like it.Brii333https://www.blogger.com/profile/12103566026506314469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8401276.post-91755285418128546522009-01-05T14:55:00.000-07:002009-01-05T14:55:00.000-07:00I enjoyed this book as well.
