Chapters 5-8 ;)

On chapters 5-8 there have being a lot of things going on. In chapter 5 Jonas had for the first time Stirrings and also it was the first time he took pills to control those Stirrings.

 In chapter 6 the ceremonies started. First was the ceremony of One where the new children were given their names and family units. There Jonas and Asher were talking about the loss of a 4 because the couple that lost their child were getting a new one.

 In chapter 7 the ceremony of 12 started. Every body got their assignments except for Jonas.

In chapter 8, the Chief Elder told every one that Jonas didn't got his assignment because he was the selected.  in other words, he was the new Receiver.

 "'Asher,' she said, 'thank you for your childhood'" 
I loved this quote. When I was reading it caught my attention because even though she says that to everyone, it makes them feel special, or at least, that is what I think. She had being observing them since they were born. She had seen them grow their hole life. But still I have one question, does  she really mean it?


I have like these last chapters, specially chapter 8. I look forward to continue reading because from my lasts experiences, I know that when you read more the book, it becomes more interesting. I predict that Jonas will finally understand what is the Capacity to See Beyond and that he has that ability and he will be a good student and he will learn all the things that the Giver will taught him and very fast.
