The Giver is the classic award-winning novel that inspired the dystopian genre and a major motion picture adaptation for 2014 starring Jeff Bridges, Meryl Streep, Katie Holmes and Taylor Swift.
It is the future. There is no war, no hunger, no pain. No one in the community wants for anything. Everything needed is provided. And at twelve years old, each member of the community has their profession carefully chosen for them by the Committee of Elders.
Twelve-year old Jonas has never thought there was anything wrong with his world. But from the moment he is selected as the Receiver of Memory, Jonas discovers that their community is not as perfect as it seems. It is only with the help of the Giver, that Jonas can find what has been lost. And it is only through his personal

In this stunning ninth book in the New York Times bestselling
Keeper of the Lost Cities series, Sophie and her friends discover
the true meaning of power - and evil. Sophie Foster changed the
game. Now she's facing impossible choices: When to act. When to
trust. When to let go. Her friends are divided and scattered, and
the Black Swan wants Sophie to focus on their projects. But her
instincts are leading her somewhere else. Stellarlune - and the
mysterious Elysian - might be the key to everything. But finding
truth in the Lost Cities always requires sacrifice. And as the
Neverseen's plans sharpen into terrifying focus, it appears that
everyone has miscalculated. The Lost Cities' greatest lie could
destroy everything. And in the battle that follows, only one thing
is certain: nothing will ever be the same. Books in the Keeper of
the Lost Cities series: Keeper of the Lost Cities Exile Everblaze
Neverseen Lodestar Nightfall Flashback Legacy Unlocked
A teenage girl stumbles out of an alley in Ottawa, concussed, with
no memory of her life. Fleeing sword-wielding operatives with
inexplicable mental abilities, she soon learns that her name is
Zoe, and that she not only possesses the same abilities, but is
extraordinarily skilled in martial arts. As she scours Toronto for
clues about her identity, she finds others like her, and is given
refuge at the Academy, an international school for Telepaths. As
fragments of her childhood return, she begins to suspect that she
may not like who she once was-that she may be part of a shadowy
organization more powerful than anyone suspects, and that she will
soon be swept up in events that are thousands of years in the
making.
