If you haven’t finished the series, I really recommend it! Still, a great wrap-up with some memorable characters and events. I really enjoyed all four books, and thought the final one, Son, was particularly strong, except for a particular plot element that felt more fairy-tale-ish than the rest of the story. Son by Lois Lowry: The final book in The Giver Quartet - and I’m so glad I finally revisited this series! I’d read The Giver ages ago, but re-read it this year when my kiddo had to read it for school. He’s a reader too, so besides hanging out with hubby, there was lots of book time! It’s been a crazy week! My husband had a medical procedure (he’s fine, thanks!) and I took a few days off work so I could be home for things like fetching ice packs and plumping up pillows.


My Monday tradition, including a look back and a look ahead - what I read last week, what new books came my way, and what books are keeping me busy right now.
