Anthem's a great book, good choice

And I've wanted to check out Brave New World too

I don't want to read them :( It's for school, I have to read them and write 3 reports over them...

Interesting book.
Yeah, Anthem is really similar to the Giver, and A Brave New World is also of the same genre, although the subject matter is a bit different. I love those sort of books, unfortunately I never had them assigned for classwork. Only books like Wuthering Heights, Heart of Darkness, and the Scarlet Letter, which could never keep my interest

First time I've heard that... Why did you think so

I just didn't find the dialogue very interesting, I did enjoy the overall subject matter though, and I fucking hated the ending, but there are sequels so I guess it's not that bad.

You should check it out. It's about a guy in a society very similar to that in the Giver. There is no individuality, with individuals only purpose to serve the greater community, and those with new ideas or who seek to better themselves are persecuted. Much like the protagonist in the Giver, this man feels alienated and that there is something more to life that is being hidden from him. It's probably one of my favorite books
