Loved the story, the narrator, and how it tied together with The Giver. I will recommend this to my children. And friends.

So I read in grade school The Giver by Lois Lowry and decided to read Messenger on Audible because she inspired so much wonder as a young child to me. I was not disappointed! This was such an adventure of discovering ones true self and it makes me wonder if my true self is what I expect it to be as well. I feel like this book was just as good as The Giver and it gave me the same sense of wonder and thought as I had as a child!

Absolutely loved this

Hello I am Seoyeon from South Korea. I read this book because The giver was so intresting. Messenger is in a series, and I have read all but one. But, the other books were fun too. The main character in this book is Matty. Matty is a brave boy, and has special powers. He travels through the forest with Kira, who can only use one leg. I won't spoil the ending... Anyway, this book is very very very good!!
