Comparing The Giver to Gathering Blue
The Giver is different from Gathering Blue in many ways. Like the main characters. The main character in the giver is a boy named Jonas. The main character in Gathering Blue is A girl named Kira. They both have special ''abilities'' but they are both different. Jonas has the power to see colors that know one in else except the giver can see. Kira has the special ability to sew very quickly and create incredible art. The societies they live in are different since they have different rules and different customs. Like in The Giver, everybody in the village must share there feelings everyday. In Gathering Blue they do not do this. Though they do have rules life if your born defected you are going to be thrown into a place called the Field of the Beasts to be killed. My opinion about the books is that they are both equal. Since they both have action in them and the main place in the stories are both in villages that are supposedly perfect. Both of these books are good and can both be checked out at the public library.

Garrison-
I didn't read gathering blue but based on what you said it sounds like a really good book and i like how the author, Lowis Lowery, made the characters the same in all of the books(Messenger, Giver, Gathering blue).What you said makes me want to read gathering blue.
Your blog's nice and all, but maybe you could of added somethings about other chapters. Also, try to make it a little more interesting.
i like your detail
your chapter summaries are very helpful but can you finish them please:) thank you
