If anyone is voting for Harry Potter without having read The Giver, I really really really suggest you read it first. It's not too long, you can likely finish it well within the week. It is a really really really good book. Lois Lowry at her best.

| The Giver doesn't sound like a book I'd enjoy. "With echoes of Brave New World..." I couldn't stand Brave New World. |

| What if you read the giver and found it was a hopelessly horrible unimaginative fantasy book? |

The Giver was good. wordcross is right about that much, but I just could not go against Harry Potter. I suppose I could have gone the other way just to give word some company, but...

Oh... oh... two of my very very favourite children's books.
The Giver was my favourite for years... Prisoner Of Azkaban is merely my favourite HP book. I guess that settles it for me. Plus, I'm scared of HP advancing. |

| Plenty of adults read Harry Potter. It's unfair to classify it as a children's book. Same could probably be said about the giver. |

| I did not find the world creative. I mean, it was kinda creative, but dull to me. |
