<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 34.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> The Giver</span><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: 14.6667px; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: 14.6667px; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: red;">I think that the movie was better in my opinion. Many may disagree but this is my reasoning why I think that the movie was better that the book. First off the movie had more action and suspense, and a bit of a plot twist. In the movie we got to see more interactions between Fiona, Jonas and Asher and it gave us a bit more of help in understanding the things they describe in the book with a better visualisation of the writer intended to describe. This is why my opinion is that the movie is way better than the book.</span></span><br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: 14.6667px; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: red;"> The interactions with Jonas and Fiona were better planned out and made the story a little bit more interesting than it was already. Giving us a better view of why would Jonas fall for her. It also gave a slightly bit more of a character development for Fiona and Asher too, which In many people's opinion is very important to have a character development and not just have a character as a plot filler. Also the interactions the characters Fiona and Jonas had more comic relief or made the plot a bit more interesting to people who usually don't like this gender of book get interested with the movie.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: red; font-family: "georgia"; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Like i said before there's a grand amount of people who don't like this type gender or don't like to read. I feel that with action, suspense, and romance give the reader like me more of an intrigue towards the movie vs the actual Giver book. It has a little bit of everything for the viewers but still keeping as close to the story line but with some modifications along the way with small plot twist but it does not ruin the sense of the actual story line. Like in the book there was no action at all there was a little bit of suspense with the realising but in the movie theres was more action with the punch Jonas gave to Asher.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: red; font-family: "georgia"; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Last but not least the movie gives a better understanding of what the writer was trying to describe in the story. For example how the ceremony looked like in the beginning of the story and the ceremony of the lost. For me I couldn't really visualise those thing or most the things in the book really so this actually help me visualise many thing a lot better than in mine.Also It was interesting to know how the actual writer of this book visualised the giver because for me the giver totally different from i imagine him i imaged him more the character snow from the hunger games.For some people this reasons is not good because it “ruins” how other people see the book, but i think it's a splendid since it's hard to visualise the story if there's thing we never seen and we end up imagining something the writer dint intend to or dint want the reader to imagine. </span></div>

<h4>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i> Soon after Judith finishes helping wash the dishes and goes to her she hears a scraching noise coming from her closet after she had blown out the candle light.I have a huge feeling that the noise coming from her closet ain't no mice but the spirit of Jade <span style="color: lime;">green</span> coming back because of the <span style="color: lime;">green</span> silk frame Judith has.I think that by the next chapter its going to be like paranormal activity and more scarier and noticeable events are going to happen.</i></span></h4>
