** spoiler alert ** Upon turning twelve, each twelve years old child in the Community will receive an assignment. Unlike the other children who received Engineer or Laborer, Jonas was chosen to be the Receiver. The Receiver is the highest honor in the Community. As the Receiver, Jonas will carry all the memories of the past. Jonas begins to learn about things that no longer exist in his Community like color and love. The overall message of this book is that nothing is set in stone and you can always make changes if you focus and try. Even if something has been there for a long time does not mean you can't change it. Just like at Baruch, you can always voice your opinion and make a change. You can always start a new club that wasn't there before. I really enjoyed this book mainly because of how strong the message is. My generation can connect to this because the future of the world is in our hands. We are the future workers, doctors, politician and leaders. We can make a change just like Jonas could change the way his Community lives.
