The Novel The Giver Novels & Stories

Gael shakes his head. Gael Slater: My dad gave it to me. The boy shrugs moving around the desk. Halo Noel: Can I see it? Gael hands Halo the leather-bound book, reading the simple yet intricate title, impressed. Halo Noel: Tom Sawyer. He runs his right hand over the worn leather spine. Halo Noel: Is your father coming to pick you up? Halo checks his watch, notices the time, and sits up. - Usually, Gael would be the first to leave, as his father was never tardy. So, seeing the boy hanging back feels odd to the attentive teacher.

I was made for him, and he for me. The End. Hello, everyone! I’m Tess, the author of this novel. I hope you enjoy it. I believe this is the beautiful ending we’ve all been waiting for as we begin reading the story. I don’t know how many people will read my novel all the way to the end—or if anyone will read it at all—but I want to sincerely thank you if you have. This is my very first novel. I know I’ve made mistakes, and it might be a little slow at times, yet I am proud that I wrote it. Dante and Evelyn’s story has lived in my imagination for years, filling my nights with thoughts, dreams, and emotions. I’m grateful that I could bring it to life in words.

he said. She looked at the notebook. At the underlined sentence. She thought about November. About Thomas Adeyemi Harlow arriving. About a baby who would be born into a house with this frame on the wall and this bread made every Sunday and this story of a man who had written a love letter from Geneva in 1977 that had become the foundation of something that changed how the world understood people who survived things. She looked at Ethan. “Come here,” she said. He came. She kissed him in the bedroom with the notebook in her hand and the Sunday outside and the city below and everything quiet and warm and exactly right.

The gift was a novel, 'The Chronicles of a Legend'. "Who brought this!?" I yelled at Sandra who had already walked away. "Ma'am!" Sandra's voice boomed from the sitting room as she returned to the bedroom. "Who brought this?" I asked again. "I don't know. Someone within the crowd told me to give it to you specifically. Any problem?" "No, thanks," I responded and shut the door after her. 'The Chronicles of a Legend' was my favourite novel when I was a kid. My father stopped me from reading it to the end. He burnt it to ashes in my presence and ordered me to resume my workout.

“Agreed?” I nodded, relief loosening the tension in my chest. “I was about to say the same thing. Right now, Nova is the only person whom I have told about this and she could keep a secret.” He nods, relieved to hear my answer. Then he hesitated, as if weighing his next words. “Where did you get the book?” he finally asked, his voice low. I straightened, steadying myself before answering. “Giselle gave it to me,” I answered watching his reaction closely. “I don’t know where she got it.”

Hope stepped forward first. “You taught me that love could hold power. And power could choose peace.” Ethan followed. “You showed me that genius means nothing without gentleness. That legacy without presence is just noise.” Liana shared her gratitude. Ayden offered a poem. Then Grace walked forward slowly, holding something behind her back. “I wrote a new story,” she said. “It’s called The Last Flamekeeper.” She opened her notebook and read: “Once, there were two people who thought they were building a path.

"What's truly a shame is that such a wonderful man ended up with such a terrible wife. If you ask me, Edwin belongs with Esme. They're the perfect match." Esme blushed, nudging Mom shyly before sneaking a glance at Edwin. He lowered his head and sipped his wine. He neither refuted nor agreed. But his answer came during the gift exchange. He presented Esme with a ruby necklace. It wasn't just any necklace. It was his late mother's heirloom. He had told me about it, promising that he would personally place it around my neck on our fifth wedding anniversary. Now, he was placing it around Esme's neck. I watched without a trace of emotion, my heart completely hollow.

For Evelyn, with love from Dad. Blake's gift arrived three days before Christmas—a simple cloth book with textured pages for Evelyn to explore, and a letter: *"Dear Aloe,* *Enclosed is something for Evelyn's first Christmas. The book isn't impressive, but apparently babies like textures, and this has lots of different fabrics to explore. I asked the prison librarian for recommendations.* *I hope your first Christmas as a mother is everything you hoped for. You've earned the peace.* *- Blake"* Evelyn loved the cloth book immediately, grabbing at the different textures with intense concentration. Watching her explore something Blake had chosen felt oddly significant—like he was part of our liv

I nodded slowly, realizing what his answer truly meant: the Living Book wasn't here. Whether he didn’t trust me, or the danger was too great to carry it along, I didn’t know. But I stopped searching. Instead, I buried myself in the small cube Zevarion had gifted me, fingers working it restlessly as I tried to anchor my thoughts in the memory of his warmth, his arms, his voice. Each night grew colder. Each morning, darker. And then, on the eleventh day, just as the book had warned, we reached it. The horses slowed, snorting uneasily. Even the wind stilled, as though the very earth held its breath.

Doris gave it to her as a birthday gift years ago, and she never opened it, the deceit there is the title didn’t hint on the nature of the novel. “Hmm mm”. Angela bit her lips, her thighs, trying to stop the throbbing in between her legs. “I guess I will just use this just once”. She laid down on her couch and started reading the novel. She went through the first page and covered her mouth in awe. “No way! This is literally p**n, how can Doris give me this as a gift, Doris!” She gasped in embarrassment. “This will not be good”. She bit her lips.
