Lois Lowry is a great writer and although this book is not as good as Number the stars or the Giver I still really enjoyed reading it.

They called her Water Claire. When she washed up on their shore, no one knew that she came from a society where emotions and colors didn’t exist. That she had become a Vessel at age thirteen. That she had carried a Product at age fourteen. That it had been stolen from her body. Claire had a son. But what became of him she never knew. What was his name? Was he even alive? She was supposed to forget him, but that was impossible. Now Claire will stop at nothing to find her child, even if it means making an unimaginable sacrifice. Son thrusts readers once again into the chilling world of the Newbery Medal winning book, The Giver, as well as Gathering Blue and Messenger where a new hero emerges. In this thrilling series finale, the startling and long-awaited conclusion to Lois Lowry’s epic tale culminates in a final clash between good and evil.

This book is sad (in a way), so I wouldn't recommend it if you don't like that sort of thing. All the same, this is a GREAT BOOK. And VERY interesting. If you liked it, read the others in the series.

A good book, this is a book that gives an ending to the giver. I would recommend reading the other books in the series before you read this one.

Love, obligation, sacrifice, and loss. This book was AWESOME! I really like it. It was also a really good idea to separate it into parts: Before, Between, and Beyond. I've recommended this to a couple of my friends. This book was really good!
Is this a series?
Read The Giver first, then Son! Amazing!
I loved it!!! It made me cry in the end!! :)
