The Giver is a children's novel by Lois Lowry. It is set in a society which is at first presented as a utopian society and gradually appears more and more dystopian. The novel follows a boy named Jonas through the twelfth year of his life. The society has eliminated pain and strife by converting to "Sameness," a plan that has also eradicated emotional depth from their lives.
I rewrote the ending of the novel for a school project and thought I'd share it:) let me know what you think.

Tyler joseph is a quiet 16 year old boy living alone in small apartment. He was homeschooled up until he turned 15 when his family was tragically killed in a car crash while he was attending piano practice.

And by now he'd quit all schooling and gave up with it all. He was done with this life. Josh dun is a 16 year old boy who'd been living away from home since he was 14 when his parents kicked him out.

He got fired for showing up late on his fifteenth birthday. With no where else to turn, he went into prostitution. Selling the only thing he had left so he'd have a place to call home. He had hit rock bottom. But still he kept a positive attitude and fought through the negative thoughts and horrible events that clouded his young life. Today was Tyler's birthday and he was annoyed as much as he was surprised to hear his cell phone ring loudly at 12 am beside him on his nightstand.He briskly picked up to hear one of his old friends on the phone and more voices he recognized in the background. He was bombarded by voices all sending the same message: happy birthday, be ready by 6 because we're all coming over. The line went down and Tyler groaned as he showered, got dressed, and then binge watched pretty little liers till there was a knock at the door. He got up and opened it with a slightly annoyed glance as he noticed an unfamiliar face. "Who's that?" he muttered inviting everyone in one by one. Even the purple haired fellow he didn't quite know yet. "Him? Oh, hes part of your present. He's a prostitite." he snickered.Complete![[DISCONTINUED!!]~The lone wolf~(Creepypasta x Animal!reader)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/353058545-256-k629547.jpg)
