Son by Lois Lowry
Told in three separate story lines, Lois Lowry's Son combines elements from the first three novels in her Giver Quartet - The Giver (1994 Newbery Medal winner), Gatherine Blue, and Messenger - into a breathtaking, thought-provoking narrative that wrestles with ideas of human freedom. Thrust again into the dark, claustrophobic world of The Giver, readers will meet an intriguing new heroine, fourteen-year-old Claire. Jonas from The Giver is here too, and Kira, the heroine of Gatherine Blue. In a final clash between good and evil, a new hero emerges.The Giver is one of my favorite books so I'm so excited to return to that world! I haven't read Messenger yet, so I'll have to get to that before Son is released on October 2, 2012.

Really interesting-I can't believe there's going to be another story set in that world. Love that there's a heroine this time!
