I chose The Giver as my related story for the book Uglies. the reason I chose this book was because it reminds me a lot of the book Uglies, in the Giver the people there are pretty much in a Utopia. They are to follow the rules there and people as well are seperated, the woman are on one side of the city while the men are on another side. Just like when you turn 16 in the uglies you get an operation, well in the giver once you turn a certain age you have to go to this building where they choose your mate and you have to make a child. The girls in the story are really young but when the men are involved they are a much older depending how the girl is. It also reminds me of the giver because Shay runs away because she doesn't want to have the operation done to her she doesn't see any point in it. In the giver there is a boy who runs away because he doesn't like the way things are ran in the city he lives in. But on top of that he had fallen in love with this girl in the other city and its forbidden. He wants to be with her so he ends up running away to try and be with her. So i thought that The Giver was a good choice for choosing a story or movie that relates to the book Uglies.
