It's Monday! What Are You Reading? (Sept 15)

This is a weekly meme hosted by Book Journey.
The books I'm currently reading are:

 1) The Giver by Lois Lowry: I'm seeing the movie next week and so far, this book has been SOOO good. Glad I'm getting back into the dystopian mood.
Synopsis: Jonas's world is perfect. Everything is under control. There is no war or fear or pain. There are no choices. Every person is assigned a role in the Community. When Jonas turns twelve, he is singled out to receive special training from The Giver. The Giver alone holds the memories of the true pain and pleasure of life. Now, it is time for Jonas to receive the truth. There is no turning back.

2) Since You've Been Gone by Morgan Matson: Saying goodbye to summer with this summery read!
Synopsis: The Pre-Sloane Emily didn't go to parties, she barely talked to guys, she didn't do anything crazy. Enter Sloane, social tornado and the best kind of best friend—the one who yanks you out of your shell.  
But right before what should have been an epic summer, Sloane just… disappears. No note. No calls. No texts. No Sloane. There’s just a random to-do list. On it, thirteen Sloane-selected-definitely-bizarre-tasks that Emily would never try… unless they could lead back to her best friend. 
Apple Picking at Night? Okay, easy enough. 
Dance until Dawn? Sure. Why not? 
Kiss a Stranger? Wait… what? 
Getting through Sloane’s list would mean a lot of firsts. But Emily has this whole unexpected summer ahead of her, and the help of Frank Porter (totally unexpected) to check things off. Who knows what she’ll find? 
Go Skinny Dipping? Um…

What are you reading this week?
