One characteristic that can definitely be recognized for Jonas is curiosity fter being assigned the receiver, he is now experiencing memories from the past. He always asks for memories of colors, love, and joy, things that aren’t in his society today. His curiosity makes him want to nourish these feelings so he starts feeling emotions of love for Gabriel and his parents. “I like the feeling of love” (Loury 129).

One thing to be curious in my book is the release of Roberto. While Fiona and Jonas were talking and taking care of the old people, they started talking about this old man who was thrilled to leave the community. The back of the book tells of a terrible truth Jonas is going to uncover about the society he lives in, does this have anything to do with how happy Roberto was to leave? Also, where did he go after leaving?

One thing to be definitely curious about in my book is Jonas’s assignment. As the decision has not be made yet based on my progress so far in the book, I question what his future career will be. I also wonder what the apple had to do with anything, when Jonas started questioning the apple that also send questions through my head. Does it foreshadow something later to happen in the book? Does it symbolize anything?

One inciting moment in my book is when Jonas becomes apprehensive about his assignment for the ceremony of twelve. From now on, he would be assigned a job that would take part in the rest of his life. The elders were going to select his future and soon he will know what that future will be.
