Jonas is the main character in the book and movie. He struggled with his job that he was given. He was given the job of a receiver which is he has to look at memories. In the movie it really showed how everything happened. I liked the movie better than the book. Jonas really showed his love for Fiona more in the movie than the book.

If it was like the beginning of the book and movie there would be nothing to live for. The world was really mindless if they didn't care if a baby died. It was pretty unreal to think of yourself not having your own family. You can't express yourself with love
