The Giver. it was in my fifth grade class (I was 11), and I was the kid who would read chapters ahead. when I got to the part where the smaller twin was euthanized before the rest of my class did, I spent the rest of the class period sobbing in the bathroom. it affected me pretty severely due to having an infant brother at the time, along with little prior exposure to the themes as I was raised in a pretty sheltered environment. I really wish I never read ahead in that book - or read it at all.
