Gathering Blue is the 2nd book in the Giver quartet. It follows a girl named Kira. Kira is a girl with a twisted leg who lives in a more primitive society where people who cannot work die. Her only friend is a boy named Matt, a one syllable boy.
 Jonas receives the memories of the past, good and bad, from the current Receiver, a wise old man who tells Jonas to call him the Giver. The Giver transmits memories by placing his hands on Jonas's bare back. The first memory he receives is of an exhilarating sled ride.

Hope This helps.
