DESCRIPTION:Eight ordinary people. One extraordinary choice.It seems like 
 any other day. You wake up, drink a cup of coffee, and head out.But today,
  when you open your front door, waiting for you is a small wooden box. The
  contents of this mysterious box tells you the exact number of years you w
 ill live. From suburban doorsteps to desert tents, every person on every 
 continent receives the same box. In an instant, the world is thrust into a
  collective frenzy. Where did these boxes come from? What do they mean? Is
  there truth to what they promise?As society comes together and pulls apar
 t, everyone faces the same shocking choice: Do they wish to know how long 
 they&#039;ll live? And, if so, what will they do with that knowledge? The
  Measure charts the dawn of this new world through an unforgettable cast o
 f characters whose decisions and fates interweave with one another: best f
 riends whose dreams are forever entwined, pen pals finding refuge in the u
 nknown, a couple who thought they didn&#039;t have to rush, a doctor who c
 annot save himself, and a politician whose box becomes the powder keg that
  ultimately changes everything.Enchanting and deeply uplifting, The Measur
 e is an ambitious, invigorating story about family, friendship, hope, and 
 destiny that encourages us to live life to the fullest.
