Matched by Ally Condie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Oh my goodness!
I dont know what it is, but I'm really loving dystopian society books now.
This book completely sucked me in. Its about a girl named cassia who lives in a society where rules are made and no one breaks them in fear of what the punishment could be. In this society its another rule to hold a ball and invite all the 16YO kids and their families to see who they're matched with.
In this society when you turn 16 you are to be matched to someone of the opposite sex, whom you will end up being married to. this is a sacred tradition and its the way the government gets to decide who you should be with. at first cassia is matched to her best friend and shes happy.
only when she goes home to view her micro card to find out more about her match, Cassia realizes that she's actually matched to two people, which is very rare, and shes scared to tell anyone. she has to pick friendship or passion. And the government is also keeping something secret.
There are too many rules and absolutely NO freedom. Cassia needs to find out what's going on.
I LOOOOVVEE this book. I just purchased CROSSED which is the sequel. In MATCHED you figure out who she ends up picking.. and the second one, CROSSED, all the secrets become unleashed. Can't wait to read the second one!!!
I definitely reccomend this book to anyone!
