Matched by Ally Condie


Rating: Great Read

Synopsis: Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows he is her ideal mate . . . until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. The Society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.

My Review: I think that Ally Condie has an amazing way of describing a world that is in the future. She made me think I was part of that world. I had no problem being right there experiencing everything Cassia was going through.  I loved the Society and how Cassia figured out things she wasn't suppose to. This is a quick read, a great story and was wonderfully written.  I now know why the series is so popular.  I can't wait to read the rest of the series.
