MODERATE SPOILERS

Today I will be reviewing a book that I just finished reading: Crossed, the second book of the Matched trilogy by Ally Condie. Click here to check my review on the first book, Matched.

Now, this one blew me away. I mean, the first book was already amazing, but this one is wordless.

 

This time the novel is told by both Cassia and Ky's alternating point of view. Cassia is trying to get to Ky, who's been sent to the Outer Provinces to, basically, die, and Ky is trying to get back to the Society to find Cassia. So this book makes you anxious to see what is going to happen, and you keep wishing for them to just meet each other, but then something happens and they get further apart, making you want to read the book non stop. That goes on into about half of the book, when they finally find each other.

In Crossed a lot of juicy secrets are revealed, from all of them, including the Society's, and new characters, that are just as captivating and misterious as the main ones, appears. It's interesting to see how they change and grow throughout this book, in comparison to the first one, as they find and see things they never expected to or knew it existed.

I don't want to say much more so I don't spoil the book for you, but it's basically the journey of Cassia and Ky to finding freedom from the Society and for themselves.

If you read Matched, I recommend you to read this one because it is even better and you are going to love it!

[BOOK REVIEW] Matched - Ally Condie

[BOOK REVIEW] Matched - Ally Condie

5 stars rating ally condie book review dystopian book fantasy matched romance romantic dystopian novel young-adult book

MINOR SPOILERS

I'm here today to review an amazing romantic dystopian book, called Matched, by Ally Condie. This is the first book of the Matched trilogy, and let me tell you right up front: it is worth reading.

       

The story is told by Cassia Reyes's, the main character, point of view, and it is about an utopic society where the government controls everything you do claiming it is for humanity's  own good. So the world is free of deseases, the people has their job chosen for  them based on their capability, they all wear the same clothing and they all die at the age of 80. But Cassia slowly realises, as she gets played by the Society, that the system in which she believed her entire life, isn't that perfect.

Now, when you start this book you think you can predict what is going to happen, and at first you are right: there's the forbidden love and the desire of freedom. But then as you read more and more, small details, that where previously there, but untold, are added to the plot, which changes everything.

The author has a really good writing style, so the book is really easy to read. If you haven't read a dystopian book yet, I recommend this to be the first one you do, because you are gonna love it if you don't, don't blame it on me though. And if you have read others, like Divergent and Delirium (and loved them), you're gonna like this one for sure.

So this is it for the review. I'm trying to tell you guys what the book is about, and what to expect of it, without boring you with an endless text and giving you too much spoilers, so I don't ruin the good parts of the story, but if you want me to give more details please let me know.

If there's a book you guys would like me to review, leave it in the comments.

If you've already read this one and I wrote something incorrect about it, let me know as well.

See you in the next review, xo
