A Book Reviewed: Matched by Ally Condie

Matched.jpg

Hey guys! How's it hangin?! Today I'm going to tell you more about the book Matched. It's an awesome love story that takes place in a "dystopian future." (Wikipedia called it that, not me, so they get the credit) If you've ever heard of the Possession book series by Elana Johnson, and you liked it, then you'll love this one. Actually, this book came first, but both of these books have a similar plot. But Anyway, I don't want this book review to turn into a book comparison, I'll do that next post, so I'll stay back on track for ya. Anyway my friends, just sit back and take it easy, and I'll share with you the book review for Matched, found right inside the cover on the flap of the jacket. Tell me what you think! And remember, none of the following words are my own.

IN THE CITY, OFFICIALS DECIDE.

WHO YOU LOVE. WHERE
YOU WORK. WHEN YOU DIE.

Cassia has always trusted their choices. It's hardly any price to pay for a long life, the perfect job, the ideal mate. So when her best friend appears on the Matching screen, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is the one... until
she sees another face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. Now Cassia is faced with with impossible choices: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path no one else has ever dared follow -- between perfection and passion.

Matched is a story for right now and story-telling with the resonance of a classic.
