I have finished reading the trilogy:- (Matched, Crossed and the finale Reached). Emily Maclean recommended reading the first book to me, Matched, and I was captivated on the very first page. The first book is about romance and following the Governments' controls and predictions. After reading the first book, I eagerly proceeded onto Crossed. I was charged up to read the second book but it baffled me. It felt very slow-paced and she showed too much of an obsession over a boy. The chapter changes from character to character confused me but I still read Reached because I don't like leaving things unfinished. The book kept dragging on and I expected a much more complicated plot.
Matched (#1) Blurb
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 with complete certainty that 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.
