Crossed

By Ally Condie

Book Overview

The hotly awaited second book in the dystopian Matched trilogy In search of a future that may not exist and faced with the decision of who to share it with, Cassia journeys to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky - taken by the Society to his certain death - only to find that he has escaped, leaving a series of clues in his wake. Cassia's quest leads her to question much of what she holds dear, even as she finds glimmers of a different life across the border. But as Cassia nears resolve and certainty about her future with Ky, an invitation for rebellion, an unexpected betrayal, and a surprise visit from Xander - who may hold the key to the uprising and, still, to Cassia's heart - change the game once again. Nothing is as expected on the edge of Society, where crosses and double crosses make the path more twisted than ever.

The Adventure Begins

After Matched, Cassia is sent to a work camp, and she uses her assignment to find Ky, a boy she really likes. However, she still feels attracted to Xander, despite what Society says. This adventure includes new friends, new places, and a heart-pounding revelation that will leave you looking for more!

Matched series...

This is the second book of the Matched series. I really enjoyed this book. If you enjoyed the first one I think you’ll enjoy this one as well. The only thing I didn’t like was that is switched between Kys point of view and Cassias point of view. It just got a little confusing at times and also found it a little unnecessary. But other than that great read. W

Great book!!

This second book follows the characters as they start to break away from society and try to choose their own paths and learn more about what the world used to be like. The first book is excellent and the second continued to be as well!

Interesting

I do not typically read series books and I read all 3 of these. It kept you wanting to know what was going to happen and how things would end. It well written and the plot keeps you interested.
