And the fact that Cassia does start to fall for her second Match suggests that there is something in what the Society is doing, pairing off its young people – a perhaps even more sinister detail. Matched falls into the first category – it's definitely worth every good thing said about it.Ĭondie's world is wonderfully sinister, despite the fact that her main character totally buys into the controlling Society way, believing in it even when her Match goes wrong. Now, a book having hype means one of two things – it is worthy of the hype and is going to be a fantastic read, or it's going to be a huge disappointment. I'd heard a lot of great things about Matched. For a moment, the picture of another boy flashes up on screen, but a moment is all it takes for Cassia to wonder – what if he was meant to be her Match?


Because Xander's information isn't the only set on the file. Unlike the other girls, she knows her Match – doesn't need to read his details, go through the motions of dating as dictated by the Society, doesn't need to worry they won't get along.īut Cassia can't help feeling a little left out of the excitement of not knowing, so she plugs in Xander's data file – an action that changes her life forever. When the Society Matches Cassia to her best friend Xander, she couldn't be more thrilled. Great characters and well developed romance that will have you waiting on tenterhooks for the next instalment!
