Matched+Ally+Condie

I loved //Matched!// The entire time I was reading Ally Condie's first book, I pictured a movie version and knew there would be a sequel! I loved how its plot and characters tapped into anxieties and hopes that we all have about the decisions we make in life, and the different paths those decisions lead us along. . . Did we choose the right friends, the right school and how my would my life be altered if I had chosen differently? In this novel, The Society (government and social structure) heightens our experiences with these thoughts and emotions as we read because Cassia, the main character who is 18 and "matched" with her ideal mate at the beginning of the book, is not free to make those life decisions on her own as we are. . . Will she accept them? A must read! The sequel to //Matched// is due out in early November! - Mrs. McGee
