Matched

Matched
by Ally Condie
Ages: 12+

Finally, Cassia is the age to be matched.  She has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, to watch, and to believe. She is matched with someone from her area- Xander, but when she watches her microchip about her match another face appears, Ky Markham.  A society official claims it was a rare malfunction because Ky is Abberation.  She should focus on her future happy life. 
Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky and slowly falls in love and doubts the Society.  She has to chose a path between Xander and Ky, life has she's known and a path no one else has to dared to follow.   

I am in the teen fiction genre and I am loving it.  I love the different future societies/government and young people beginning to realize the government is not correct.  They are no longer blinded by the lies the government provided.  It is like Hunger Games, Maze Runner, The Giver, Cinder, and Birthmarked.  Of course, this is book one of a trilogy. Crossed is book 2 and Reached which will be released November 2012 (this year).
