Matched series

Matched by Ally Condie – 1^st in the “Matched” series

Not sure what to say about this one. It was good. Not great, but good. I enjoyed it, but it’s not a book that I would tell anyone “Oooo you HAVE to read this one now.” I’ve heard the 2nd book is better, so I guess I’ll read that one soon. I do enjoy a good dystopian future novel. It does have a good plot and is definitely an enjoyable audiobook to listen to at work.

“Every minute you spend with someone gives them a part of your life and takes part of theirs.”

Synopsis:

In the Society, officials decide. Who you love. Where you work. When you die. ~ Cassia has always trusted their choices. It’s hardly any price to pay for a long life, the perfect job, the ideal mate. So when her best friend appears on the Matching screen, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is the one…until she sees another face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. Now Cassia is faced with impossible choices: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she’s known and a path no one else has ever dared follow—between perfection and passion.
