Crossed

The book that I read is Crossed by Ally Condie. Ally Condie has written many books this book is a lot like this one. The book Crossed an compare to Ally Condie’s  because, she writes stories about one girl stuck between two great choices or romances.   An amazing heroin named Cassia trying to discover who her real match is. is it her childhood friend Xander or is it the strange boy who just appeared Ky? When Cassia decides to go to the outer society in search for her crush Ky (whom we are sure has been taken by the society for his death) she finds that he escaped into the majestic but dangrous canyons.  Can Cassia and Ky survive or will the have a horrible end to this twisting novel find out in Crossed by Ally Condie .

The young heroin  Cassia is faced with an obstacle of true love and freedom. What are the limits she is willing to go to in order to find true happiness and love. Cassia is stuck between Xander her childhood friend and Ky the mysterious one from out of the province.

I enjoyed this book because it kept me on the edge of my seat excited to know more i would  recommend  reading this book for those whom like romance and action.

Crossed

Crossed” by Ally Condie is the sequel to The New York Times Bestseller “Matched”. Condie’s “Matched” left readers craving more and “Crossed” is just what they needed. “Matched” left readers trapped in a triangle of love, lies, and adventure, only furthering their expectation of the sequel. Full of adventure and rebellion “Crossed” truly shows how true love will go to the ends of the Earth to find one another.

Condie’s “crossed” brings us to Ky and Cassia; the love stricken two who aren’t suppose to be together. With help from Cassia’s former “match” Xander, and her new friend Indie, Cassia is on the run to find Ky. In the outer provinces Cassia and Indie find Ky and his new friend Eli, but it’s not safe. ”The Society” is in the outer provinces. Cassia and Indie are eager to find the rebellion, while Ky doesn’t know who to trust.

A farmer leads Cassia, Ky, Indie, and Eli throughout the outer provinces. The group faces many obstacles. Dearth is with them every step of the way, and emotions run high when trust is broken in the group. These 5 persevere through the outer provinces, but not everybody is ready to leave for the rebellion.


“Crossed” is an excellent book filled with love, adventure, and tragedy. This sequel kept me reading late into the night, its nearly impossible to put down. Compared to “Matched” this sequel is equally as well written, but has much more adventure and danger. If you were impressed with “Matched” then “Crossed” will blow you away.
