Crossed by: Ally Condie

Summary - Intro the book
              I have finished the book titled "Crossed" written by Allie Condie,which is,  the sequel to "Matched" by:Allie Condie. If you haven't read the first book,Matched i'll give you a brief summary about the book. Cassia and everyone else who just turned 17 are attending the party that will meet the person whom they will spend the rest of their lives with. Cassia is surprised when she ends up with her best friend Xander , towards the climax of the story a twist comes in where instead of falling in love with her chosen person she finds herself seeking out an aberration. In the second book, she is on her way to find Ky (if you want to know what happened to Ky read Matched), she is determined to find Ky after he was taken away.Will she find him or will she lose him  forever?
           In the book "Crossed"written by Allie Condie Cassia can be seen as a rebel, because the society that she lives in decides everything in her life , who she marries , when she has kids , her job, etc. We begin to really explore  her rebel side when she is with Ky when in reality she is destined to be with Xander.The text states,"So in the middle of all the noise, i point to the sky. I hope he understands what i mean, because i mean so many things;my heart will always fly his name. I wont go gentle ill find a way to soar like the angels in the stories and i will find him.And i know he understands as he looks straight at me, deep into my eyes. His lips move silently and i know what he says:the words of a poem that only two people in the world know."The best thing about  reading a book is reading in between the lies, reading this piece of text evidence , can we please analyze the part where Condie says ,"And i know he understands as he looks straight at me, deep into my eyes. His lips move silently and i know what he says:the words of a poem that only two people in the world know."We can easily tell that they share an amazing love and why should they hold so dear to their hearts a stanza of a poem. Also let's take a moment to analyze the part where she writes ," His lips move silently". He never repeats the words, that means that he didn't want somebody to hear them.To wrap it up, this piece of evidence shows that there is a connection between Ky and herself, when really that connections is supposed to be with Xander

Matched By:Allyson Condie

      This is a trilogy by Allyson Braithwaite Condie about a girl in a different society than ours, a stricter society, a society where the person you will be with for the rest of your life is chosen for you at the age of 17. Cassia Reyes is 17 and standing on a platform waiting for her match to be chosen , much to her surprise her match is her best-friend Xander. Except much to her surprise when she puts the disk that contains all of her partner's information, inside the console, it isn't Xander's face that shows up, instead an unfamiliar aberration that goes  by the name of Ky Markham. When a restricted relationship evolves boundaries are broken and hearts are broken.
     When Cassia and Ky first started hanging out i thought that it was fine but when Cassia started finding out her feelings for Ky, i predicted that they were going to get caught. Also, at the beginning of the book when Cassia was denying her feelings towards Ky i predicted that sometime in the future of the book they were going to discover their feelings for each other, Another prediction that i had was that Xander was going to discover their relationship when they were kissing but my prediction was incorrect.
