Rules are different outside the Society. Chasing down an uncertain future, Cassia makes her way to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky - taken by the Society to his certain death - only to find that he has escaped into the majestic, but treacherous, canyons. On this wild frontier are glimmers of a different life and the enthralling promise of rebellion. But even as Cassia sacrifices everything to reunite with Ky, ingenious surprises from Xander may change the game once again. Narrated from both Cassia's and Ky's points of view, this hotly anticipated sequel to Matched will take them both to the edge of Society, where nothing is as expected and crosses and double-crosses make their path more twisted than ever . . .

Review of 'Crossed' on 'Goodreads'

I still don't find this story to be believable, and I am indifferent to the characters, but I kept wanting to read it. It is well-paced I suppose, and there was a hint in this book that there would be less blah blah about love and more about the politics going on in the dystopian "Society", but the teen readers require that relationship drama continues. I am getting the next one and finishing the trilogy despite my reluctance to finish young adult series for the practical purpose of reading other series and making appropriate recommendations to teen readers. I just want to know what happens. There is some great developments with Xander in book two, and the introduction of a couple new kids that might prove to be interesting.
