Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate . . . until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black.

The Society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.

This book is totally awesome, and now I'm actually regretting the choice to start reading the third book, Reached instead of Matched and Crossed!

I love the book, and I really want to read matched and the whole series. Unfortunately, I started on the third book instead of Matched! Ya'll know how library requests work. A books available, the library sends it to your library.

I'm currently reading this book and it's pretty good....but why of all boys Ky? I'm liking Xaiver or however you spell his name, is cuter. lolz just my opinion

That's what I thought, too! Ky sounds so weird and ugly, but Xander sounds funny and cute. Why couldn't Cassia just pick Xander?

I'm reading this book right now...its pretty interesting but i don't get why she falls for Ky... Xander is good enough for her, seriously ;)

So i finished this book, and i didn't really like it...I think Matched is a copy off of Hunger Games in my opinion. Poor Xander too, Cassia left him for Ky pretty much :(

I love this book. I got the second book for my birthday and I can't wait to read it. I love this book because It's about a girl who lives in a province where the officials plan your life. They decide who you love, when you die, what you wear, what you eat and when you eat. But the girl falls in love with the wrong guy.

I love this book. I got the second book for my birthday and I can't wait to read it. This book is about a girl who lives in a place where they decide everything. They tell you what to wear, what you eat,and who you love. The girl loves the wrong boy, Ky.
