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.

Sort of boring at the beginning,but you should read

My friend said it was a very good book and I wanted to read it.

What really stinks is I have no friends who have read it so I have nobody to rant to about how {blank so I don't spoil} died!!!

the whole series has you on your tiptoes trying to find out what will happen next. a little girl and boy drama and romance which adds a little extra to the series

This book it a MUST read. It combines Adventure with Romance and it wraps around with a different Society. I read it three times and I own it. I also read the whole series. Once you start you can't stop. You will start to crave it, and want it more than anything else.

I thought there was to much romance in this book. I was expecting it to be more like Divergent by Veronica Roth, but it was all about Cassia, Xander, and Ky getting mad at each other and making up. It was a waste of my time.

A very good book. It can be a little confusing, though. Still, it has an amazing plot, and I don't normally like romances. :) A must read for anyone who enjoys SiFi/Action.

This is one of my favorite novels and is very good. It has a love triangle like many other dystopian fiction novels and if you like The Hunger Games, Legend, or Divergent, I highly recommend this book.
