I've finally finished 'Matched' by Ally Condie that Julia (http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/) has let me borrow. She's actually in China now so she won't be posting for about 2 weeks but she recording her posts in Microsoft Word. See her review on this book by clicking this link : http://xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/2011/06/book-review-no1-matched-by-ally-condie.html
Anyways, to the review.

ON HER SEVENTEENTH BIRTHDAY,
CASSIA MEETS HER MATCH. SOCIETY DICTATES
HE IS HER PERFECT PARTNER FOR LIFE.
EXCEPT HE'S NOT.
In Cassia's society. Officials decide who people love.
How many children they have.
Where they work.
When they die.
But, as Cassia finds herself falling in love with another boy,
she is determined to make some choices of her own.
And that's when her whole world
begins to unravel...
What I think about it:
As you can tell just by reading the blurb, this book was going to be a love triange like 'Twilight'. The plot itself was really exciting but I found myself not LOVING the book. Instead it wasn't SO interesting that I couldn't stop reading it till about 3/4 through the book. Not a bad book, but not the best either.
Rating: 8.5/10
Recommendation: Yes, if you want to read something that has romance themes. There are some parts that aren't interesting though.
Thanks for reading,
Michelle xx
