They each have an engaging romance and a story that digs behind the curtain of the society their characters live in. 230 Le Passeur par Lois Lowry (Ynaffit27, Trojanprincess, frankiejones)Trojanprincess: The two worlds seem similar in the way that every aspect of their livee are controlled. 200 Uglies, Tome 1 : par Scott Westerfeld (kqueue)kqueue: Another story about a 'perfect' society that is deeply flawed once you look beneath the surface. Both feature strong heroines who fight against the powers in control, and both have themes of independence and free will. 121 Delirium - Tome 1 par Lauren Oliver (foggidawn, simonie, jfoster_sf)simonie: une autre dystopie jfoster_sf: Both are powerful love stories that take place in a future where the government controls their lives.

Political intrigue and the darker side of these dystopian societies set on a future earth add intensity and action. 10 L'avenir commence demain par Isaac Asimov (Phantasma)Phantasma: Many of the short stories in this Asimov collection have similar ideas to the ones mentioned in Matched, such as matching a person's abilities and personality to their job and then giving them instruction in only that job. Most of the stories in the Asimov collection are distopian futures based on technology. And, for something originally written in the 50s... still quite plausible.… (plus d'informations) 10 Die Verratenen par Ursula Poznanski (Moongirl)Moongirl: Ebenfalls eine Distopie, welche in der Zukunft spielt. 00 Anomaly par Krista McGee (Utilisateur anonyme)11 Possession : Contrôler ou être contrôlé par Elana Johnson (Utilisateur anonyme)11 C'était demain : Suivi de par Edward Bellamy (Phantasma)Phantasma: A Utopian novel with a similar world-view and premise. 89 Les Âmes Vagabondes par Stephenie Meyer (alesi1)alesi1: It looks like a perfect world, but is it really? 13 Girl Parts par John M.

Do not go gentle into that good night. (p 96)
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage, against the dying of the light. (p 96)
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night. (p 222)
at first when the rain fell
from the sky so wide and deep
it smelled like sage, my favorite smell
I went up on the plateau to watch it come
to see the gifts it always brought
but this rain changed from blue to black
and left
nothing. (p 250)
they were too much to carry
so I left them behind
for a new life, in a new place
but no one forgot who I was
I didn't
and neither did the people who watch
they watched for years
they watch now (p 256)
My birthday began with the water-
Birds and the birds of the winged trees flying my name
Above the farms and the white horses
And I rose
In rainy autumn
And walked abroad in a shower of all my days. | |

My wings aren't white or feathered; they're green, made of green silk, which shudders in the wind and bends when I move - first in a circle, then in a line, finally in a shape of my own invention. | |

Each pause, each movement when he places a piece on the black-and-gray board. I want to reach out and grab his hand and hold it to me, right over my heart, right where it aches the most. I don't know if doing that would heal me or make my heart break entirely; but either way this constant hungry waiting would be over. | |

― Ally Condie, Matched
The cover for this one is absolutely captivating so I would’ve taken a second look at this book even if the plot had not interested me which it did.
I did not love it.
Maybe I have read to much Dystopian. I love this genre but since I finished the Divergent series, it seems every new series I try lets me down.
Matched has one of the most interesting covers I've ever seen. And the writing is descriptive (which I adore). The story is interesting. But I barely made it through the book. Why?
It was written in a very YA way. Also the book goes back and forth from one time period to another..past to current to past to current..an d that really is not my thing. Plus the creepy factor wasn't there as in most Dystopian that I love. I was not all that intrigued to find out what would happen next.
I freely admit I did not go on in the series so I do not even know how it all ends. I think I maybe needing a break from this Genre for awhile. Matched obviously worked for many but not myself. (
