"Reached" by Ally Condie

Warning: If you haven't read the first two books I'd wait to read this review on the third one.

Reached by Ally Condie is the third & final book to the Matched Trilogy . This book threw in a third point of view into the mix. We get to know Xander a bit more. Seeing things from his perspective along with Cassia & Ky's. I can honestly say I loved this trilogy from beginning to end. One of the best things about it is that even though there are some sad parts the ending is relatively happier then any other dystopian novel I have ever read!


 Cassia and her friends journey is nearing the end. After they joined the rebellion after what seems like ages they're finally striking. They use the disease the society made and use it against them. The Pilot. The Rebellion. They're the only ones who have a sufficient amount of the cure. Everything is going smoothly, they're gaining control of the city, but then it happens. The disease starts mutating and the cure is uttered useless. Cassia got the the disease and was cured before it mutated therefore she can't get it again, however; some of her friends and family weren't so lucky. Cassia, Xander, and the people from the stone villages are raising against the clock hoping to find a new cure in time.


This book and the Matched Trilogy in general had me from start to finish. Ally Condie is definitely one of my favorite authors now. To be honest there was one thing that slightly bugged me. The trilogy didn't leave me completely hanging, but if Ally wanted to she could definitely write a fourth book. Like seriously! What exactly is in the "other lands"? Is Matthew still alive? Who won the election? What will happen to the city? These questions aren't really important, they're very minor to the actual story line, but I just have to wonder. Regardless I can say that  if you're looking for a new trilogy to read I recommend this one.
