Psst...Stephanie. Wake up, it's over. Oh, man. Did I fall asleep again? It's not my fault. Really, it isn't. If only Crossed had just a little bit more action and a lot less poetry, it would have been able to keep my attention focused on reading the book instead of hitting my REM cycle. That's not to say I didn't entirely enjoy Crossed, but it also didn't live up to my expectations. Crossed picks up where Matched left off. Ky had been sent away to the Outer Provinces and Cassia is currently1.5 stars - Spoilers for Matched and Crossed.Cassia wuvs Ky. Ky wuvs Cassia. They both wuv poetry and art. Wuv. Nobody else understands their wuv for poetry and art. That's why they wuv each other. Cassia and Ky's wuv is forbidden. Wuv. Society no approve of their wuv. Sociey seperates wuv-birds. Cassia should wuv her Society chosen match Xander. Xander wuvs Cassia, cos we can't be deprived wuv triangle. Cassia confunded, does Cassia wuv Xander too?? Cassia has epiphany, she wuvs them both - oh
no one told ally condie that the second book in a trilogy is not a resting place, not an opportunity to catch your breath and count your cash. you gotta write something, too. is that mean? probably.is it true? definitely.even though i wasn't crazy about matched, i wanted to read the next installment just to see where she was going with her brand of dystopia, and with these characters. and also, truthfully, because i am such a sucker for covers, and i love these. i think she might put more time
Rage. Hardcore TURKEY RAGE.(Happy Thanksgiving all my American buddies by the way)What WAS THIS? This was a book? Really? This didnt have the components of a book.Okay...total components: Allusions, characters, exposition, characterization.There really are no words properly defining my rage. Ally Condie CANNOT tell a story. A story should draw you in with its writing and send you off on an adventre that does a good job at blowing your mind. Crossed did not do that. It refused to do that. In
With Crossed, Ally Condie committed the crime of writing a slow-paced, conflict-lacking middle book in a series. I recall enjoying Matched to an extent, but reading Crossed caused me to question my prior positive feelings for Matched.Condie can write. There were some beautiful phrases and sentences in Crossed. However, for the most part Condie's prose lacked any power or punch - her writing was void of emotion. I noticed it in the first book, but attributed it to Cassia's sheltered lifestyle
Okay....I admit. I did not finish this book. I told myself I would because I feel like I steal the chance to become more exciting to the end but it was so boring and slow. And there are just so many other books I am way more excited to read.So I did not like this book. This is just my opinion and I did really like the first one so it is kind of a pity that the second didn't turn out great.
This book is a dystopian novel about a girl, Cassia who is relocated to the outer provinces and Ky and Cassia embark on a journey to rebel against the society and find each other so they can reunite.As much as I liked this book I found that some parts were a little boring, I was looking for a really good dystopian novel with lots of romance like the selection by Kiera Cass, which I mentioned in the review for the first book. Like lots of other people wil tell you this one is not as good as the
