I ended up liking the book, but I had my doubts. Somewhere between the end of the second book and halfway through the third. It seemed, I don't know, hard to read almost. like it was going no were but finally some action or some sort of life came back to the story....I'm glad that it kind of came to...
Confesssion moment: I really only skimmed the last bit of Reached. I was amazed by how much I didn't care about how it ended. It's too wimpy to abandon a series in the final stretch so I stuck with it. In the end it was worth it, just not by much. Condie still has an incredibly lyrical style of writ...
Warning I didn't really enjoy this book and so my review might be a little snarky. If you liked this series at all you should not read my review.This book is full of poetry and longing much like the other two books that preceded it. I had issues with this one as well as I never bought into the unyie...
Originally at The Secret Life of a BookwormI'd been debating about whether to pick this book up for quite a while. I loved Matched, didn't enjoy Crossed, so I didn't really know whether it was worth picking the last book up. I decided to anyways, so that I could finish the series and get it over wit...
* * * Maybe a 3.5 * * *Pros:* So, that's the rebellion* Actual actionCons:* I still didn't feel the love* Gosh I wish I could remember what made people Anomalies and Aberrations. So, why was there a second book?In all seriousness, if Cassia and Xander had been recruited to the Rising at the end of...
Every time I dive into one of Ally Condie's books I'm struck by her use of poetry and color. She pulls so much art into her writing that I find myself changed for the duration of my reading, much in the same way that I am when I am in the midst of reading/writing a lot of poetry - things are just mo...
So, I finished this series. This book was bad, the end. [[MORE]]I mean, I liked the first book (i'll get to that review later), and I didn't really like the second book (I'll do that one later, too). So you know, I'm looking at this 500 page story and I'm like "its gotta be better".... right?WRONG. ...
Wow! Reached is way better than Matched and Crossed. It was actually exciting and not boring. The plot was good, but not really original. Reached was a great way to end the Matched trilogy. This book was exciting because, finally, I felt that the characters were in danger. In Reached, a Plague go...
I really wanted to like this book, but I just... didn't. A lot of the praise I hear for REACHED talks about how lovely the prose is, and that's definitely true. But lovely prose does not a good book make. The plot of this book just seemed to meander along with no real direction. I remember liking Ma...
