Dystopian society dictates life and love choices.

"Matched" is a compelling read if you're into explorations of freedom and love under a controlling regime. Condie's narrative is haunting as it unwraps the life of Cassia, her arranged match, and the unsettling feeling that comes with having no say in your future. It's a book that strikes a chord especially if you appreciate stories that question the fabric of society and individual destiny.
