The highly anticipated second book in the New York Times bestselling Matched trilogy!

Perfect for fans of 1984, Brave New World, Black Mirror, and The Handmaid’s Tale.

Chasing down an uncertain future, Cassia makes her way to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky--taken by Society to his certain death--only to find that he has escaped into the majestic, but treacherous, canyons. On this wild frontier are glimmers of a different life . . . and the enthralling promise of rebellion. But even as Cassia sacrifices everything to reunite with Ky, ingenious surprises from Xander may change the game. On the edge of Society, nothing is as expected, and crosses and double crosses make Cassia's path more twisted than ever.

Look for the epic series finale, REACHED!

What the critics say

“Cassia and Ky grapple with secrets, wilderness and the tumultuous meanings of love in the second installment of this addictive, layered dystopic trilogy . . . Although two-boys-one-girl triangles run rife in this genre, Condie’s is complicated and particularly human, involving real emotional scars . . . Both rich and easy to digest, this will leave fans hungry for the third book.”Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“Told in alternating chapters from their points of view, the book gives readers full access to the hearts and minds of two memorable characters. Their needs, love, and internal conflicts are palpable. Their voices are distinct and authentic, and the writing is often poetic.”School Library Journal

“This is more than just a placeholder between the first and last parts of a trilogy . . . Condie effectively sets the stage for the final chapter in Cassia’s story by leaving the reader hanging at the end of the book. Matched fans will devour this book and be eager for the concluding one.”VOYA

“Vivid, poetic writing . . . Condie immerses readers in her characters’ yearnings and hopes.”Publishers Weekly

I really enjoyed the story, and it was very thought-provoking. I think a teen or young adult would particularly enjoy this book talks about larger life issues that young people can benefit from learning about.

Very enjoyable. Would recommend for audiences, young and old.

This has been an extremely tough read/listen for me. Especially after enjoying Matched as much as I did. the story line is boring and uneventful and although I enjoy that they used a male voice reader for Ky's chapters, his voice is so draining. I find myself not wanting to continue listening because it puts me in almost a sad mood, just by listening to his voice! Not only that but there is no tone change in his thoughts vs him speaking, and the actors voice has only slightly subtle tone differences for the different characters. this all makes it very difficult to stick with the story. I often realize that I hardly listen to Kys' chapters and am thinking of the stuff I'm trying to use the book not to think about!
I was very excited to listen to this book as well as Reached, but now I'm not sure i want to waste my money..
Quite disappointed..

meh..
