![]() ![]() I found myself flipping back to the beginning of the chapters to confirm who was narrating. Cassia and Ky's voice sounded exactly alike to me. However, in this case I found it difficult to tell who was who. In fact, I am a fan of that particular style, when done correctly. I liked how the PoVs switched back and forth between Ky and Cassia. But for some reason it just didn't work out too well for me in Crossed. I enjoyed the "Do not go gently" theme and Condie's poetic writing style. I had high hopes for this book mostly because I did enjoy Matched. ![]() Along the way, enough poetry to give Maya Angelou a headache is recited and flashbacks to Ky's past are also included. ![]() A few new discoveries are made regarding the Society and an apparent rebellion called the Rising. In this installment she travels to the Outer Provinces to find Ky, while he somehow escapes the Outer Provinces to be reunited with Cassia back in the Society. ![]() Ky had been sent away to the Outer Provinces and Cassia is currently residing in a girl's work camp. That's not to say I didn't entirely enjoy Crossed, but it also didn't live up to my expectations.Ĭrossed picks up where Matched left off. 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. Did I fall asleep again? It's not my fault. ![]()
