HI guys,
For my book report book i read all 366 pages of Allie Condie's book Matched. Here is a picture of the book:
Cassie’s main goal throughout the book is to be with Ky without
hurting anybody especially her family.
It seems like a very simple goal but she had to go through many
obstacles. Some of the obstacles are when the society does not allow them to be
together and they are not allowed to go on dates or even meet each other
because he was not planned to be her match.
The last obstacle she had to face is when her family had been told that they were
going to get moved outside the city to live in the farmland, because Cassie’s
mother new too much about how to live without the society by growing your own
crops. Her mother figured this out because she is one of the board members so
she is in charge of the agriculatriul part. So an official (they are like
higher class police men) makes a deal with Cassie that if she tells her what Ky
and Cassie did while they spent secret time together in exchange the official
will make sure that her family does not get moved to the farmland. Cassie declined the offer and said that she
would never tell them, since they did many illegal things such as learn to
write, collect forbidden poems and many other things. Since the society realized that their threat did
not work they threaten her that if she does not stop seeing Ky that they will
take Ky away to the border where they are fighting the enemy where he will most
likely die. This actually worked in their favor because Cassie planned to go
and find him and reunite.
