Overall Rating: 3
stars
Addiction Level: I
read it when I had spare time.
Believe-ability: It
was believable.
Dystopia Factor: The
world has been turned upside down and all hope is lost, but maybe our
hero/heroine can save it.

Reached
is the conclusion of the Matched
series. Overall I was satisfied with it,
because it concluded the series very nicely.
I have struggled with writing my
review. I feel like I can sum up the
series in two sentences, and I owe to you dear Reader to write more. In the midst of fitful sleep I realized why I
like not love this series. I do not feel
deeply connected to the characters. I do
not dream about them or wonder what they would do. I do not have series ending grief/depression
like I did with The Hunger Games or Harry Potter. I am done.
Before I am completely done, let me
tell you what I liked. I liked how Cassia, Ky, and Xander’s stories were
concluded. The love triangle is
resolved. I liked getting more of
Xander’s story. After Crossed I really wanted to hear more of
his story. As I read I had hoped the
Rising would be better. It is slightly,
but overall the Society and the Rising are similar.
Condie leaves the story on a
positive note. Loose ends are tied up.
The characters are ready to start a new journey. Like them I am ready for a new adventure.
