Publisher's summary
The hotly awaited second book in the dystopian Matched trilogy....
In search of a future that may not exist and faced with the decision of who to share it with, Cassia journeys to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky - taken by the Society to his certain death - only to find that he has escaped, leaving a series of clues in his wake.
Cassia's quest leads her to question much of what she holds dear, even as she finds glimmers of a different life across the border. But as Cassia nears resolve and certainty about her future with Ky, an invitation for rebellion, an unexpected betrayal, and a surprise visit from Xander - who may hold the key to the uprising and, still, to Cassia's heart - change the game once again. Nothing is as expected on the edge of Society, where crosses and double crosses make the path more twisted than ever.

Critic reviews
"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, 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)
"...vivid, poetic writing... Condie immerses readers in her characters’ yearnings and hopes.” (Publishers Weekly)
Featured Article: Excellent Dystopian Listens Like The Hunger Games

The enduring popularity of the series has proven that dystopian stories and the sometimes-dark futures they imagine are endlessly fascinating to our imaginations.

This time its Ky...he is so very complex....he is an honorable young man....

Dystopian Society-Who can you really trust?
Where does Crossed rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Crossed is one of the better audiobooks I have listened to. The beginning of this second book starts out a bit slow, but don't worry-you will be left with questions and a desire to see what the third book holds.
Have you listened to any of Kate Simses and Jack Riccobono ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
The first in this series, Matched, was completely voiced by Kate Simses and she does a wonderful job of getting the character's emotions across. (She should have read for Katniss in the Hunger Games.)
Any additional comments?
This series is particularly good for middle-school aged girls. The romance is age-appropriate.

Same Ole thing
The first book in the series sparked my interest, The second book dropped it. The second book in the series takes a depressing lethargic turn. Relationships and character building in Crossed flatten, and new characters lack interest. At this point, the series follows the same storyline as other books in this genre with less. It is difficult to recreate a new take on a genre if you are not bringing a different angle, or building characters that can carry and capture the heart of the reader. Try throwing in a character that is funny and charismatic to break up the depressing mood, then match that one with a character you love to hate. Your main characters are listless and whinny, they do not invest or capture the heart of the reader. You definitely have potential as an author, you have got this far. Build your characters, make us love them.
