Sometimes perfection can be perfect hell. - Jack's Mannequin
In the distant future everything is perfect. People are assigned the jobs they are best suited to, their meals are delivered hot each night to provide the perfect amount of nutrition, and when you turn seventeen you are matched to the person who will be your perfect mate. But what happens if the government is wrong? What does it mean if you have more than one perfect match? Cassia has just been matched but it's not what she thought it would be. Now her whole world is turned upside down and she's not certain that her perfect world is as it seems.
OK. Think Hunger Games without the fighting. This book is great. If what you liked about Hunger Games was the love triangle this is the book for you. It also has a controlling government meddling in the lives of its citizens. All of the characters are well thought out, the romance is serious but chaste, and the government was just evil enough to keep me reading. I've been to the authors webpage and this is going to be a trilogy. The next book will be out in November 2011 and the way this book ends it seems like we will be learning more about the world outside the perfect suburb that Cassia and her family live in. I can't wait!
