Matched Trilogy

[Halley]

[Emma]

I didn't really like this series, crossed was especially bad. i am still going to read reached though.

[Rue]

I really liked the books can't wait to read reached!

[Eleanor]

I really liked matched and crossed, but they were quite different.

[Madilynn]

I have read the first book. I loved it.

[Rae]

Matched was definitely not my favorite...but then again maybe I was expecting too much because I had just finished The Maze Runner trilogy and was just getting into Delirium- both amazing dystopian trilogies. Crossed was a little better, but still not fantastic. I really want to read Reached though, and I have high hopes for it! I definitely want to finish the trilogy no matter what :)

[Emma]

(view spoiler)[ i thought it was really annoying how Xander turned out to be in the group of rebels (hide spoiler)]

[Jessica]

I like this series, I like the creepy society feeling of Match and the quest out in the wilderness that happened in Crossed. I'm excited for Reached and I feel like it will really bridge the two books together.

I just started buying this series, though I have yet to read it. I've been getting mixed signals about it :/

[Mollie]

I really like this series so far, but I do find it interesting that it has so much romance in a dystopia series. I do prefer it that way, but I know alot of people don't.... Either way though, it is a great series. It's almost like The Giver meets Twilight, as far as the Society and the love triangle go. :)

[Erica]

I really liked the first book, but I didn't like Crossed as much. I'm excited for Reached though. I like how the covers correspond with the tablets.

Wow I'm slow lol. I didn't pay attention to that fact!

I've read Matched. I really liked it. I'm waiting for Reached to come out before I finish the series. Another month can't wait! :)

[Renee]

REACHED CAME OUT!!!! now I'm just waiting for the library to get it...

[Emma]

i hope it's good, because then matched might be a good series. because crossed was just awful.

[Renee]

really? I liked Crossed. I thought it was cool, break away from society and go on a mission to find the truth about the past.

[Vanessa]

Just bought Reached! I was counting down the freaking days! Now all I have to do is wait for it to arrive...

[Renee]

ha ha ha i hate waiting for it when you know its out!

[Vanessa]

Agreed. I nearly knock out my delivery guy every time he brings me a package lol. All the fun in building expectations.

[Emma]

I'm reading it now!!!!! i got it from the library! :)

[Grace]

I finished REACHED

[Emma]

i did too! it was so good!!!!!!!!!

[Stephanie]

i loved matched, but crossed was VERYY SLOOOOWW it took me a month to read it and i read matched in a week. i ordered reached from amazon so i'm waiting for it to come...

[Vanessa]

Almost finished with Reached. If your reading it right now ADD ME! Let's talk about it lol

[Renee]

Starting Reached tonight!

[Emma]

it was amazing! :D

[Alexandra]

I am like 100 pages in. I love it so far but i don't want it to end.

[Renee]

ha ha, I'm up to page 3!

[TheOriginalNikeGirl]

I got Reached on Nov. 14th, the day after it came out. I haven't read it yet, though. :(
I will, though, I promise! I just have to finish all my library books first.

[Emma]

yeah, i thought book 1 was okay, book 2 was pretty much the worst book i ever read, but book 3 was awesome! :D

[Erica]

I'm thinking of reading the first book. I read a couple pages. I thought it was really bad.

[Lanell]

I did like it, but not in love with it. I think out of all the dystopian books I've read, it's mediocre. I think the first and the last are pretty good, but the second is just a filler.

[Veronica]

I still haven't read Reached but I will get to it. The first book was really good I think but the second it was kind of I don't know it was not boring but it was hard for me to read that book. I want to start reading the third book to know what happens.

[amelia]

These books are so poor. They are so similar to Lauren Oliver's Delirium and Cassia is so annoying! Crossed was so awful, I'm sorry.

[Missy]

I liked Matched better than Crossed. I'm planning on starting Reached this week. Then I can give my final verdict.

[Emma]

Reached is amazing! Makes reading Crossed worth it. :P

[Emma]

You should! It will be hard to get through Crossed though.

[Kim]

I was really excited about this series, and I was pleasantly surprised with the storyline of Matched and Crossed, but was disappointed with Reached. The entire plot was changed in a way where I didn't even feel like I was reading the series, and the ending, while good, could have brought back the mood of M and C to tie the series together, which it did not do

[Abbey]

I made myself read the first two, but it was so predictable and repetitive that I just gave up. I found myself wondering why I cared about the characters...

[Carley]

just finished Reached and did not like the way it ended. There was. no sense of triumph or any sense of completion at the end. During the last chapter I found myself zoning out and I didn't even care to go back and re-read any of it. Some parts were really good, but others were just plain boring.

[Francesca]

I couldn't get passed Crossed, I stopped halfway through it was so slow

[Michelle]

Love the trilogy! Personally I thought crossed was the worst out of the three, but they all are pretty good. I remember I began the book matched because of the cover. It had green, my favorite color. I fell in love with the book.

[Abbey]

I read the first one, and had high hopes but I barely managed to read the 2nd one and gave up on the third. just something about the romance seemed forced and lame

[[deleted user]]

The first book was better than the second reached was okay

[Erin]

I loved this trilogy!! I want to know why people hate it so much. Seriously. I want to know.

[PinkyJapan]

I liked this trilogy. Crossed was my favorite, though Indie pissed me off on several occasions. I find it funny that so many people hate Crossed! I am the odd man out I guess lol. I enjoyed their journey through the Carving and was on edge the entire time.

It was a good read but it wasn't…amazing. Hunger Games? Amazing. Delirium? Amazing. Divergent? Amazing. Matched was good, just a little slow sometimes and some parts were confusing. I felt like they didn't tie up a few loose ends as well.

Well put! Good but not amazing. Also slow at times.

[Rose]

I am almost done with the first book, and I didn't really like it. I am going to read through the end, I think, though, because it is okay!

[Heaven]

it was pretty good, but not my favorite

[Rachael]

I liked this series! A lot of people didn't like it and I guess I read it before I read a lot of other "5 star series" but it was still good.

The characters were cute and the dystopian world was fun to explore.

[Rose]

I was really excited about the series when I first started reading it, thinking it would be similar to Divergent or The Hunger Games. It turned out to be quite different, though, and it wasn't really my taste (Especially Ky).
