Okay, its started out pretty well...kinda. But it really failed to keep my attention...so..yeah I only read about the first fourth of it.
I had high expectations for this book and it was just ok. It reminded me of Mockingjay where it was really good and then it was just ok. This book reminded me of the Uglies series with that main character.
I can't believe I have to wait until November to find out what happens next! I think I may end up loving this series as much as I love the Hunger Games series. I'm completely and utterly hooked by it.
I really like the messages it contains about choice. Reading a book like this reminds you that you shouldn't take your ability to choose for granted, and that you should certainly resist those who would try to rob you of choice. Really, choosing is the essential part of being human; our lives are defined by our belief in the sanctity of free will, and our fights often stem from the idea that we should be free to choose to live the life we want to live.
I can't wait to read the next installment.

Updated review:
I read this a while back, I would agree with the comments. The society is never explained and the story is loose, nothing important ever happens to the characters. Will bump this down to two stars because it was ok.
Earlier review:
The story is pretty simple but still enjoyable. Feels like a spin on the hunger games but with less tension put on the characters, oh and a love triangle of course. Still worth the read though.

There wasn't anything that made this book bad or great. It is firmly a good book. It's a run of this mill dystopian with heavy emphasis on Choice and Romance. I really enjoy the Matching System and the Tablet System which are the two most unique aspects of this story. The characters are interesting but nothing to out of the ordinary. It's a good quick read.
The best book ever, it was like a poetry, like a music for heart.
Intriguing, but a little too teeny for my taste. Excited to see where the author takes things in the next couple.
I LOVED this book. I found the world she created fascinating. live the way she depicted live and all tge ways love can present itself in a relationship.
