Crossed

Book #81

Crossed by Allie Condie is the second in a trilogy that is quite popular among our 8th grade girls. The first book, Matched, is one of the most appropriate romance novels written for young adults that I've read in a long time.  Today's ya lit is often peppered with crude language and mature content.  This series, written to satisfy the gaping hole in the romance genre, satisfies this library media specialist completely.

Although, I wish I'd reread Matched before reading Crossed.  I had forgotten too many details. 

Happy Reading!
