| Brief Summary |

Matched follows Cassia, a teenager living in a tightly controlled society where officials decide everything from careers to relationships. Confident in the system, Cassia believes her best friend Xander is her perfect Match until another boy, Ky, briefly appears on her matching screen, causing her to question the Society’s authority and the life she has always accepted. As her feelings grow and secrets about her world begin to surface, Cassia must choose between safety and freedom, obedience and rebellion, and the comfort of perfection versus discovering the truth for herself.
