3. What I like best about my book

     I'm still reading Reached by Ally Condie, and it's very interesting so far.  Something I really like about the author's writing style and how it has changed throughout the series is that in the first book, the only perspective you heard was Cassia's (the main character) throughout the entire book.  Then in the second one you hear the perspective of Cassia and her love Ky, and then in the third book you can hear the perspective of Cassia, Ky and her other love Xander; this increases the drama because it gives you empathy for the different characters and what they are experiencing and what is being played out within the love triangle between them.  It makes decision-making a lot harder for Cassia because although she loves Ky, she can't help but love Xander too because he has always been her friend since childhood and was also her Match in the first book.
     She'll never forget how happy she was in that first Match Banquet a long time ago (well it feels like such a long time ago, although it's really only been about 5 months) when she was Matched with Xander.  But the feelings began coming to her when the Society made a 'mistake' which she later found out to be planned for some silly experiment they were trying on Cassia and Ky to see how they would react.  She's conflicted now; which boy to choose and be happy with once the Rising comes along... IF it ever comes.  No one even knows who the Pilot is (the leader of the Rising) and some even suspect he is dead.  There is much suspense, I'm ready to hear the decisions Cassia/Ky/Xander make in the near future as the story comes to a close.
