"Crossed" - /ENDING!/ - Chapter 35-54

Yeeeaaah, I really managed to finish the book on time! Proud of myself. ^^
Last post for now, I will continue with the third and last book as soon as I find the motivation to. Or exactly three days before that book is due in about two months …
I won't answer the questions like I did for the last book because the answers would be almost the same since it's the same series … and because I think nobody from my class did that anyway.

Anyway: Last post – enjoy!

Summary:
Next goal for the group: Find the Rising!
The problem: Ky doesn't want to join them because he doesn't trust them and believes, that they are no better than the Society.
When Ky tries to burn a map they found, that should lead them to the Rising, Cassia comes there right in time to safe the map. Of course she is angry, confused and other bad, melodramatic emotions that would fit to the situation.

But however, they have to get going, before it's too late. The next morning the group leaves the village with a boat they found and wander to the river, that should take them to the Rising. Now, everyone has to decide where to go. Hunter (oh, yeah, btw he survived the last blog entry and came back) wants to go to the mountains to search for the people from his village. Eli decides to go with him. Indie has made her choice to go to the Rising long ago. Cassia wants to go with Indie, but not without Ky.
Ky, despite all his doubts, wants to stay by Cassias side and hesitatingly agrees to join the Rising. Because the boat is too small to fit all of them, Ky walks down by the stream while Indie and Cassia go by boat.

They all arrive safely at the Rising, where they are taken care of. And immediately torn apart again. Cassia is sent back to the Society to help the Rising from within there, while Ky is sent out to become a pilot of an air ship in another province. Indie doesn't know yet, what she'll have to do.

Thoughts:
Weeeeeell … the book was ok! It was not as good as the first book … and the first book didn't blow me away either. But it's not that bad. ^^ It's just one of these books where you can read a hundred pages and absolutely nothing really important happens …
I'm disappointed by the ending … it's so similar to the ending of the last book, I hoped for something more exciting.
What I miss the most in the second part of this series is the thrill. In the first part there were like 50 pages at the end, where I almost couldn't put the book aside. But sadly there were no such moments in the second part...it was kind of predictable...

I guess I'll read the third book anyway, just to complete the series (and this blog) … maybe it gets better ^.^

"Matched" - Chapter 2-7

I finished reading Chapter 2-7 yesterday and here is what happened until now: Summary: Like expected, Cassia is matched with her best friend Xander. He is a sweet, intelligent and handsome boy and she is glad to be matched with him, although she seems a little disappointed of not getting the chance of being excited about meeting and getting to know someone new, like all the others who got matched with people from other cities. The next day, after she comes home from work (which is by the way sorting stuff), she has the house by herself and decides to take a look at the microcard about her match, she received before. Although she already knows almost everything about Xander, she is curious about finding out more. Xander´s face is shown on the screen, but before she can continue reading, something strange happens. The picture changes and shows another boys face, just for a second, and then the screen goes black. Cassia is shocked and afraid, that there was a mistake with her being

"Reached" - Towards a beautiful future :) - Chapter 52-63 (END!)

Summary : The three of them return to the society and help spreading the new cure. It works perfectly and many lifes can be saved, though some already had to die. Cassia's father died from the mutated plague, but her mother is transportet to Camas with Bram, where they live now, and can be cured. Xanders parents are safe as well and his friend, Lei, can be cured too. Only Ky is not that lucky: his (adoptive) parents are nowhere to be found and Indie died from the plague as well. Xander thinks of going to the otherlands together with some of the people from the mountains, but can't do it in the end. He stays in the mountains together with Lei and writes Cassia a letter that he will return someday. A few weeks later there is a vote - the first one since a long time ago. All people over the age of seventeen can go there and choose between the Society, represented by an Official, the Rising, represented by the Pilot, and Anna, (a woman from the mountains, in case I forgot to me

"Reached" - The beginning of the end Ô.Ô - Chapter 1-8

I'm finally going to finish this series! YEEEAH. I'm SO excited to finally see how it ends!! No, just kidding, I already know that the third book will probably be the worst one. But let's do this anyway! I'll continue with the summary right where I stopped, I hope I mentioned everything that's important now in one of previous blogs.... Summary : This time the book is written from three different perspectives, Cassia, Ky and Xander, so it won't be easy to properly describe what's going on exactly, but I'll try. Cassia has been sent to Central by the Rising to work as a sorter and has been told to wait until she gets a 'special' task to do. One day she receives a message from Ky telling her to meet him at a lake, late at night. When she's about to leave her apartment, an Official appears and tells her to come with him to her workplace. Cassia immediately knows that this is the opportunity the Rising was talking about and sorts eve
