Reached (512 Pages)

Reached is the third book in Ally Condie's Matched,  and Crossed series. Those readers who met and loved Cassia, Xander, and Ky will find this book a wonderful conclusion to the trilogy. A plague has manifested itself throughout the Society and Rising communities. Cassia, as a talented sorter, and Xander as a talented physic, conspire to find a cure as the plague mutates, and Ki becomes a victim of the mutation. Those infected with the mutation are called "the still" which appears to be another name for a coma. They do not move; their eyes remain open, yet they don't appear to see; they don't talk; and the physics are not sure if they can hear, and then they begin to die. Cassia and Xander work feverishly to find a cure and to save Ky's life. But there are obstacles in their way. Readers will find themselves on the edge of their seats as they root for Cassia and Xander to succeed.
