This book is by the amazing Ally Condie.  She is another one of those writers I have met at a book tour.  She was also very sweet.  Her writing probably isn't my favorite but I cant dispute that she is a good writer.  This book is about a society where the town picks who you love for you.  They go to a big ball and get assigned a person, who they will marry and spend the rest of their life with.  The main character gets assigned her best friend and she believes that is perfect.  When she takes her match card home to review her match she is met with a surprise.  An outcast of the town is on her card.  She then cant shake the thought of the boy and gets to know him.  They fall in love and of course it is forbidden.  The book was a little bit slow for me.  It kind of dragged on and there were no good, really juicy parts to keep me interested very much.  There are sequels and I am going to read them but for this first one I didn't find it terribly exciting.  But for those of you who love rebellion against a very strict society and a forbidden love, I would say its a pretty good read.  I would give it six stars out of ten.
