Theme - Matched

Matched by Ally Condie

Theme
The theme for the characters in the story is "falling in love with a person's story is the same as falling in love with person himself"(196). This could be a theme for the characters because the story line is that you don't get to choose who you love the government officials choose for you. But Cassia isn't in love with her Match, she is falling in love with another person; Ky, who is the person on Xander's micro card. Cassia ends up meeting Ky and starts to like him more then her Match who she thought at first she was extremely happy that Xander was her Match.
