Matched

I finished my fourth book, Matched by Ally Condie.  I had high hopes for it because I'd heard several times that it was a good dystopian novel with a lot of YA romance, which sounded right up my ally.  However, I don't think it was written very well. it's certainly a young adult romance novel with a totalitarian government but honestly, it's just not captivating.  The story in general held promise but ultimately, it wasn't good to me.  I may end up reading the sequels (Crossed and Reached), but I don't feel a huge pull to do so.

As for my next book, I'm going to start Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. I've heard good things, both about Scott's writing in general and about this series so I'm excited to start. :)
