“More action, more romance, and a full-scale rebellion.”—Entertainment Weekly
“Gripping and richly satisfying!”—School Library Journal
One young woman's journey began with a momentary glitch in the otherwise perfect façade of the Society. After crossing canyons to break free, she waits, silk and paper smuggled against her skin, ready for the final chapter.
The wait is over.
Cassie has raged against those who threaten to keep away what matters most—family, love, choice. Her quiet revolution is about to explode into full-scale rebellion.

Unpredictable twists and revelations yes, that includes a happy resolution to the trilogy's romantic triangle will leave readers satisfied with the fates of their favorites. Ages 12 up.
Customer Reviews
decent ending
I loved this series so much. Tbh, I thought this book wasn’t as good as the first two; had a few boring parts but it was still a decent book.
Ehhh..
I honestly didn't think this book series were very good. Matched was good, Crossed, that book was so hard for me to read. I can read a book with 500 pages in a couple hours. This book took me like three days t get halfway through the book. It bored me so much that i gave the book back to my friend
Truly Captivating
This is a series where once you get into it, you cannot put it down. At all. Regardless of your age, how long it took you to read it, etc., the fact and the matter is this is an original, engrossing storyline. With a book, when you literally cannot stop thinking about it, when you feel like you're in it, it's an amazing feeling. It's why I love reading. And these are books where that is guaranteed to occur. Honestly shocking, interesting, romantic — I adore them. They keep you guessing. Then leave you in tears. But when words and characters can touch a reader like that, it deserves recognition. It's incredible. If only they were a tad longer! They go by ridiculously fast! Of course, the wait is horrible. But I'll manage. Looking forward to it, absolutely. And when the film comes out at some point... I have high expectations.
