After reading Matched

After I read the novel Matched, I automatically wanted to read the next series. The book had an amazing plot. I was surprised how Xander still wanted to help Cassia even though she was falling for Ky. In the middle of the story some scene were unnecessary. When the Official from the greenspace explained that she was controlling and knew about Cassia and Ky, I was shocked. I had the impression that their government didn't know. Reading through it was hard because it started to get boring. I really want to find out if Cassia finds Ky and is able to escape the totalitarian government and be able to choose what she wants in life. I also wonder what would happen to Xander after Cassia runs away to find Ky.
