Celebrate the 10th anniversary of Ally Condie’s multi-million copy bestseller with the deluxe gold edition of this modern dystopian classic!
 
Packed with all-new, exclusive bonus content including: 
• A never-before-seen map of the Matched trilogy world. 
• A Decade of Matched: Ally Condie in conversation with bestselling author Soman Chainani
• Bonus story: "Green Girl in a Green Dress"
• Discussion Guide

In the Society, Officials decide. Who you love. Where you work. When you die.
 
Cassia has always trusted the Society’s choices. And when her best friend appears on the Matching screen, she is certain he’s the one—until she sees another face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. Now she is faced with impossible choices: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she’s ever known and a path no one has dared to follow. Between perfection and the truth.
 
“This futuristic fable of love and free will asks: Can there be freedom without choice? The tale of Cassia’s journey from acceptance to rebellion will draw you in and leave you wanting more.” —Cassandra Clare, New York Times bestselling author of The Mortal Instruments series and The Infernal Devices trilogy
 
“[A] superb dystopian romance.” —Wall Street Journal
 
★ “A fierce, unforgettable page-turner.”—Kirkus, starred review
