“For tho’ from out our bourne of Time and Place
the flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
when I have crossed the bar.”

Crossed is the sequel to the book Matched by Ally Condie.
This book is an exciting story of a group of rebellions trying to overcome the Society. I would recommend this book to people who like romance and intense scenes.
