The novel that I chose was Spoiled by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan. The main characters include Molly, Brooke, and Brick Berlin. This book is about a sixteen year old girl named Molly Dix, who, after the death of her mother, moves to Los Angeles, California to live with her biological father, Hollywood movie star, Brick Berlin and her half-sister Brooke. Molly isn’t used to living the life of a rich girl, so when she arrives, she is both excited and terrified; not only that, she’s meeting her dad for the very first time. Brooke welcomes Molly to high fashion and fame with an overwhelming dose of “sisterly love”. But in this town, no one is ever what they seem. I think that Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan built the story in a way that would

The novel Crossed by Ally Condie is the second of the trilogy. In this novel, there were various engaging characters incorporated into the plot. However, there was a character that I additionally favored compared to the others. This character is Indie. She was introduced in the commencement of the novel, specifically in chapter 2. Indie worked along with Cassia in the fields to plant crops so, the Enemy would believe there was civilization in that location. Usually, only Aberrations were transported to do that variation of labor, not Citizens like Cassia. Indie, from the beginning, was intrigued by Cassia and began observing her. For instance, she would watch and attempt to figure her out. When Cassia and Indie were about to be searched, Indie

Romance can be a part of someone’s life, but it isn’t always the main focus. In the article “I Can’t Think About Kissing: Strong Female Protagonists and Romance in Dystopian Young Adult Fiction”, university student Mollie Hall discusses romance in dystopian novels: “Romance is pursued, but it is a side pursuit in the female protagonist’s journey instead of the goal.” (Hall 5). This statement is true in the novel Blood Red Road by Moira Young. Saba is a girl with a plan, who has had her brother stolen from her own home. She vows to get her brother back and sets off on a journey, meeting many interesting, villainous, and kind characters. That being said, Saba finds a bit of romance. This, however, is not her main goal. This is evident during Saba’s first meeting with Jack, her need for help, and her thoughts on her relationship with Jack. To begin, the initial meeting between Saba and Jack demonstrates a romantic viewpoint in the novel. Upon seeing Jack, Saba instantly feels a sense of love from her heartstone, a necklace charm that heats up when you are near your heart’s desire:

The novel Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand is a biography about a man named Louie Zamperini who lived a very puzzling life.

“A girl in a green dress stands waiting, her heart pounding. Me. The screen is dark, and it stays dark. That can only mean one thing” (Condie 6-7). Matched by Ally Condie is about a girl named Cassia Reyes. When she looks at a picture of her Match, suddenly the picture changes, and she falls in love with the boy in the picture even though the Society told her there was a mistake. Now she has to figure out what to do because she is not allowed to love the boy in the picture. Teenage girls should read Matched if they like romance because it has a connection to hiking and it tells people that not everything can be controlled, especially love.

Dystopian Adaptation in the Face of Restriction In Matched, by Ally Condie, Cassia’s life is on a railroad track designed by the leaders of a perfect society, so she can reach her optimal potential. However, Cassia soon finds herself feeling impossibly unique against the uniform Society; she is the only citizen to be matched on her birthday, the only person to be matched to someone in her hometown, and the only one to be matched with two soul mates. Cassia emerges into dangers as she grows closer to her secret soulmate--whispering untold stories and conspiring with him about his dangerous past as he teaches her to write. No one's supposed to be able to write, compose, paint, or sing in the perfect society; there’s just not enough room for everyone

The lock scene presents the question of why Richard married Joan. The Maple's marriage has not disintegrated through time, rather corrupt since conception. The act of 'fixing' the lock forces one to examine whom Richard loved and let slip away. Richards inability to love Joan is present through the “three hardware stores had nothing that even approximately matches the mortise hole it's remat….left" (801). This scene is something of an omission of guilt on behalf of Richard. Although this scene focuses on the lock's removal, hidden within ambiguity is Richard's admission of a love before Joan. Richard's attempt to replace the lock is an attempt to regain his lost love. Moreover, Richard is acting to replace the love for his wife that has disintegrated
