Red Pill

Reached by Ally Condie (Matched Series, 3)

Who is the pilot? What is going on? Why?

These are questions I asked throughout every word I read. I’d like to think it is all a metaphor to how the world and society is, but I’m not smart enough to think too deep into it.

So I won’t bore you with the details of what I think the book symbolizes. Let's talk about what we just read. Where did the author go wrong? Well how is it that Xander was barely mentioned in the sequel and yet he has his own POV. I simply thought it was interesting at first because it was important to the plot, but as I read more, I realized that he, along with Ky and Indie have an important role to the story. It makes Cassia who is the main character of the story, seem as if her role in the story is insignificant. Seriously what was the point in including her perspective if she isn’t really doing anything. Also, Ky and Cassia relationship which was the main plot in the first and second book is no longer important as to Cassia’s relationship to Xander, and Ky’s relationship with Indie. For me, it was not a question of who would end up with who, but a question of was it necessary to include these new relationships in the plot for drama effect and suspense.

This was my least favorite book, even as the author tied up the series beautifully. I did not enjoy how different it was to the previous books. It ruined the innocence of the first book.

The red pill is the center of the final book. Not going to lie, at first I thought the red pill was death. It's worse.


Warning: People are not so different.


Quien es el piloto? Que esta pasando? ¿Por qué? Estas son preguntas que hice con cada palabra que leí. Me gustaría pensar que todo es una metáfora de cómo es el mundo y la sociedad, pero no soy lo suficientemente inteligente como para pensar demasiado en ello. Así que no te aburriré con los detalles de lo que creo que simboliza el libro. Hablemos de lo que acabamos de leer. ¿Dónde se equivocó el autor? Bueno, ¿cómo es que Xander apenas fue mencionado en el libro anterior y, sin embargo, tiene sus propio capitulos? Simplemente pensé que era interesante al principio porque era importante para la serie, pero cuando leía más, me di cuenta de que él, junto con Ky e Indie, tenían una parte importante en el libro. Hace que Cassia, quien es el personaje principal de la serie, parezca que su parte en el libro es insignificante. En serio, ¿qué sentido tenía incluir su perspectiva si realmente no estaba haciendo nada? Además, la relación de Ky y Cassia, que fue el amor principal en el primer y segundo libro, ya no es importante como la relación de Cassia con Xander y la relación de Ky con Indie. No se trataba de quién terminaría con quién, sino de si era necesario incluir estas nuevas relaciones en el libro no mas porque da mas efecto y suspenso. Este fue mi libro menos favorito, pero el autor me contesto todas las preguntas que ha tendio durante leer la serie. No disfruté de lo diferente que era con los libros anteriores. Arruinó la inocencia del primer libro. La pastilla roja es el centro del libro final. No voy a mentir, al principio pensé que la pastilla roja era la muerte. Es mas peor.

Advertencia: Las personas no son tan diferentes.
