That's a stretch. Shipping fictional characters is completely different from wanting the government to force real people into relationships.


* {{Ship To Ship Combat}}: Team Xander vs. Team Ky, with Cassia/Ky being the OfficialCouple... in a book about how matching others is wrong, meaning...

OfficialCouple.

Fan Preferred Couple means that couple isn't official, but Cassia x Ky is official

That's obvious and intended horror, and not Fridge Horror.


** The fact that the Society actually [[spoiler:''poisons'']] the elderly to ensure that [[spoiler:they actually die when the Society says so]].

Added DiffLines:

* StrangledByTheRedString: Ky and Cassia in the first book. Really, all that happens is that they run together and Ky teaches her how to write in old English. And they hardly speak of anything personal, yet they fall in love so easily...

Added DiffLines:

** Another example: The [[spoiler:red pill]]. The fact that it can cause the people who aren't immune to lose their [[spoiler:memories]] over the past twelve hours, which means that the Society [[spoiler:can basically make up any story and brainwash their citizens if they need to hide anything. Case in point: what actually happened to Matthew Markham]].
** The fact that the Society actually [[spoiler:''poisons'']] the elderly to ensure that [[spoiler:they actually die when the Society says so]].

Added DiffLines:

* FridgeHorror: So, apparently everyone is matched according to genetic compatibility, rather than preference. This obviously means a person of the opposite sex. They have no choice in this, and it's permanent. What happens to homosexuals?

This isn\'t YMMV. Moving.


* FollowTheLeader: Like other dystopian romances published in the same time period, it wants to catch some of the sun that ''Literature/TheHungerGames'' is basking in. In this case, Cassia is Katniss, Xander is Gale, Ky is Peeta, Bram is Prim, and Eli is Rue.
** Some detractors have noted that the Society is ''uncomfortably'' similar to [[TheGiver the Community]].
