In today's blog I will be comparing characters from the Midsummer Night’s Dream by Shakespeare and Matched by Ally Condie. There are a lot similar things about the Midsummer Night's Dream and Matched are the characters. In these two books, the characters Hermia and Cassia, Ky and Lysander are the most similar. Cassia and Hermia characters are similar because they are both a rebellious characters because Cassia doesn't really think before she likes Ky. And Hermia likes Lysander and doesn't care about her dad. Ky and Lysander are similar because they are both artistic because Ky knows how to write and is creative. And Lysander is a musicians type person. Also Cassia has feelings for Ky but she is supposed to have like Xander because Xander is Cassia’s match (matches are supposed to get married when they are 21 years old). In Shakespeare's book Hermia has feelings for Lysander, but father wants Hermia to like and marry Demetrius because he is rich. But instead these two characters, Cassia and Hermia like the artistic boys known as Ky and Lysander. In these two books there are people who disagree with Cassia and Hermia for liking those boys, they are the Officials in Cassia’s society (which,the society don’t even know they like each other, but if they know the society will disagree anyways) and Hermia’s father who likes the rich boy. That is the comparison between the Midsummer Night's Dream by Shakespeare and Matched by Ally Condie. Overall I think these two book are very close to the same.
