“Your family is the most important part of your life. Your families are the people you love, and love is what separates us from scoundrels and criminals. It maintains order. Your parents, your sibling, and your Partner, are the ones you love. There should never, ever, be anyone else who comes close to that bond. You have only one best friend, and that is the person you’ll be marrying someday. We must learn to differentiate the relationships in our lives: the people we love, and the ones we don’t. It’s inappropriate, it’s foolish, and it’s forbidden to think otherwise.” Trace Bailey’s mouth is her worst enemy – somehow it always gets her in trouble. Luckily, she has a partner in crime – her best friend and neighbor since age seven, Piren Allston. He can’t get enough of her crazy sense of humor, and she loves that he’s always up for another adventure. They can’t be friends, though, not in their world. Trace and Piren were Assigned to other people at the age of six, and they’re supposed to marry their Partners when they turn twenty-four. Failure to comply leads to Banishment, a fate worse than death. Worse still is the growing realization that their bond is stronger than just friendship. In a world without freedom, there are still choices to be made. Following their hearts means losing their family, but following the law means losing each other. Forever.

By Ara the Writer *** I received an ARC in return for an honest review ***If more dystopians were like MISSING PIECES, the genre would still thrive and no one would complain about too much dystopian. Because there’s no such thing as too much great storytelling. And Meredith Tate delivers a page turner of a story.Let me be clear: debut author, Meredith Tate, remains true to fans of the genre while keeping it fresh and not relying on overused approaches. She has breathed life into a genre that has suffered in the last couple of years.The protagonists, two best friends, Piren and Tracy, are natural. They remind you of the couple you knew in school who were so good with each other. And over the years you and your friends wondered when they’d wake up. Well, in the case of Piren and Tracy, it’s not about waking up and realizing that they are perfect for each other. Their feelings are illegal because they are not paired/assigned to each other. In this world (which feels eerily familiar) even a friendship is illegal. This is a relationship that can not be.When they’re together they hum. Their dialogue flows with ease. Their chemistry is organic and beautiful. And although there were a couple of scenes where I wanted to strangle the guy, he is fundamentally a good guy. The perfect guy for her. As the name of the book implies, they are each other’s missing piece.The writing is effortless and the storytelling compelling. By mid point, the book has hit a fast stride. So when twists happen, the derailment is profound and well executed. I may have grunted in pain a few times.And can I say how nice it is that the story reaches a conclusion in this book? Maybe Tate will write a follow up, and I’d love to see how the world evolves, but it’s not required. Which makes this very atypical, but oh so welcome. I am so tired of artificially derived multi book series. Tate plays fair with her readers and delivers across the board.A fantastic book and a beautiful cover. I look forward to more great stories from Meredith Tate.

In her character driven New Adult Dystopian , MISSING PIECES spans ten years in the lives of two best friends, Tracy Bailey and Piren Allston, whose friendship pushes society's boundaries of what it means to love. Think Ally Condie's MATCHED and Lauren Oliver's DELIRIUM. But, where Condie's and Oliver's worlds focus on exposing the government's short-comings and bringing them to heal, Tate's world is character-centric. Each character is bound by the laws of society. They don't set out to change the world, just themselves...and their hearts.In MISSING PIECES, each person is paired with his/her perfect genetic match in order to produce the healthiest offspring. Children are Assigned to their future mate at birth, then revealed to one another at the ripe old age of six when they're officially Assigned to their Partner in a chilling and awkward ceremony. From that moment on, the Assigned couple is meant to interact with their future spouse as often as possible, even forced to greet each other with rote "I love yous." From the Assigning ceremony at age six, the first kiss ceremony at sixteen, cohabitation at twenty, and marriage at twenty-four, the Assigned couple's life is set out before them. Love your Partner or risk banishment. Follow the rules...not your heart.But, what happens when your Partner isn't who you're meant to be with? What happens when the Assigning system is wrong?Tate pulls at your heartstrings when she chronicles the easygoing friendship of Tracy and Piren as young children Assigned to different people. From the onset, Tracy and Piren have undeniable chemistry. You can't help but root for them. As time goes on, Tracy and Piren's friendship blossoms into something more. But, because they aren't Assigned, they must stifle their true feelings or be banished forever. With the fear of banishment ingrained into their heads, Tracy and Piren deny themselves true happiness. The banished community is the big, bad, scary unknown. But, in truth, real life is scarier. When Tracy and Piren figure this out, life takes on a whole new meaning.MISSING PIECES sucks you in and won't let you go until the very end. Tate paints a gorgeous, heart-wrenching portrait of what it truly means to love someone. Sometimes it's messy, complicated, and sacrifices have to be made in order to find your missing piece.

I was expecting to read it over the course of a few days but ended up finishing it in one sitting because I couldn't stop turning the pages. Meredith Tate's story MISSING PIECES breathes new life into the Dystopian genre. Unlike many of the stories I've read, her dystopian world fits eerily into our own, creating a new world in the very one we live in...and that's exactly what makes it different and exciting. The characters have jobs, go to school and hang out with friends exactly as we would with one glaring exception: they are matched through a computer system with their optimal mate and this rules their existence.Tracy and Piren have been friends since they were little--but they're Assigned to marry other partners at the age of 24. The story realistically builds their attraction from age 14 onward and more than that, captures all the small things that make someone appealing. Each chapter moves the story forward and switching between their perspectives allows for a greater understanding of the world they live in and the dire consequences of falling in love, which could lead to Banishment, a fate worse than death.I loved the way Tracy and Piren's relationship developed organically and their banter back and forth was fun to imagine, not a far cry from the silliness we experience with friends. Their maturity also realistically developed so despite being in my twenties, reading about a 14-year old didn't feel as though I was so old or they were so young--instead, I felt at home with this story.I'd recommend this story to anyone for the unique plotline, the realistic characters across the board and the incredible weaving of futuristic concepts into our own world. If you love a good love story and some suspense, I would tell you not to wait and order MISSING PIECES now.
