Challenge: Character Soulmates hosted by Blue Books and Butterflies

"Today I have the Character Soulmates Challenge for you. It's great because we are going to be shipping characters from different books. Have you ever thought __(person)__ from this book would be just perfect with __(person)__ from this other book? Well here is your chance to finally pair them up and watch the sparks fly." 

I don't really ship characters from different books. But in a previous read-a-thon, I was faced with a similar question and I find that these two characters would have a great frienship.

Ship Name: Lessia (I don't even know how to read this) 

Reason: I think Cassia from "Matched" by Ally Condie and Lena from "Delirium" by Lauren Oliver would be good friends. They both grew up in dystopian societies and love opened their eyes to the truth. These two girls have lots in common. They would understand each other - they know how it's to be afraid of a controlling society; how it is to love someone you can't - and build a unbreakable friendship.
