I really got into this, once we were at the palace and she'd bumped into Maxon that is. Team Maxon all the way after reading this. He's so nice and gentle with America's feelings and I'm so happy she'd going to give him a chance!Really looking forward to reading The Elite, and hopefully with my birt...
Watch my short spoken review here!America is a really fun protagonist. She's tough but sweet. Smart and nice. Maxon is just perfect. I love his character. He's considerate, caring and sweet. I just love everything about him. If I was America and in the Selection I would know what I would do ;)All th...
After reading many mixed reviews, I honestly didn't expect to like the book as much as I did.So the premises of the story is that 35 girls are selected, in which the Prince will choose among them his future wife, and that said, the future queen of the country.The Selection is to show the country,tha...
Maybe this book isn't for me.I was really trying to like it, give it a chance, whatever. But I just couldn't. I don't hate it, but I think I could've lived without regret If I have never read it.In all fairness, I think the plot was promising.I even like Aspen, Prince Maxon, Marlee...and the other c...
Not as bad as I thought it would be, but not as good as it should have been. I am going to make this fairly simple and separate this into things I liked and things I did not like about The Selection.Things I Liked:1) The background on the History of Illea. I found the background to be believable and...
This book is set in a future North America called Illea. In this country the people are divided by castes. There are quite a few of them, I think eights are the lowest caste, but I can't say for sure because there were so many. The books protagonist is called America and she is a five (artist caste)...
2.5 stars, originally published at Winged Reviews. I couldn’t help myself. It was almost like the feeling you get when you’re in an accident–I was aware I was falling, but I wasn’t able to stop my fall. It’s this weird out of body experience that I got reading this book and why I’m absolutely mystif...
1.5 For some reason that I cannot figure out, I wanted to read The Selection. The Bachelor meets Hunger Games, they promised, both of which I disliked. Why…I don’t know myself very well, apparently.I’m sure everyone is aware of the drama surrounding The Selection, but I still had to read it for myse...
I don't mean this review to be harsh, in theory. My thought after the last page was, "well that was okay." My thoughts now as I consider what I liked (not a lot) and what annoyed my liver (a lot) are challenging this general "that was okay" assertion. Basically, it was fluff. 336 pages of mediocre f...
