Selection | Kiera Cass
The first book in the captivating, #1 New York Times bestselling Selection series! Discover a breathless fairy-tale romance with swoon-worthy characters, glittering gowns, fierce intrigue, and a dystopian world that will captivate readers who loved Veronica Roth s Divergent, Ally Condie s Matched, and Lauren Oliver s Delirium.For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape a rigid caste system, live in a palace, and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon. But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her, and competing for a crown she doesn t want. Then America meets Prince Maxon and realizes that the life she s always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined."

Glad my sister gave me this one! I had considered reading it years ago and never got around to it. Definitely a cross between The Hunger Games and The Bachelor. Super fun. I like the depth of the story of the country beyond just the selection itself. Quick, riveting read.

The Selection was no longer something that was simply happening to me, but something I was actively a part of. I was an Elite. I pulled back the covers and leaped into the morning.

A quick 7-day Libby loan so I figured I would do a re-read of this one to get out of a funk. It worked! Might as well read all the rest now.

3.75⭐
This was exactly what I expected it to be...fast paced.. addictive like candy... slightly predictable..but just enough shockers to keep you invested.
It was a fun palette cleanser and I'm interested in continuing on

KateReadsYA I need to start this one. 1y
brittanyreads I'm happy I did! 🙃 It's very 2000s YA. @KateReadsYA 1y

Of course this trilogy is trash and has sexist tendencies, but it‘s perfect for sunny weekends while you enjoy your Aperol Spritz.

Hated the reader‘s voice (sounded robotic), and it didn‘t live up to the hype, but I like the premise so much (The Hunger Games meets The Bachelor) that I‘ll continue with the series.

I was in a reading slump and decided a quick reread of this one would be a great idea. YA dystopian novel about a competition to become the next queen. I love the female friendships, political discussions, and readability. So easy to dive into and hard to put down. This was just what I wanted and I‘m on to the next one during this busy work season.

UGH 😍😭 needed something like this to catapult me out of a bad book binge! So easy to fly through in a day or two & great, casual writing style. Hunger Games meets the Bachelor, especially at first, but it ends up becoming it‘s own fantastic story!! Loved and so ready to inhale ANYTHING by this author!

This was my #doublespin for April with @TheAromaofBooks

It also is for #Booked2022 about a royal. I listened to it in one day on April 1. I hated the narrator, and the story felt like Hunger Games meets The Bachelor. It was just ok for me, and I will not be reading more in the series.

TheAromaofBooks This one has been on my shelf for a while! 3y

Such a good book! I like the dystopian setting and honestly, I‘d read a whole history textbook about the backstory behind Illéa. I liked the characters and the plot, but I wish there was more talk about the food they ate. 5?

I thought this was a super good book. Almost like a mix of Esther and The Hunger Games, minus the death and killing.

3/5
It‘s your typical fast-paced, cutesy, YA book that‘s been in my TBR for awhile. Not much plot depth. It ropes you in with poor girl given a chance to turn her life around; a unique element was adding the caste system. Good political & historical components without throwing narratives or opinions in your face. It‘s enough reality tv show mixed with real teenage life feel. Super quick read that made me want to pick up the next, I‘m invested.

This is an awesome book I‘m only halfway through but when I pick up this book I can‘t put it down. The plot so far is really great too I recommend reading it.

I really enjoyed this lighthearted YA romance. At first, it was a little slow for me as I was figuring out the timeline and the caste system. It does take place in the future when the US no longer exists after WW4.
I like America a lot. She is spunky and stubborn, but very caring.
Some parts were very predictable, but overall it was a page turner for me and I really enjoyed it. I have a book hangover now!

OH. MY. GOSH what is this book? I love it!
I could hardly put it down and before I knew it, it was over. I‘m currently in the 3rd book as I type this😅

It‘s the perfect amount of romance and cheesy comedy. Just like junk food, sometimes you need a book like this to feed your soul. And in my case, it‘s a rare indulgence since I tend to avoid romance novels altogether.

Rating: 5/5

100% a guilty pleasure.

A group of girls fighting for the attention of a Prince, cringe but totally engrossing too. Between the catty ones, the shy ones, the happy ones it‘s totally a addictive story.

I‘m looking forward to reading the next one!
