Description:
The hotly-anticipated sequel to the New York Times bestseller The Selection.

Thirty-five girls came to the palace to compete in the Selection. All but six have been sent home. And only one will get to marry Prince Maxon and be crowned princess of Illea.

America still isn’t sure where her heart lies. When she’s with Maxon, she’s swept up in their new and breathless romance, and can’t dream of being with anyone else. But whenever she sees Aspen standing guard around the palace, and is overcome with memories of the life they planned to share. With the group narrowed down to the Elite, the other girls are even more determined to win Maxon over—and time is running out for America to decide.

Just when America is sure she’s made her choice, a devastating loss makes her question everything again. And while she’s struggling to imagine her future, the violent rebels that are determined to overthrow the monarchy are growing stronger and their plans could destroy her chance at any kind of happy ending.

I finished The Elite a couple of day's ago actually, and I can't wait for THE ONE!

I still can't believe I haven't picked up The Elite yet! I loved The Selection. I heard the CW will pick up the book for tv, hopefully it turns out good :)

And the covers for this series is so awesomesauce 0.0

*bangs head on computer* Kiera Cass, why are you so amazing? I read the Selection in the beginning of April and had a hold on the Elite at my public library before I was even done.
I'm still on hold.
I may just die.

Loved it... America annoyed me a bit in this book. Also, I'm still team Maxon.

I haven't read it, but I like Maxon better too, so far.

I loved this book!!!! It was totally worth the wait to finally get to read it.

:( it's going to be July by the time I get it

I absolutely loved this book. i just finished it last week. It was definitely better than the first, and it really gets me excited for the third book. I'm exicted to see where this plot will be going.

TEAM MAXON <3

*hits head with laptop*
Need. This. Book.

Now I just feel like I'm that awkward girl, slinking around very underdressed at a fancy party.

I both hated and loved this book at the same time. Maxon is such a brilliant character but I think everything else went kinda downhill. It was a shame because I really wanted to love it.

Finally got it. So far, love it

I honestly can't believe I haven't picked this one up! Loved The Selection!

It's intense. I can't wait for The One. She's played out all the competitions beautifully...I honestly don't know who to root for anymore.

I'm currently reading this one, and I love it a lot! So far I think America is torn between Aspen and Maxon!
