Tachi (To be finished)
Sorry if this seems like I'm hating on the book. I'm just saying why I don't like it. This book isn't a waste of paper, unlike Fallen.
I can be the weird and probably only one who doesn't like a books, especially when it comes to popular books. Despite America's "fiery" attitude or how she was different from the other girls, she felt flat to me. I couldn't relate to her at all, and if I was really in love with Aspen, then it wouldn't have taken me so little time to get over him, even if she saw him with someone else. I, well, didn't like her. I found her really predictable—no, the book predictable. And it has an incredibly weak love triangle that's trying to write itself off as that.
It didn't feel dystopian. At all. How can it be Bachelor(which I don't like anyways) meets the Hunger Games at all? To me, it feels more like Boys Over Flowers(which I hate) meets Bachelor. Basically, girl doesn't make a move on the boy, but the boy has interests in her and find her different from all the other girls. I find that judgmental.

Caru I'm currently reading the Selection!Team Maxon!!


message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

OMG!!!!!! This is one of my favorite books!!! I just finished The Selection and The Elite and I absolutely love it!!!! I don't like Aspen though.
America better end up with Prince Maxon or this series will be b******t!!!

Anyways I also love the covers! They're amazing. For the 3rd one I wanted green but white looks so much better!

Can't wait till the third one comes out! May 6th 2014. I'm going to buy it right away.

TEAM MAXON!!!!!!

(reminds me of twilight *sighs* not the story but the teams. Maxon is like Edward and Aspen is Jacob. Ha ha ha ;-) America is soooo much better than Bella. Ugh hate Bella)

Hahahhahahh same feeling here too:P

that stupid Aspen guy .... seriously got ISSUES .....


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah! I got so angry at him when he broke up with America in the first book. I mean she made him food and he dumps her! And so what if he's poor?!? America told him that she loves him no matter what!!! But whatever...
I hope Aspen and Lucy get together though, and Maxon and America.

I just finished reading the Elite , The prince and Tje gaurd........
Yup!!! i wish he ends up With LUCY or even Celeste :P

He and Celeste would make a good pair :P


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

Celeste was kind of a ... Plus I'm pretty sure Celeste won't want Aspen, she doesn't even want Prince Maxon. She just wants the crown !


message 20: by Basma (new)

Basma (bookishbasma) Maxon is amazing. Period.


message 21: by [deleted user] (new)

Totally agree!!!! :-)
But in The Elite, what almost happened between him and Celeste was just...* mind blowing*

I really do hope America and Prince Maxon get together! :-)
