So we finally got all the emotions out the way, hopefully. We gotta get started on the WAR; war waits for no one’s feelings, team. Get planning. What war is being accomplished while 3 hours left in the book..?

Holy cow I LIVE for Chapter 25. How do I marry Kenji? (Jkjk, boy’s got a potty-mouth loll)

“No gun, no sword, no army or king will ever be more powerful than a sentence. Swords may cut and kill, but words will stab and stay, burying themselves in our bones to become corpses we carry into the future, all the time digging and failing to rip their skeletons from our flesh.”

Chapter 16 is full of hilarious dialogue between Kenji and Juliette, and it’s my favorite. I love it. I love them.

Just when I think she can’t get any more dramatic: “I am an hourglass.” (I love her, but oh my gosh.)

Finally finished a short story in this collection that I got stuck on. It ended up being a decent story. Only three more short stories left.

Darn it, I really like Warner.

I want to throw a cardboard box at Bree's head. That being said, I can't read on anymore this evening because their blindness is driving me mad. I'll try again in a week.

Lovingly and respectfully, I want to binge this book so that I can get it off my to-read list because the friend-zone relationship with BOTH POVs is driving me insane. I'm really hoping this plot picks up, too.

Kenji just gave Juliette the toughest, most brutally-honest pep talk, and I admire him so much for it. Because her behavior was getting on my nerves, too tbh.

So do we like Adam or Warner? I’ve seen both names circling around BookTok. At this point I don’t trust either of them.

Homegirl is stressed and panicked, and I don’t blame her.

I’d binge this to the end if I had more time on my hands this afternoon. I love this.

AHHHHHHHHHH

When is this girl ever gonna leave the camp - she just wants to get this plot moving.

I binged through The Wicked King and now I’m here.

Five short stories left.

It's funny - I can already tell this book is not a 5-starred book either, but I stay for the plot anyways. I wouldn't recommend it, but I also can't stop reading.

Darn it, this is gonna be a tough read. Not sure if I’m down for the friends-to-lovers trope. Anyways, we’ll give it a shot.

Okay, I think I like where this is going.

What is this story and why do I keep reading it

Not even two chapters ago I couldn’t even begin to figure out who she was leaning more towards… and though we have yet another possibility, I still could be wrong.

Omgg the Elite are so precious.

THERES NO WAY - TWO PLOT TWIST BOMBS IN TWO CHAPTERS??

YOU CANT DROP A BOMB PLOT TWIST LIKE THAT THIS CLOSE TO THE END (ofc, apparently you can) I’m so devastated for my darling Eadlyn, despite my contrary opinions.

This Selection isn’t gonna end with this book, isn’t it. Also my kindle decided to give out on me for the first time ever since 2021. (Probably not used to my hours-long binging.)

I would die for those 4 Schreave children as a whole. I love their encounters.

Alright genuine wonder: why don’t the bachelors have name tags? They had them in the previous Selection. Maybe it’s because Sylvia (or whoever the main lady who prepped the Selected) isn’t there, it seems.

How will I ever finish this book when these two are so stubborn.
