Kiera Cass's The Selection (The Selection Series #1)

4.4/5 stars

I have been putting off reviewing this book for awhile. I'm not completely sure why, but I have. This book was an emotional roller coaster that messed with my feelings. I felt at times like I was being made fun of while other times I feel like I am falling in love too. I'm sorry if I mess up any of the details from this book in my review. I will try my best not to but, I read all the books about twice so they have kind of blended together.

America is breaking a lot of rule being with Aspen, but they don't care. That is until the selection. Now, America is thrust into a competition she doesn't want to be in. She has to fight for a man she doesn't love. Will friendship turn to love? Will old loves fall apart? Everything is tested.

Character Development: 5 stars

Story Line: 4.5 stars.

Readability: 5 stars.

Writing style: 3.5 stars.

My enjoyment: 4 stars.

Average Star Score: 4.4 stars.

Things I Liked

  • America is strong and holds her ground. She knows what she wants and will do anything to get it.

  • Marley is the ray of sunshine this book desperately needed.

  • Maxon is just the perfect man, everything seems great about him (emphasis on seems)

  • The characters developed and change over the book(and series)

Things I Did Not Like

  • This is supposed to be a young adult novel, but I feel like I was reading a book meant for 7-10 year olds. No offense to anyone who loved the series, I just wasn't challenged.

  • I just hate how Aspen acts throughout the story (but I wouldn't change a thing about him.)

This series was so good. I can’t remember I I told my friend about or if she told me about it, I just know she finished the series before me. And that we both loved it. At the moment I own the first and third book in hardcover and all the books in audiobooks. I believe that if you like dystopian and romance, THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU! No pressure.
