HELLOOOOOOOOOOO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!! It has been a looooooong time since I've been here and I feel bad because I abandoned this thing that I really wanted to do. And that is, write about books I've read. And I really love it because it is the only way for me to speak about the books that I read and liked without boring people that don't like books!!!
Without any further delay, I present to you The Selection series! I've read that last May. And there will be spoilers but I will inform you before they start.
It is a distopian book, a world where humans are categorised in castes, with one being the king and queen, two and three being the richest nd as the numbers go down. so is the money and the respect and the good jobs and everything. Where bigger number look the lower numbers from above.
But, the casts don't matter in one situation. when the king's and Queen's son (or daughter, either way) is at the age to get married. He don't just go out to find a wife! No!! There is a competition, Girls from all casts, aged between 16 to 24 send their pictures and 35 of them are chosen to go to the palace, where only one can win the princes.....heart... yeah I know! But the ones that loose are sent home with money and a better future for them and their families.
Our heroine, named America is class 7, and she never thought that she would have a chance to competing, let along wining. After all she has a boyfriend and ven though he is class 8, she really loves him and he tries his best to bring money for his family, and for his future with America.
Spoiler time! America has to go to the palace and her boyfriend, Aspen, breaks up with her! So America goes to the palace and even though she doesn't want to be there. But she must stay there as long as she can because the more she stays, the more money her family gets. So after meeting with the prince one night, she makes a deal with him. She will stay there and she will help the prince as long as she is there.
But of course after a while, she start to like the prince, Maxon. And she starts to forget Aspen. Until Aspens comes to the palace as one of the guards. And America is torn. And I think she likes more whoever is next to her at that time!!
The world is not like everyone thinks though. Rebels attack the palace all the time. People are angry about the casts, of course! And America also doesn't like that. But the competition is about who is the most likeable to be a queen. Because there are cameras there so whatever they do, everyone sees.
And even though Maxon says to America that he will choose her in she says so, she is torn between Maxon and Aspen. But of course there will be a happy end and Maxon and America will be together and sorry for spoiling the end but I am sure you knew that!!
I liked all of them, they are well writen, gave 4 stars in books one and two and 5 in book 3. There are a lot of things that I didn't like, for examble how America is jelious that Maxon is close with the other contestants, even though she doesn't admit that she loves him and she makes out with Aspen behind Maxon's back!
All in all these are nice books and you will enjoy them. And if you read the forth book called The Heir, featuring America's and Maxon's daughter having to choose a hasbant, please inform me if it is good!! Byeeee!!!
