Book Review: The Selection by Kiera Cass


    America Singer is a Class 5 singer in love with a lower class worker and thinks that everything in her life is as perfect as it can be. That is until her family receives a letter in the mail stating that she has the opportunity to register for The Selection and potentially be chosen as the prince's bride. She doesn't want to do it, but after pestering from both her mom and boyfriend she agrees. She doesn't think there is a chance she will be chosen, but when her boyfriend breaks up with her and she is selected it becomes a temporary escape. 

    Once she arrives at the palace America becomes claustrophobic which ends in a chance encounter with the very prince she has already decided she does not like. The only thing is Prince Maxon is nothing like he has seemed. In fact, maybe this is just the distraction she needs to nurse her broken heart. 

    I started this book because it had a pretty dress on the cover and have heard is as a suggestion to read in the past. I was quickly pulled into the dystopian future comparing it not only to our current world but to the world of the Hunger Games. Only thing is instead of rooting for the male at home I liked the one she meets outside her home. Prince Maxon is open and honest and anyone who knows too much about me knows I am a sucker for a redhead so America and Maxon would be amazing together. That is if they go down that path together and if she decides she can move on from Aspen. 

    For anyone who loves Hunger Games or Mortal Instruments I would suggest this one to you. There is nothing better than a good YA romance. This book is available on Amazon for $6.48 or with Kindle Unlimited at https://amzn.to/3klYqGy.
