This story is amazing

Le ha gustado mucho y ya lo está leyendo

America is the classic female heroine who falls in love with a boy. Except Kiera Cass just makes this age-old cliché a thousand times better! Even though I knew exactly what the ending was going to be as soon as I read the first chapter, I was addicted and read all 5 books in a week. I definitely ate up the romance. A good solid read!

Loved the book went through it so fast. Great for easy reading

I first rated this book a two stars as it was printed wrong, I have got a new copy and finally read the book, this book is amazing. It has drama, romance, and love triangle, which I don't love but this was an exception. It was a great mix of character and plot, and the outfits and dresses in the books are so beautiful. I ordered the whole set and cannot be more happy.

This book reminded me of the stories my mother used to narrate to lull me to sleep. Its the story of prince and princesses. A story of love set in the dystopian time where the king rules the world. I found this book to be really sweet and a great fluffy read.Since this is the first book in the series we get to know about all the main characters that will lay the character basics ahead in the next book of the series "SELECTION".The story opens up to the various divisions in the society and the various hardships that the people of the lower divisions have to face. The royal family is the "ONE" and obviously placed in the highest rank. The description of the world was not that greart to be honest. And it did not feel anything dystopian. There was not a proper world building in this book.Our main character America Singer is in the 5th division where their main job is surrounded around music,art and culture. America is a singer. She goes along with her mother to various occations where they perform. She has other siblings as well. Some are married and some are younger than her. She has seen a life of struggle. She never expected anything great to happen in her life.She is also seen to love a man who is a rank lower than her which proves that the divisions of the society do not bother her. But i felt that her character was too good to be true. She was all good and no bad. She is the perfect princess material which i felt a little made up and not all that natural.The prince is another adorable character in this book but again he is too perfect. I felt he was kind of stiff and is unrealistic. He is calm and understanding. He respects women and takes care of all of them.He is really manly and hansome and responsible. But he dosent know how to romantically approach a women. He is clumsy in that field. But he likes America. He has found a friend in her.He is naughty at times and understanding at other. He is ready to help out but when time demands him to be stern, he becomes soo.America has formed an interesting relation with the prince where i cant say if it is love or friendship. She is confused herself.She is guilt concious of all her actions. The palace life is not the one for her- This is what she thinks. She is mentally exahusted from the fight between her former love,Aspen and the prince. At the same time she is really seen to miss her family.What i found irritating was America was so confused about everything. She was confused about Aspen and the prince and the whole competition. And Aspen.. I JUST WANTED TO KICK HIM. He was really really irritating.I just could not stand the course of actions he took. I mean who encourages his girlfriend to be in a competition to be someone else's bride. And even later his actions were too much to take in for me. But despite all that i really like this book. Its a perfect fluffy read if you want to just de-stress yourself.Beautiful character and beautiful plots are laid out for the future ahead. A too perfect fairy tale with a too perfect love story and a too perfect kingdom with practically no war except a little infiltration for something mysterious which i hope will be disclosed in the later book of these series.
