APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Kiera Cass’ enchanting science-fiction romance became a worldwide hit. The first book in the series introduces readers to the Selection: a national contest to determine the next princess of Illéa, a post–World War III kingdom where social castes are numbered from one to eight. America Singer—a fiery musician with whip-smart insights into politics and romance—is reluctantly drawn into the intense competition to win Prince Maxon’s hand. Cass seduces us with the sparkling charms of the royal palace while also aligning us with her compassionate protagonist, who rails against an unjust regime.
Customer Reviews
I can read it again and again!!!
Best book I've read in a long time!!! I just finished it and I want to reread it because I can't take my mind off of it. I'm just ticked that I have to wait to continue the trilogy! I definitely recommend this one, though. This book will definitely join the classics!
Good read but short
I literally stayed up all night reading it. It's a pretty good non stop page turner. That being said it felt a little rushed at times and rather short! There was just a little more umph that I wanted and it almost ended abruptly. I kinda wanted some kinda closure! That being said can't wait for next one!
**BTW ITUNES: I can't upload reviews from my iPhone 4S (up to date) on any book! I press "send" and nothing happens.
