Better than the first book
Significantly better than ‘the selection’ with some characters’ storylines further developed. Greater exploration of the King’s relationship with Maxon & further interaction with America create a more exciting plot. Additionally, competition from Kriss and Celeste, as well as more information on the rebels add to the book’s intrigue.
I would however have liked more clarity on America’s preference for Maxon over Aspen. It is evident that she no longer loves Aspen as much as she did, so there is no need for the prolonged love triangle structure in the series. Great read nevertheless!
I loved it, one issue though
I overall loved the book the one thing I didn’t like though was how up and down she was with maxon and aspen, at a certain part it started to piss me off. I loved the book and recommend everyone to read it. I thought I was gonna hate the series but I ended up loving it.
Price
I love this series and would love to finish it but I feel that the sequel is a bit too expensive for me right now. Agh!
