I am on a Selection craze and have been since I picked up the first book over a year ago. As I’m currently savoring The One (the final book in the trilogy) I find myself incredibly sad that the story is coming to an end. This makes me even more excited to check out The Queen when it comes out in December – I simply cannot get enough of this series. Aside from my obsession, I find Amberly’s selection journey to be just as curious as America’s and look forward to finding out more about her. She’s easily one of my favorite characters!

It’s definitely not for everyone – the broader conflicts have a couple of holes and isn’t well imagined at all. The narrower, interpersonal conflicts, however, are absolutely outstanding, which is why I love this series so much. Go into it with a grain of salt :-)

December? OMG that’s just too damn far away to wait! I’m just starting in on the 2nd book and I’m in love with this series. Surprised me I must say. I didn’t think I would like it as much as I have. I just bought the 3rd book because I know I’ll have the 2nd one read within a few days and I just have to find out what happens. My only complaint is that…so far…it’s been kind of predictable….don’t care though. Fun story.
