The Selection Series

At the start of this term I started reading a series called the 'Selection' By Kiera Cass. There is three books in the series'; The Selection, The Elite and The One. I was recommend to read this series by a friend. I have finished the first and second book. The books were really easy to read, I personally didn't enjoy the books as the the story line wasn't for me. Although if you enjoy books that a non fiction and romantic, then this will be the book for you. The books are very quick and easy.

The Selection and The Elite: 

This is the first book in the series by Kiera Cass. America Singer, (I know very funny name) is the main character in the book. America is a very strong minded and extremely brave. She cares for others more than herself, even if they were lower than her in the caste. The caste system works from 1 to 8. One mean royalty and 8 meaning homeless. Americas a 5, fives are mostly artists and musicians. There is a royal family with a King, Queen and Prince. The prince holds a selection, this is where 35 girls from different castes are sent to live in the caste with the prince Maxon. The last girl standing will marry the Prince. America is one of these girls. But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn’t want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks. Then America meets Prince Maxon. The prince is very kind, although he is ver childish. Gradually, she starts to question all the plans she’s made for herself (Marrying Aspen) and realizes that the life she’s always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined.The story continues with a love triangle between, America, Aspen and Maxon. Many girls are forced to leave the Selection, at the end of the second book only 5 girl remain. 

The books were pretty fluffy and romantic. There wasn't much drama or action, even with the rebel attacks. I am planning of reading the third just to finish the series and find out who America will end up with, Aspen or Maxon?
