It‘s been a while since I got through this series, but I loved being completely immersed in the world of this kingdom. The romance, the drama, and all the different characters made for an enchanting story. Really really loved it!

I loved this book. I read the whole series as fast as I could. one thing that was eh was the constant changing of america‘s opinion. just pick a guy. i was also really sad to see that america‘s dad died and maxon‘s mom, the relationship between her and america would have been great. overall I loved this book and will definitely be reading it again.

A close friend asked me to read these this weekend so we could talk about them, and since they were fast and easy I complied. I‘d put them between a so so and s pick, or 3/5 stars for entertainment. I was irritated by the love triangle, and I thought the story and plot shallow but it still read quickly with likable characters for all three books. More angst than I like in general but reading 3 books in three days is a good sign they entertain.

Texreader I‘m interested to hear how your friend ranked them since she so badly wanted you to read them. I‘ll bet that‘s a fun conversation! 3y
Chrissyreadit @Texreader she loved them- and it‘s funny because we have many books we both love but every so often we disagree. 3y
Texreader Was she disappointed you didn‘t like them more? 3y

Chrissyreadit @Texreader I just finished the third one so will talk tomorrow. I think she will be surprised. But she loves fashion and America‘s next top model and i don‘t like reality tv. 3y
Texreader @Chrissyreadit What fun though! I love talking about books!! 3y
Chrissyreadit @texreader me too! I want her to join litsy but she is not a social media fan. 3y
HOTPock3tt I found them very entertaining! And read them quickly as well :) loved the MC‘s, but I agree I didn‘t like the love triangle either. 3y
jmtrivera Agree with all of this! 3y

⭐️...So, this is my own fault. I binged all the Twilight movies, & realized I missed my YA Fantastical Romance‘s (I took a break a few years ago) I‘ve owned book 1 of The Selection for years, & ended up diving in. Fast forward to a few days later, & I‘ve finished the trilogy...& it was...really bad. This series would have been decent had it been ONE book. Written at the hype of the “trilogy” age, & stretched to death, it was unbearable by the end.

LazyLibrary Continued: incomplete world building, stereotypical, shallow characters, a heroine that NEVER made a decent choice. It seems the author shoved villains and “action” in where she could. If she didn‘t have an answer? Just dance around it, the reader won‘t care! Right!? WRONG. And an overall “romance” that fell flat and was, in my own words, wack. Will I watch the Netflix movie? Yes. Can I recommend these books to someone for reading? No. 3y

Just finished this lovely series about a girl in a competition to win the heart of the prince. It's like a royal "Bachelor" and I thoroughly enjoyed this series. I'd highly recommend to anyone who loves stories about royalty and handsome princes!

I have a sort of love / hate relationship with this series. But if I really think about it, I would say I loveeee this series more than hate because of the damn FEELS!

Honestly, I'm not really a fan of harem hahaha 🤣 I got bored with the romance. And when I got to the part that the girl, Amerika, is in love with 2 boys and couldn't decide which one, so she kept the two companies -- I bailed the book (sorry 🙈🙈).

Such a great summer vacation read. To be honest I liked the first book of the series the best! The last one seemed a little rushed.

#theselection #saga was great, but I think #kiaracass could had stop in the 3rd #book. With the daughter story wasn't to much, just that the last 2 books were bored! Would you have liked it to end in the 3rd or did you like the last 2?

Selection series is a very good series that you can read it just to be happy 💖
Actually I loved the first three books more than the others cause the whole story was about America singer and Maxon ....Kiera didn't need too stretch the novel for their children you know ?!
But overall the series is so pretty especially the covers are AMAZING 😍
If you have a reading slump I recommend reading this series 💕

Oh. My. Gosh. This prompt! I purchased all of these books because of the covers. And looks there... my impulse cover buys are covered in dresses. There are more I could post but I had to show the covers in the best way with this collage. Only Luxe is still on my TBR The rest are awesome. #dressesoncovers #readjanuary #morethanjustaprettycover #ya #coverlove

I saw this series all over Instagram so of course it found its way into my Amazon cart. Overall, the story and characters were decent. Parts were better than others. I just felt like the whole series could have been more developed, richer and more opulent story-wise.

@stormborn, I have not squealed since I was about 17, until I read this book. So much girlish excitement!

caitycreel I read these while I was living in 3054. So girly, but fun! 8y

I gave this book 3.5/5 stars. I felt like the romance wasn't that great and it was kind of confusing. I really like both Aspen and Maxon. I will definitely continue and finish the series. This book felt like the bachelor. 😂

ShatterMeFangirl Agreed😂 Maxon is the best😍 8y
ObsessiveBookNerdLauren I agree with you! I gave the first three books a collective 3.5 stars. 8y

BookJunkie429 @LianneB Nothing to be embarrassed about, The Selection is really good! Too bad there isn't a real reality show where you can marry a Prince. Haha! 8y
BookJunkie429 @ReadingOver50 It's reality tv in a book, with extremely beautiful clothes. Lol 8y
BookJunkie429 @ShatterMeFangirl are you loving them? 8y
ShatterMeFangirl @BookJunkie429 Yes!!!! I started reading them in 7th grade but then the last one came out a couple weeks ago I think😁🤗 8y

What a terrible book. Terrible writing. Terrible, overdone love trilogy. Terrible, empty characters with zero depth. It's not even a good popcorn book. #runaway

Not that it's perfect, but I couldn't put this YA novel down until I'd finished it. My work out plans may have gone by the wayside, but I thoroughly enjoyed this take on reality entertainment.
