The
Selection by Kiera Cass
In our
near future, North and South America has joined to be a country named Illea,
ruled by a king. Illea’s citizens are organized into castes, with 1 being the
royals, and 8 being the untouchables. The only way to move up is to marry
someone in a higher caste, or to enter the Selection. The Selection is a
competition for 35 girls to compete for the heart of the Prince, and become the
future Queen. America Singer enters with her heart belonging to another, and no
real desire to win. However, she quickly falls in love with Prince Maxon. The
problem? There’s 34 other girls ready to fight nail and tooth to become a 1.
Kiera Cass
delivers a quick and easy read. It’s funny, believable, and the world building
isn’t forced on the reader. It’s a very girly book, with a lot of descriptions
of the dresses. It isn’t too complex. There aren’t many other books of this topic,
so it isn’t truly comparable. This book is marketed for pre-teens, who I l
believe would like it. I would pick up this book if you want to simply have a
fun read. Briana B.; Teen Reviewer
