I dont know how the hell to rate this. I keep going back and forth between 3 and 4 stars.America was terrible the entire book. Shes highly insecure and irrational and makes the dumbest choices based on made up situations, which honestly, same, but SHE SHOULD AT LEAST RECOGNIZE THAT SHE IS DUMB.Its also annoying that any time Maxon even looked at her wrong, she immediately ran into Aspens arms. And yet, she cant stand that Maxon is dating the other girls. Like....what. Girl caught a case of theI raced through this book because I love the concept and where the story seems to be heading, but OH MY GOODNESS America was so frustrating. I discuss the whole thing in depth in my booktalk here: http://youtu.be/m7UHt8a4G9g
It turns out I'm absolutely terrible at staying away from you. It's a very serious problem. Tears! Love-triangles! More tears! Whining! Even more tears! Annnd....honestly, that's pretty much it(Could we make it one chapter without her dissolving into tears? No? Fabulous. )Picking up where we left off, America is in the "Elite" (the top 6 of the Selection - aka the Bachelor/Princess Diaries mashup). She's joined by Celeste (the B*tch), Marley (the best friend), and three other totally
I told you America.......those vipers who can wear 7-inch heels are deadly.Honestly, who cares if it's only down to six girls now??!! They're still vipers. They can still walk on crazy heels without breaking their feet. They're still WOMEN WHO WILL CHALLENGE YOU TO A CAT-FIGHT.Now you guys see how dangerous and how awesome this book is. America still fights with herself and others for Maxon, but honestly, she still doesn't even know where her fricking heart lies. So, I mean, to pile on deadly
sweet holy lord. this goddamn book, my guy.The pitch for this reanimated corpse of a sequel must have been like, "Ok, so it's global bestseller The Selection, except immediately THROW AWAY any traces of entertainment or cuteness or fun. We don't need it. Oh, more? Okay. Um. Keep the love triangle stuff. Actually, you know what? Make that TWO love triangles. Fangirls love that, probably, based on my semi-offensive one-dimensional view of the average YA reader, who is only in it for fictional
So, you see my rating, and you're probably like, ONE STAR? And my answer is yes, one star. I spent a good hour thinking about a reason, any reason to rate it two, but I can't. This was just one books of those books that was not my cup of tea. Which, by the way, is extremely disappointing, considering that I really did like the first book. *sigh*I don't like to bash books and insult the author, but I will say why I did give it such a low rating, in a hopefully non-rude way. *My Opinion. Just a
