It might have been the nostalgia but also it was just so good and fun as I remembered
Ungefär vad jag förväntade mig och fick det jag ville ha. Mysig, snäll bok till unga vuxna. Blev överraskad av nivån på språket samt hur välskriven boken trots allt kändes.

So this book was absolutely raved about by some people I knew, so I went in with pretty good expectations. The Selection had so much promise, being pitched as a YA mix of The Bachelor and The Hunger Games. I could see the reality show aspect, but only the dystopian side of the HG.
To be perfectly honest, this book was enjoyable to read, and I kept going hoping something exciting would happen. BUT, in saying that, the only character I really liked is Prince Maxon. America absolutely annoyed me the entire time, being as fickle as her feelings. The storyline was likeable yet predictable.
I'm not sure if I'll read the rest of the series, but my bets are on her choosing Prince Maxon over Aspen - there is no way this story could end any other way.

I just can't with American Singer. 😂 She's naive to the point of stupidity and makes it soooo aggravating to read from her POV. How was this series so popular?!
Hunger Games + The Bachelor! Probably a bit derivative of both but it was a fun read that I had trouble putting down. I can’t wait to read the next one.
