Tengo que adelantar que tengo sentimientos encontrados con esta entrega. No consigo entender al príncipe y todos los hechos que tienen lugar me parecen tan cuestionables... Pero bueno al fin y al cabo tiene alma de distopia.

·Aviso de spoilers de entregas anteriores·

En esta parte, el príncipe ha reducido considerablemente el número de candidatas (6), entre las que se encuentra América y su mejor amiga. Durante toda la historia vemos como América no sabe a quien quiere si al príncipe o a Aspen. Metiéndose, así, en un campo bastante peligroso, teniendo en cuenta las leyes del país.

Celeste, una de las competidoras más crueles, no duda en ponerla en evidencia e intentar amedrantar a cualquiera de las candidatas que le supongan un peligro. Los problemas comienzan a complicarse cada vez más; teniendo en cuenta las revueltas de los rebeldes, las cuales ponen en peligro más de una vez a los sirvientes y a las aspirantes.

Tengo que confesar que desde mi punto de vista, la trama romántica de esta segunda parte ha dejado bastante que desear. Entiendo que todavía se está presentando la situación y los personajes se siguen definiendo; pero aun así... Creo que es de las primeras veces que siento aversión contra el protagonista, no me logra convencer del todo y tengo sentimientos contradictorios por él.

No obstante, la trama distópica de la historia me tiene bastante enganchada. América va descubriendo los orígenes de ese país, los cuales son cuanto menos impactantes; al igual que el hecho de que ninguno de los habitantes tengan libros de historia ¿en que país no hay libros sobre su propia historia? No digo más...

i think i last read this book in the sixth grade, when the girl i probably had a crush on was designing Selection-Style gowns for people in our class. My knowledge of my own probable-crush was non-existent, but i knew our friendship was fading (far more painfully for me than for her) and it meant the world when she sketched eight dresses designed just for me. now, eight years later, another smart and intelligent and freckled brunette has brought the series back into my life. she is more giving and loving and wonderful than i could have ever imagined. i know sixth grade me is jumping for joy right now. i hope the girl i once knew is finding her way. i love the beautiful human beside me, who sends me nauseatingly perfect quotes from this book to express their love and devotion. she is not the world. neither is this book. but they are both such wonderful examples of everything that makes the world good.



i think i’ve consumed too much “the anthropocene reviewed” content. this is not a review, this is a love letter! welp.

so bad it’s good?

Not as well written as the first. It sort of felt like a place holder. Like she just wanted to write more books. And yet, I still enjoyed it.....
