Book two picks up after the events of the first in the series. America has a firm foothold in Maxon's affections, but she can't bring herself to trust her feelings for him/feelings about the caste system and her indecision is the focus of most of the novel.
On the surface we have the superficial Selection-like Blind Date gone horribly wrong we see the girls who are left put through a series of tasks to prove their worthiness. Lest we forget, we're reminded regularly that though Maxon gets to choose, there are other forces coming into play that he has less control over.
The book was fairly well-paced and we get some further understanding of just what Maxon is put through as part of his role. This, however, seemed a bit cobbled on to explain why he didn't stand up to people more.
The threat from the Rebels is closer, and there's certainly more to this than we've been told so far. What annoyed me here though was America herself. She's reckless, headstrong and so flamin' indecisive I was really irritated by her. I can see why she's appealing to some of the characters in the novel, but I hope the anger she was feeling at the end of the book forces her to act with some sense of decisiveness in book three.
