The One

Stupid book cover with stupid lady in a stupid dress


As you can probably tell, I don't like the booko covers. But there is literally nothing I can do but insult them... well I can ignore them as well but what fun is that?
So, last book in The Selection trilogy, (The Heir doesn't count) and I sobbed a lot as I usually do.
And this time- it was just as awesome.





Ok, so all the words you got from me about the other two books were very few. Mostly me just fangirling over the book's most obvious elements. Like who was giong to end up with who.

And it may be bad that I liked this series so much, as it really wasn't as complicated nor fully detailed as the ones I tend to read where the whole new world is beyond beleif with details and a complicated history and stuff- but I enjoyed these novels immensely and I am not ashamed nor am I embarrased.

They were fun and heartbreaking and for a girl who doesn't like (and by that I mean runs away screaming profanities everytime it even attempts to approach) romance- well this was quite passable.

The One, was my favorite out of them all and I think it was because we got a bit more action in it. And I finally got to understand what the hell was happening with the rebels- the Northerners I mean, because I was so frsutratingly curious as to what they hell they were up to. And I finally got most of my questions answered.

Now, what I wanted to say is how much I lamented Celeste's sudden death. It just erally got to me- I gasped loudly, coompletely horrified that I'd lost a friend so quickly. And I was in a bad state to start off because of what had happened with Prince (at the time) Maxon. How he had broken up with us and was moments from marrying someone else (Kriss). And so my already broken heart, broke a million more pieces as our kingdom was attacked savagely by Southern rebels.

And the part where I literally broke down, was when Maxon orders Aspen to take America to safety and says,

"Be happy."

Because that would be your last wish to the person you'd truly lve. And you would say those words, when you knew you would not be there to make sure yourself they come true.

So- it broke me.

But thankfully, my OTP survived and I could breathe again.

So, all in all, it was a fantastic read. Very easy as well- didn't have much trouble zipping through them as fast as I could.
