Note: This review is spoiler free (spoilers are all marked and have warnings)! Book: The Selection series Author: Kiera Cass Genre: Dystopian Age: For readers 13 and up Rating: 5/5 I hate all books that are solely focused on romance… butttttttt the Selection series is the only exception. 🥰 I don’t care how cringy this series is, I will never stop loving it lol. IT”S JUST SO FUN TO READ OK?! I know I’ve trashed on a lot of books throughout my blog that honestly are no worse than the Selection series in terms of cringiness, but YOU KNOW WHAT? I still love this series. 😌 It’s fine. I’m a hypocrite. I admit it. 😖 Actually, that’s funny for me to say because in two paragraphs I’m going to rant about how much of a hypocrite America is…. Oh whale 🐳 it takes one to know one I guess! 🤷♀️ Anyways, is it really a Bookconfessionssecrets’ book review if I don’t rant about a book?? So even if I love this series, I’m going to rant about it. Here we go: What I disliked about this series:
Eikko: Hello your Majesty. How are you feeling today? Eadlyn: Not that great. The Selection is so stressful. Eikko: I understand. I can’t imagine that amount of stress you’re feeling… Eadlyn: Yah… HOW DRY OF A CONVO IS THAT??? How did those two even fall for each other when almost all of their conversations were like this?! 💀 4. Queen Amberly: Why is Queen Amberly praised so much? She doesn’t seem confident nor poised. Instead, she seems cowardly and demure with no spine or self respect. She doesn’t really do much anyways. We just see glimpses of her in the Women’s room or in the dining hall. But every time she appears, everyone praises her queenly behavior. What queenly behavior? For what?? Eating dinner? What I was confused about:
What I loved:
If you haven’t read this series yet, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! Drop whatever you’re reading and go read the Selection series NOW. Sure, it has it’s cringy moments but the addicting storyline more than makes up for it.
