I finally finished The
One. I was enjoying it but it wasn’t ToO amazing. I wanted to
know who America chooses though so I read the last book as well.
Also i just found out that she's continuing the series with a fourth and maybe fifth book!
If you don’t know what it’s
about here is what GoodReads says:
For
thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity
to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of
glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in a palace and compete for the
heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon.
But for America
Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret
love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce
competition for a crown she doesn't want. Living in a palace that is constantly
threatened by violent rebel attacks.
It’s a perfect story if
you like the Bachelor and things like that. What I found annoying though was
the main character! America was irritating me by choosing both and then other
and then the other! I loved the other one and argh it frustrated me! Was it
only me? She could have done things much faster and had everything over with.
I liked the other
competitors, I liked hating some that is. And I think she executed well with
the plot and got everything to fit nicely.
This book really tied things up and made me like the series all much more. The character building was getting there and towards the end I was gasping while reading.
