I didn't want to like this book. And there were some things that made me go "SAY WHAT?!" But I did enjoy it. It was a fun read marred by some bad ideas. And so I'll explain my feels as Good Ideas and Bad Ideas.

I know y'all remember Animaniacs!

GOOD IDEA

Despite her stupid name, I liked America. She was an individual and she wasn't going to let anyone change that. Well, except perhaps Aspen, but we'll get to that in a minute. Not afraid to yell at a prince and stand up to a rival. I appreciate that.

And also, as my daughter has read this, glad to have completed this to keep up with her and have a dialog about it.

First, I liked this book so much more than I expected to. I read it as my "takes place in the future book", knowing I dislike that genre. But I found myself getting wrapped up in the story. The main character was very likable. But I did NOT like that the book just abruptly ended and I now HAVE to read the next one to find out what happens!

This book was much more than I expected. After reading the summary I thought it would be a silly book to read, but it was not. The main character, American Singer, is so much more than just a girl that is part of the Selection (that helps the prince decide who he will marry). She is strong willed, opinionated, thoughtful and smart. She never wanted to put her name into the Selection but her betrothed convinced her it would be a good idea. Now as a Selected girl she has to face what she wants fro ...more
