A Goodreads user asked this question about The Elite (The Selection, #2):
Who do you like better? Aspen or Maxon? I personally like Maxon a lot better.

Aspen literally broke her heart and came crawling back to America expecting her to take him back. Not to mention he risked her life multiple times just because he wanted to hook up. He is unreliable and selfish and completely sexist. He literally broke up with her because "HE should be providing for HER because HE is the man" like what???? Maxon is kind and trustworthy. He is always trying to make America happy and those of you not liking him because he kissed other girls here's a dose of common sense. That is exactly what the selection is! He has to do it and he literally promised his loyalty to America. He may live in luxury, but his life is hard, not only because of his endless responsibilities, but constantly having to please the public. Ending the selection so quickly would cause up rise so he has to give the other girls a shot. Maxon is also so forgiving. America screamed at him after he tried to help her and physically assaulted him later because of false assumptions and Maxon still forgave her and was willing to give her another chance. I'm not saying he is perfect but he is a heck of a lot better than Aspen. (less)
