I wonder if there will be some crazy plot turn. Like Kriss is actually a major B and Celeste is someone great. Highly unlikely but possible. (Hope not anyways) Good Point though, about America not being able to complain b/c she's been sneaking around with Aspen. Guess now she knows how it feels. But I don't think she would have realized her feelings for Maxon if she hadn't been so jealous. At least that's what I took from the book.
even if celeste did supposedly turn around, im not sure id ever like or trust her again

I think death's a little too harsh..... -_-
The elite was nowhere near as good as the selection in my opinion. It was okay, but I was kind of disappointed with both Aspen and Maxon. Maxon, with his whole Celeste thing, totally bummed me out. His whole I-just-wanted-to-feel-loved didn't sit well with me. If he really loves America, you'd think he'd only want to be loved by her. Right? I mean, if I were America, I'd be totally crushed as well. And also with Kriss, I'm just soo confused. I mean, yes, I guess it makes sense that Maxon should be prepping in case America decides she doesn't want him. But I just feel like if he's gonna love America and want her to be his wife, he needs to actually go for her, and ONLY HER!!!! Kinda leads back to the Celeste situation. He made some serious booboos in this book. And Aspen. I appreciate his concern for America (I guess), but I can't stand how he pushes down Maxon every chance he gets, and that when Maxon leaves for a while with his father, Aspen assumes that means America will go for him. I mean, seriously??? talk about pride. I don't know. Still Team Maxon, but I'm hoping book3 turns out differently then book2.

Which will probably be Maxon... :(

Oh, Maxon. I just can't change my mind. I will always be on his side.

I feel the exact same thing. I thought she was leading towards Aspen. But it feels like it would be a waste if she just went back to Carolina.

If Maxon ends up with Celeste I may either scream so the world can hear it or go to Illea and personally brake up Maxon and Celeste. If Illea existed, that is.

I don't really care, Celeste is just an all around unpleasant person. There are no redeeming qualities about her whatsoever and I don't know any fan of the series that would care if she died.
Yeah, I think that Kiera wouldn't put us through the eternal suffering of Celeste becoming the princess.

I am going into seventh grade, and I guess you could consider me young. I agree- I think we should share opinions but not to the point where it crushes someone else's. I'm OK with persuasion but disagreement leaves me a little edgy. I know it's REALITY, but can't we all get along?
Not that I want you to have this opinion but I think I am still for Team Maxon.

Yeah, I agree that Celeste should get punished like Marlee did, but I don't think she deserves death, and also, I think Kriss does even more so....I mean, Kriss is actually NICE....

Apparently not. (At least, for the getting along part.)
Still for ASPEN even if I'm one of the only ones!

I probably shouldn't hate Kriss as much as I do but I can't help it. Something about her is so slap worthy lol.
I don't know why I hate Kriss, either. She seems to be so perfect. Maybe too perfect for Illea and Maxon, though...

Oh...that's a cool idea, going of that. Instead Ilea hating her and ruining her, what if it started a controversy. Like lower castes would start acting out and side with America but Higher caste would agree with Celeste and it starts a little fight within Ilea?

You're a genius,I'm going to be so disappointed if that doesn't actually happen in The One now!!!!!!
Did you guys hear about this? :) https://twitter.com/kieracass/status/... it'll help us see things from Aspen's point of view, though I'm Team Maxon all the way :)
Paula the Koala❤ wrote: "Did you guys hear about this? :) https://twitter.com/kieracass/status/... it'll help us see things from Aspen's point of view, though I'm Team Maxon all the way :)"This sounds interesting, I kind of hope we see another love interest for Aspen in it.
America seems to be somewhat of an unreliable narrator. I'm team Maxon, but somewhat reluctantly, because to be honest, neither seem to have ever entirely stood by America. Maxon is toying with her and Kriss is really annoying, and I have a pretty bad feeling that something will happen, and that Aspen and America's relationship will be forever messed up.
Elizabeth wrote: "What if Kriss is apart of the rebels now wouldn't that be shocking"That certainly would be shocking! Maybe that was why she was keeping herself so perfect- so that people would not think she was a rebel. What if Maxon AND Kriss are rebels? I doubt it, but that would be a bit of a ridiculous situation, and as you said Elizabeth, it would be quite shocking.
Therealbadkitty wrote: "Elizabeth wrote: "What if Kriss is apart of the rebels now wouldn't that be shocking"I know and I would love it."
I think I might love it, too, because it could give America a chance with the crown and Maxon's love...

I also agree... that would be SUCH a cool idea for a part in the book, Stephanie! Kriss would probably be forgotten... but I have a question for you all:
What if Stephanie's scenario did happen? Which side do you think Kriss would pick if she didn't refuse to pick or if she wouldn't be forgotten?

A true love story! SUCH a cool scenario! Maxon and Aspen would flee to where she was about to be sentenced for treason and Maxon would stop it and then kiss her in front of everybody... wonderful scenario!

I'm want to lean towards the obvious she would go for Ilea, cause well she is a fan favorite in America, and might get extra good treatment for that. She could also become a symbol on why America is a bad example for the rebellion. But....she has a weird friendship with America...so maybe America might influence her to join the rebellion, and in using Kris's connections they could be the dream team against the Ilea, but I'm kind of leaning towards the first one

I think after that fight Maxon might withdraw a little bit and America would get made at Aspen if you were to fond out about it. Then America would have to comfort Maxon . But I don't think Maxon would fire Aspen. And after America comforts Maxon, Maxon tries harder.
Elizabeth wrote: "Stephanie wrote: "Brittany wrote: "Stephanie wrote: "Elizabeth wrote: "Brittany wrote: "Angela wrote: "Sydney wrote: "Still for Maxon. It looks like she w him anyways. But Celeste!!! And Maxon? WH..."
Yes, I completely agree.

Hmmm... Even though we are sort of in America's head 24/7 . In her free time America might day dream about the rebels that stole those books and didn't call her put when she was in the tree.
Then one day the girl comes back, proposes an idea to her America thinks about, something bad happens that the king causes and that pushes America over the edge to join the rebels?
And what is up with trilogies? What can't they keep going? It doesn't have to be 15 like Morganville vampires, but 5 would be nice. Every one has jumped on the trilogy train.

Oh my goodness, th house of night novels, I keep reading them but it just, omg why do I read them. Yes they so need to stop. But if you look at warriors, their books are good, all gazillion of them. But they have multiple authors so yah. I kind of wish this would go for maybe a 4 book seires
I don't know maybe its the authors. I know a story can be wrapped up with a few books. It's really about the author knowing when the characters story are done. I absolutely hate it when there is no choice made between love triangles and things are left open to reader... I don't know interpretation. I mean you wrote the book tell us who ends up together. I know I'll be mad if it ends like the Dellerium series or strange angels. Oh and what about when an author of a truly epic series writes another one and it sucks bc it could live up to it. I also think its silly when they end a series like the mortal Instruments and then go back and add more. (Not saying the books were bad) ok I'm just ranting...

And delirium....way too abprut, yah I didn't like the end to that.
Also I think this idea is quite different and the seires is well publicized so I think it might have been a better to go a little further then a trilogy cause there is a lot of stuff that can be milked
I actually enjoyed the Ellite. Maybe it's because I knew what was going to happen before I read it. And the fact I read it at work in the span of 5 or 6 hours. Well I'm off to finish The Eternity Cure!

Once I realize how was going to finish I couldn't even bring myself to read past Pandemonium, only to realize there was no good conclusion. I used talk to type so if I have any mistakes excuse them.
Elizabeth wrote: "And I thought it was suppose to end on book six so I didn't no abt that either......"She told me this years ago. So maybe it will now end at six. I won't read it until after the movie because it looks good. Don't want to ruin it like beautiful creatures. But I digress this is about the Elite.
Angela wrote: "And what is up with trilogies? What can't they keep going? It doesn't have to be 15 like Morganville vampires, but 5 would be nice.

I know! I thought the trailer for Beautiful Creatures looked kinda good, so I decided to read the book and ten go see the movie! But I was SOOO disappointed in bothe the book and movie. I felt the book was boring for like 67% and the movie just...SUCKED. I mean, yes the Genvieve flashback at the movie theater was cool....but overall I did NOT like it.

Really? I thought trailer for the movie was icky! It was way to dramatic, not the right look, and too cheesy?

Oh, that's interesting, but inside of me it's telling you to read the books, cause to me they're super good. But for the trailer of mortal instruments actually looks like it won't ruin the books so whatever do is fine. But something's might be off you don't notice but, I can't wait for the movie
