The Selection Series by Kiera Cass - Reading from 'The Selection (The Selection #1)' from August 5th 2018 Showing 101-150 of 1,195

[Jamie]

We could start on the 4th but we have to wait for Selia too. Is everyone okay with March 7? And wait, how are we supposed to read them? The Elite, The Prince and then The Guard?

[Maddie]

Well The Prince is #0.5, The Elite is #2 and The Guard is #2.5.

[Maddie]

But we need to read The Guard last because it has a teaser for The One (#3)

Oh sweet Selia! :D If everyone can get both novellas on hold, maybe we could read The Elite and then The..."

I got The Guard on hold also, but there's 25 waiting.

Hmm...Maybe. Hopefully the Prince will be off hold by then.

[Jamie]

Okay great! So March 7 it is? I now have The Guard! *high 5*

[Maddie]

@Selia: Oh haha well let's just hope that we can read The Prince and The Elite and then The Guard will be available for you to pick up. :)

@Jamie: Are we reading The Prince on March 7? Or The Elite?

[Jamie]

@Selia - Are you okay with March 7 for Elite?

[Jamie]

@Maddison - We could read The Elite first while we wait for Selia's copy of The Prince :)

[s]

Jamie wrote: "@Selia - Are you okay with March 7 for Elite?"

I'm really not sure. :/ I hope, but there's 23 holds. We can set for the 7th, though. I just might be late.;)

[Maddie]

Only if you're fine with that Selia. :) We can start it later if you like.

[Jamie]

Oh we could wait for you! :) Just let us know when you can have it.

Maddison wrote: "Only if you're fine with that Selia. :) We can start it later if you like."

Whatever is better for you guys.

[Maddie]

Yeah that's the best way to do it. Will we BR The Guard and The Prince as well after The Elite?

Jamie wrote: "Oh we could wait for you! :) Just let us know when you can have it."

I will! Hopefully soon. ;)

[Maddie]

Hopefully!

Yes of course! Tho they're short its fun to discuss them. :3

[Maddie]

Yeah that's good. :)

[Maddie]

You read any more of this one Jamie?

[Jamie]

Still on 77% (view spoiler)[I like Maxon so muchhh. And Celeste is an annoying bitch haha! The writing is okay. It's an easy read. I'll read more later. :) (hide spoiler)] How'd you like the whole book? What did you not like about it?

[Maddie]

(view spoiler)[Yes Celeste just needs to leave I'm totally over her haha. Have you had the bit with the dress yet? (hide spoiler)]

I loved the whole book. It was nice and fast-paced but with enough down-time to think about what had happened. The writing was nice and easy to read. There was nothing I didn't like about it lol.

[Jamie]

@Maddison (view spoiler)[Yes, I just read about the dress. Why would someone do that?! I wish Mer would tell Maxon so he could kick Celeste out. (hide spoiler)]

That sounds so positive! Can't wait to finish it. :)

[Maddie]

(view spoiler)[I get so annoyed when people hold bad things back! Geez, if that's me, I'd be telling everyone, including Silvia! (hide spoiler)]

Yeah it's an amazing book. Can't wait to read the others.

[Jamie]

(view spoiler)[Ikr?! But I guess they won't be kicking out Celeste yet cause the book needs a villain xD (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

As does every book haha. (view spoiler)[It just doesn't make sense what Maxon sees in her and why she's still there at all! (hide spoiler)]

[s]

(view spoiler)[She just saw the announcement. :D I think Maxon will be better than she thinks, but that's probably obvious. :P I feel bad for America and Aspen, though. (hide spoiler)]

This is like a Dystopia, kinda. I always think the MC sound younger with dystopian, so I like this trilogy better already. XD

[Jamie]

(view spoiler)[Maybe because she's flirty lol. (hide spoiler)] I'll be logging off now. Will be online again when I finish the book!

[Maddie]

@Selia: MC? And I can't believe you're still at the start! XD It's so good!

@Jamie: Well she's just annoying to me haha. I can't stand people like that. And alright! Hope you like the book! :D

XD Main character. I know, I had schoolwork and the party, though.

[Maddie]

Yeah I like it how America's relatable.
Oh right. So you're going to read more now? If you like, we could do some reading sprints. :D

[Jamie]

@Maddison - I know I said I'm going offline now and right when I was being comfy and I just started to read Chapter 19 (view spoiler)[ MAXON KISSED SOMEONE ELSE?!?! But whyyyyyyyyyyy (hide spoiler)]

So yea I just had to rant about that

I'm reading now. :D I'll get of GR and just read, huh? Then I won't have distractions. ;)

[s]

Off*

[Maddie]

@Jamie: Yeah I know!!!! I mean, why would he do that?!

Alright Selia haha. Hope you enjoy it!

[Jamie]

I have to know more about this!!! Haha going offline again! :D Seeya

[Maddie]

Alright Jamie haha. Post back your thoughts later! :D

[Maddie]

@Jamie: (view spoiler)[I totally think America's doing well by thinking what Maxon's thinking. I mean, you'd have to be mental to be fine with it! (hide spoiler)]

[s]

Thanks, I hope so too. :D See you, Jamie, Maddison! Be back later!

[Maddie]

Bye Selia! I'll probably be asleep when you get back.

[Jamie]

Finished it and Sarah's right! I need to read the second book!

My thoughts:
(view spoiler)[ Not so much of a dystopian but I like it cause I dig every bit of romance in it. I just don't understand how someone can love two guys at the same time. This baffles me every time. I guess I have got to experience that first lol. Overall, the book was fun to read! I love it and can't wait to read the next books. (hide spoiler)]

[Winnie]

Are you guys reading The Elite on March 7? I'll join in then.

[Jamie]

That's awesome! But we'll have to wait for Selia to have a copy first Winnie.

[s]

50% This is really good!! So interesting and keeps me wanting more. ;) (view spoiler)[So...I think Maxon and America will develop feeling for each other, maybe. Or Mer will, at least. I kinda liked Ashley, though. :/ Wish there was more of her. I like how the raids are added to the story for more exciting, mysterious storyline and scenes, not just girls and a prince and a so-to-be princess. (hide spoiler)] I really like the maids too. They have personality. C:

[Maddie]

@Jamie: Yeah me too can't wait to read the second!

@Winnie: Here's the thread for The Elite. :) https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

@Selia: Yeah I also like how America is nice to her maids. It reminds me of Mary Queen of Scots. :)

:D Yeah.

[Maddie]

@Selia: Still 50%?

[s]

Maddison wrote: "@Selia: Still 50%?"

Yes. I'll be reading now, though. XD Just finished my schoolwork for the day. ;)

[Maddie]

Awesome Selia! :D Any progress on The Elite?

[s]

Maddison wrote: "Awesome Selia! :D Any progress on The Elite?"

:) Hmm...Went from 23 to 22! Better than nothing, haha.

[s]

80% (view spoiler)[Ohmigosh plot twist!! :O I wasn't expecting Aspen to show up. -_- I like Maxon better than Aspen, personally. ;) Oh boy, poor America... What do you guys think of Aspen showing up? Is it too unrealistic, or just what this story needs: some drama? (hide spoiler)]

So...I wanna get back to reading, cuz as you noticed, I kinda jumped from 50 to 80% because I didn't wanna stop reading...XD This is much better than I thought, and it's unpredictable. :)
