The One - June BOTM Discussion

Discuss the book here!

The question to think about is:

Do you think America made the right choice? Explain with reference to the book.

Feel free to extend the discussion beyond the questions and simply talk about the book as well :D

YES!!!

(view spoiler)[Aspen had the chance. He chose to push her away. And he proved to be a tad inconsiderate towards her when he chose to try and continue their relationship inside the castle walls. Maxon was just adorable and sweet and eeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!! I mean yeah. Towards the end, I warmed up to Aspen but Maxon was just *squeals* (hide spoiler)]

Very true. (view spoiler)[I feel like, although she could have ended up with either guy, Aspen was the more inconsistent of the two. Maxon's stance on their relationship never truly wavered, whereas Aspen was very hot and cold throughout the series. Plus, Maxon is adorable! (hide spoiler)]

*agrees*

(view spoiler)[I loved the ending though. Like usually love triangle endings always divide fans but I feel like there are aspects of this ending that will appeal to both Maxon and Aspen lovers.

I especially loved Maxon's love letters. (hide spoiler)]

Supposedly they're writing two more Selection books after this? O.o

I have no idea what she could possibly write about after all that! But, perhaps it's about (view spoiler)[America and Maxon's life after The One or about their kid? It's called The Heir after all... (hide spoiler)]

I loved the ending:) She definitely made the right choice!

Then why not just start a spin-off series instead of continuing onto that series? But tbh, I don't see how you keep moving the series without it becoming repetitive... :/ (hide spoiler)]

My fave bit:
(view spoiler)[“I was wondering,” he began, murmuring the words into my cheek as I rolled over. “Seeing as it’s my birthday, do you think we could get away with spending the entire day in bed?”

I smiled and forced my sleepy eyes open. “And who will run the country?”

“No one. Let it fall to pieces. So long as I have my America in my arms." (hide spoiler)] *fangirling*
