The Selection - February 2021 BOTM

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

Yayy I didn’t know it’ll be our BOTM, I’m currently reading it and I’m halfway through it.

[Era ➴, Bookish Obsessed]

I liked this one but I honestly have no reason to. It's a skim read for me.

[Lilly S]

I feel like this one is way overhyped, but it's fine

[sterre (taylor's version)]

I only loved Maxon and America's sister...

[sterre (taylor's version)]

bruh I can't even remember what I rated it

I’m going to read the selection as soon as as I finish 5 books I need to read!

[Gabriela]

Starting this today!

[Willow Anne]

So..... i just reread the entire book in a few hours straight while completely disregarding all the work i was supposed to do today.🤦😳Whoops!😂

[Willow Anne]

And here's my brief review I just wrote

I guess i wasnt supposed to read the february botm in one day, but it couldnt be helped! lol😂

[From Heaven With Love]

OK so I loOooOoooooed the Selection and I still need to get to the lats couple ☺️

[Lacey, Bookish Human]

I originally rated this five stars. I know that it’s very tropey and stereotypical but I loved it because it was so entertaining.

[Addy C]

I read this back in November and I loved Maxon but I totally thought that America was super annoying.

[brinley]

WOW. I just finished “The One” two days ago for the first time!! I LOVED this series so much but I’ve heard really bad things about the last two. I read the first 4 chapters in the 4th book and I didn’t think I would like it so I’m not going to ruin this series for myself! Also, I had a cool idea...for anyone who likes to “shift” that would be a cool place to go!!

Yes. It is a sign that you must read it😂

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

I finished the Selection yesterday and now I’m beginning the Elite. I loooveed this book and am so exited for the next one!! Ksxofmnrosowf

[Yuna]

The Selection is my comfort read. It's so entertaining, even though it's not really high-quality reading.

[manni]

I remember reading the last three books of this series in a single sitting for like 12 hours- lots of fun :)

Same lol

[Abigail]

It's definitely interesting, wasn't a life changer or anything but still pretty good.

[Tisha]

I love this book have read all of them

[Shawna]

I really enjoyed this book. I thought it was cute. I still need to read the rest of the series.

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

I’m currently on The One and I love those books so much!! And Kiera Kass really knows how to play with your nerves...

[Maia]

I rated it five stars! I really liked the first one!

Although with some of the characters that I start to like, they do something that just makes me so exasperated and I go back to disliking them. Then it repeats to I start liking them again...aaaah


Anyways, it was a great book!

I know exactly what you mean! And especially in the 2nd book, The Elite, oh my goodness some people in there just...argh!

Same. The first one was really good and I get what you mean with the characters.

America was great in the first book but the constant Maxon-or-Aspen thing in the second book was grating.

I'm reading the second book right now and the back and forth between the two guys is starting to irritate me. She needs to just choose Maxon already

[Hannah]

I read this series a few years ago, and loved it! I would beg my mom to drive me to the library to go get the next one. I encouraged a friend of mine last year to read this, and she fell in love with it. We would run to the school library in between classes to pick up the next book for her. Another friend of mine read It as well and we would spend so long talking about who’s better Maxon or Aspen. I truly LOVED the selection series.

[ꪑꪖᦔꫀꪶ꠸ꪀꫀ]

This books was INCREDIBLE

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

Yes. Yes it was.

[Brooke]

Yeah when he said that I was just like stunned LIKE URHMM MS.KIERA CASS YOU REALLY KNOW HOW TO MAKE CHARACTERS EASILY HATED!!!!!! The time in which the books takes place doesn't seem that far off from ours right now so idek what this mans is saying smh

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

YES I HATED ASPEN WITH MY WHOLE HEART which is strange bc he wasn’t even a villain or smth BUUT in the end of The One I actually didn’t hated him that much, I was just like “meh, do whatever u want, if u want marry someone else or if u prefer to die, fine, I won’t cry”.

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

And despite how much I loooveeed Maxon and America, THEY WERE PLAYING ON MY NERVES AND WERE MAKING ME CRAZY ALL. THE. TIME. They’re cute but also they’re both idiots.

[Brooke]

Perfect evaluation Elsie.

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

Oh oh just wait to see what’s it like in the other books. They’re making a stupid thing after a stupid thing like a roller coaster. Kiera Cass really knows how to make u mad.

[Elisabeth aka Elsie(Taylor's version)]

And play with your emotions.

My review- https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I kind of liked this book, but it wasn’t that great from a critical point of view. I was able to fly through it, it was a fun read. (and I read it after crooked Kingdom so it was quite lighthearted in comparison)

[Valeria]

I looove the Selection, I read it a while ago and it really is a comfort book, I reread the series every time I’m in a slump, they are so quick they always cure it
