Haha! Who else is pumped for this BOTM??? I've never actually read it, and frankly I'm not a romantic in the least, but... I'm SO EXCITED TO READ THIS WITH EVERYONE!!!!


message 2: by [deleted user] (new)

I've read it, and I was kinda mad at myself for liking a romance.

I don't typically like romance either, but I've seen this around everywhere so im kinda excited!


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

How do you guys not like ROMANCE??????


message 5: by [deleted user] (new)

I mostly don't because it's hard to find clean romance.


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

Really?? I only read clean books!!!


message 7: by [deleted user] (new)

If you want another clean romance, try Just Ella. I loved that one!

Haha Denali, I'd love to know what you think of it! I remember there's one scene at the very beginning of book 1 that's bordering on inappropriate, but it's been too long for me to remember everything clearly.

Mmhm, almost, but not too inappropriate I don't think. It's about as far as I'll go. Very sweet tho!

Haha yes, I think The Selection has the best YA love triangle I've ever seen before! (And I usually hate love triangles.)

EWWWW love triangles. XD Okay but I'm suuuper pumped to see how I like this one!!!!!


message 14: by Fortissimo (new)

Fortissimo (kendra_simps) I love love triangles 'cause someone gets heartbroken!!!


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

NOOO! Heartbreak is so cheesy in books!


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

Hate love triangles BECAUSE someone gets heartbroken!!!! Lol

Hahaha I hate love triangles! I'll only like them if they're tragic!

The Selection was well-written, though, so I'm satisfied.

Jimin'sRamenNoodles (Jinlo) (ilovekpop) | 12 comments The Selection? GUYS WHAT HAPPENED TO BIAS! Someone told me we were going to read Bias and was saving it specifically for Valentine's day... I was so excited about this...

And Bias is actually 100% clean, unlike The Selection! Plus, who hasn't already seen The Selection? Like it's been popular for ages...


Jimin'sRamenNoodles (Jinlo) (ilovekpop) | 12 comments https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Look Look Look at the first comment... I don't want it to miss Valentine's day, next month would be too late.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Maybe we could do both?


message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

Is Bias clean?

It's 100% clean! There's absolutely no swearing, no mention of God's name in vain, and it's kept all appropriate. It's technically an adult book, but kids under 10 could read it. I'm pretty sure the author is Christian, since she mentioned church in there too.

Could we do The Selection next month maybe? We planned Bias early on JUST for Valentine's day. The book actually HAPPENS in Febuary! Like she GOES through Valentine's day. It's literally the BEST Feb book. :(

HHHAHAHA. I like romance when it's not overly mushy, or cheesy. I like clean romance (Francine Rivers, Karen Kingsbury etc)

We've already started The Selection, some of us have finished it. And there's a ton of polls up. There's no going back now.
