The Selection series

[raven]

Is the selection series worth the read? I'm currently reading the cruel prince and idk what to read next

[Violet]

I liked the selection series but it’s definitely the kind of book you shouldn’t take to seriously. Also I wouldn’t recommend the heir or the crown

[alysh]

i've only read the first one, but like what violet said you shouldn't take it seriously. i'd say its a good book for 9-12 year olds.

I read it in about a week and a half. It helped me get out of reading slump. They are very easy to read. Other than that, all I can say is that I didn't like the last two books very much and my favourite was the third. If you liked The Cruel Prince I recommend This Woven Kingdom. I read it a few days ago and it was one of the best books I've read in a while.

I’ve read the first three cuz the last three follow different characters and it was cute but serious and I loved it. I definitely don’t count it as a middle grade tho

[samantha]

it's definitely cheesy. i loved it in middle school, but now i just think the drama's funny. kind of a fun quick read

[Macee]

read it it's cute but like they said, cheesy. It's an easy and quick read in my opinion. If you like fantasy and the bachelor, you'll love the selection.

[raven]

thank you all!! is it a love triangle tho? if it is, I'll have to drop it lol

[Macee]

yes.. but its a GOOD love triangle. I might be biased because I like love triangles.

[ny_the_bookworm]

i like it, it’s definitely a nice and light read

I found the book a bit meh. I'd recommend it if you were in a reading slump or just want a quick binge read.

I think the author was involved in a scandal about fabrication goodreads reviews and that she and her editor and her shit talked some reviewers who left bad ratings

[blossom ⚛︎]

I'm also currently rereading it because I have a matching annotation kit which I want to use

[raven]

okay lol looks like I have to drop it. what about Throne of Glass series? is it really good

[nadia]

if you live for drama, yes. you'll eat it up. but it's a fun read and def a guilty pleasure for me.

[Teo-(school hiatus)]

Throne of glass was the first Sarah J. Maas book I've read and so far is my favourite series ever. It may take you a while to finish it, but the action is complex and well developed, full of plot twists . At first I thought it has to be overhyped, like how can a book be that good. However, after the third book I bought the rest of them and read nothing else until I finished the series.

[Makenna]

I’ve read the whole selection series including the sequels and the four novellas and I definitely liked them. I do think that you need to go into it knowing that at times it goes deep into the politics so that might be a bit boring if you do not enjoy politics. But it is like eating a cupcake. A super easy read, and I LOVE MAXON.

[Makenna]

Also, these are my ratings off all of the books in the series: The Selection - 3⭐️’s The Elite - 3⭐️’s The One - 4⭐️’s The heir - 3⭐️’s The Crown - 4⭐️’s Happily Ever After (the four novellas in one 400 page book) - 5⭐️’s

If you want to hear more on why I rated those what I rated them just let me know but no pressure ☺️

[caitlyn]

the selection series is amazing🤩 it is more for middle schoolers, but it’s my comfort series. but I do not recommend reading the heir or the crown.

[Ani]

YES, America gives off a little bit of pick me which is sort of annoying but the romance is so cute!
