The Elite

About the book: The Selection began with thirty-five girls.
Now with the group narrowed down to the six Elite, the competition to win Prince Maxon's heart is fiercer than ever—and America is still struggling to decide where her heart truly lies. Is it with Maxon, who could make her life a fairy tale? Or with her first love, Aspen?

 America is desperate for more time. But the rest of the Elite know exactly what they want—and America's chance to choose is about to slip away.

 My review: I've kind of been a bit late for the party on this series, but the good thing about that is that I haven't had to wait for it to be written! I enjoyed reading this book. I like America, but I felt like she did some really dumb things in this book, if she cares so much for Maxon, she really needs to let Aspen know. The way she deals with that situation makes her look so selfish. There are some girls in this book that are a bit crazy and that I really don't like. But to me that shows just how well developed Kiera Cass' characters are. The plot of this one is good, and it's basically clean, there might be a mild swear word here or there. Just want to know who Maxon chose!

 I was able to borrow this book from my local library.
