Rating: 3/5
This is the third and final book in The Selection series. You can read my review of the first one, The Selection, here, and my review of the second, The Elite, here.
As this is the third book in a trilogy, this review will contain spoilers.
Summary:
The time has come for the Prince of Illéa to choose his princess. Suddenly, America realizes Maxon may not wait for her forever. At the same time, the threats outside the castle are growing closer, and country they love so much is in grave danger...
Review:
As previously mentioned in my review of the other books in this series, these books are really enjoyable, and this is no exception. I felt like this was a satisfactory ending to the trilogy, and it was just as fun to read as the others, if not more.
This was quite an exciting read. What I've wanted from this series is to know more about the society and world they live in, and we get to see a lot more of that in this one. I really enjoyed that. I also really enjoy how America can't seem to keep her mouth shut, and it gets her in trouble, even though she's doing the right thing.
I felt like the love-triangle in this book was a non-issue. Even though it's written like America is being drawing between Aspen and Maxon, she's really not anymore. We all know who she wants and she does too.
I had a slight problem with the ending, as it felt a little rushed, and ended up tying up much too nicely. It was a little too perfect.
Overall, a good conclusion to the series. Finally read them all and can now move on to bigger and better things. I would recommend this series to anyone who wants to read a really easy, romantic trilogy with a tad of dystopian elements.
You can get this book at The Book Depository*

PS: There is going to be a fourth book too, called The Heir, and it will be published in May 2015.
