I loved it!!
 
I hate Kiera Cass for killing America’s father, the Queen, Anne, I never thought in the beginning of the series that I would be upset that Celeste got killed but I am because in the end, I kind of liked her. 

I cried during the whole epilogue but the books was so good and I didn’t want it to end😭😭 Just when I had stopped crying I starter’s crying again over something. I cried when everyone but Celeste were there, but the thing that made me cry the most was when Aspen was escorting her to the alter😭😭

I still love the characters, I did get very angry at both Maxon and America several times because both of them has such a temperament, especially in the end were Maxon was really really cold to America just because she had talked with Aspen (maybe a little bit more intimate that normal but not so much that Maxon should not marry America) and then three seconds later when he was about to die and all of that he told her he couldn’t live without her and that he loved her. But I know, moodswings.


I was never worried “for real” because the book is about America and Maxon so it is obvious that they will end up together<3

The first book was great; the second felt like filler, but the third was my favourite! 

This was a great end to the trilogy of America and Maxon’s story - it had the good, bad and the ugly. Including hilarious and heart warming/wrenching moments. 

I was really impressed with the series overall, and pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. 

Content warning: some more intense kissing scenes, but that was the extent of it

Jag fortsätter att förvånas av att the Selection är så bra. Jag trodde inte det här när jag började läsa. 

I den tredje och sista delen i the Selection serien med America som huvudperson. Det finns två till böcker med en annan huvudperson. 

Urvalet är snart över och America är kvar. Kan kronan och Maxon bli hennes? Vill hon det, kan hon det? Ja och America ska ge allt för ett sista försök att vinna. Samtidigt som urvalet pågår är rebellerna aktiva och attackerna blir värre. Men vad gör man om man tycker de har rätt? Kan hon kanske förändra världen som prinsessa? 

I den utvalda får man veta vem som Maxon väljer, frågan är bara om det är America eller någon av de andra tjejerna? 

Detta är en fantasy och dystopisk bok. Den fokuserar på kärlek, vänskap och intriger samtidigt som de befinner sig i en värld som är allt annat än perfekt. Skulle rekommendera boken till unga tjejer (och andra) som är 12+.
