For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in a palace and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon.
But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn't want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks.
Then America meets Prince Maxon. Gradually, she starts to question all the plans she's made for herself--and realizes that the life she's always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined.

This book and author got a lot of hate, not really sure what that's about. No prejudices against this book because I have no idea what theses
issues were.
It's not great, but it's not horrible. I don't especially care for the main character, she seems a little all over the place to me.
What I did hate was the ending! The fact that there really was no ending. Ugh, I hate that! And honestly I don't know if I'll continue with this series.
