I enjoyed the first three Selection books, so I had to read this one too! This book follows America's daughter as she starts a Selection of her own. However, Eadlyn is not thrilled about selecting a husband, and is just doing the Selection to help calm the country.

I have to say, I disliked Eadlyn quite a bit at the start of this book. She was a manipulative, bratty character. However she started to have more likable moments, and by the end of the book I could see a glimpse of the character development (and improvement) that will probably come in the next book. Also, unlike America's story, I have no clue who she will end up with! I am excited to read the final book!

Eadlyn is sooo annoying. I can't stand her. At all. I don't think I'm going to finish the series because of her. As if America isn't whiny enough in her books. Like mother, like daughter, right?

A strong woman leader who isn't good at math. How much more stereotypical can you get Cass?

Still loved it though. Although it wasn't as cheesy as the first three, it was pretty good. I am annoyed that Cass hinted WAYYYYY to much to whom she is going to choose. Makes me almost not want to read the next one - but of course I am already committed to the series.

This was definitely not as good as the original trilogy The Selection.

I found the main character Eadlyn to be annoying, bratty and bossy. But as the story went along she changed and started to realise how to be nice i guess.

The main boys in this selection (majority actually lol) are ever so kind and i currently love Henri, Erik and Kile.

Overall i don't really recommenced , just read the original selection books !!

I must admit I didn’t like this book as much as I like the previous ones.
America forcing eadalyn into the selection doesn’t seem realistic, and while I like her character, I don’t find her character as intriguing.
