Do not be detoured by this being in the Young Adult Section! beautifully written, touching story of a woman/girl forced to make decisions. Cass gives a view of a post apocalyptic America where the future king must marry. Part "Bachelor"…

Sci fi / dystopian future is one of my favourite genres but I could hardly get through this book. It's like the author wanted to write a historical romance but didn't know how to construct a narrative without including modern technology. I…

I don't usually like romance as the main part of the story, but this was a game changer. Just enough dystopian that I loved it. My absolute favorite romance book.

This book was amazing! It's like the Hunger Games combined with Princess Academy! I usually don't like romances that much, but this one was really well written and had just the right amount of dystopian in it. I am so excited to read the…

I absolutely loved this book. Could not put it down. The characters are compelling, the plot is interesting, and the romance is adorable. Overall a great book, definitely a page turner. The only reason it’s not five stars is because it…

this was very interesting and had me hooked from the first page. it was a bit boring sometimes, though, which was why it is only 4 stars.

Multiple recs! "The reviews are right in calling this book (and the rest of the series) a cross between The Hunger Games and The Bachelor. This is an entertaining fast read for a variety of ages." - Asia B. "This book is phenomenal and…

I was in the mood for something lighter and this was a perfect YA dystopian romance. It was predictable (although there was twist I didn't see coming), but also very fun and the romance was great. It's nothing mind-blowing, but it's…

This is one of my favorite books of all time. I have always been a fan of dystopian novels, but this one truly takes the cake. America Singer, a sixteen year old girl, is chosen to compete alongside 34 other girls to marry Maxon, the…

The Selection by Keira Cass is a beautifully written novel, which is kind of like the spin-off version of “The Bachelor”. The novel is set in a somewhat dystopian society, where there is a strict caste system implemented to determine one’s…

The Selection takes place in dystopian America with (surprise, surprise) a main character with the same name as the hated country, America. When I first read this series, I thought it was the most beautiful, romantic story ever. Now, while…
