I'm giving this one a 4.5 out of 5. And I've given the other three books solid 4s. Oh my god. After hearing so many awful things I was not expecting what I just read.

Eadlyn is no America. She is no Maxon and she is no Celeste or Marlee or Kriss. She is simply Eadlyn and she owned this book. There were moments where yes, she seemed to be ungrateful if not a bit demanding and honestly was selfish and pushy.

But throughout the story she was consistent. Until she wasn't. And I am refusing to ruin it for you, my dear reader, but I've never been moved to tears by any of the Selection books and the ending of this one had me choked up.

Eadlyn grew so much as a Princess soon to be Queen in the 300 pages of this book. And she didn't have to, but she learned that she was missing out if she didn't.

I am very grateful to have read this and I really really enjoyed it. I cannot wait for the final (or supposed to be final) book of The Selection series.
