The Selection
by Kiera Cass
Oh god. Another dystopian future esc novel. And what better way to put it in Sci-fi and call it a ‘sci-fi, dystopian future esc novel’ and it actually be a fantasy novel! Woah! Yeah!
The selection was horrendous. I’m sorry it just was. I DNF’ed on at least page 100 maybe even 90. The book was just awful.
America Singer is so fucking annoying. America is more annoying than Mare Barrow (go read my red queen review) and that’s saying a fucking lot.
America is childish, petty, whiny, boring, and plain god damn boring! I have never read a character that annoys me so fucking much.
And what the fuck are these names? Like seriously?! America, Aspen, Maxon, really?! Who the actual fuck thought of these names?
The world building in this book is god right AWFUL. Their are so many plot holes, not enough descriptions and depth, and it was almost confusing at times. Actually scratch that, IT WAS CONFUSING ALL THE TIME. I was so confused on where everyone lived, and did, and all that bullshit. I tried backtracking at least 3 times before I didn’t give a shit anymore.
And America is such a weak ‘heroine.’ Jesus she’s wining about Aspen ‘breaking’ her heart. The bitch needs to grow up and grow a god damn backbone. If a guy breaks up with you, the world doesn’t fucking end just because a guy broke up with you. All the female main characters drive me INSANE when they do that. It’s almost like the author describes the boyfriend as ‘their whole entire fucking life’ (*cough* *cough* Twilight, *no shade*). It’s annoying.
I couldn’t get through this book and I am sorry. I bought ‘The Elite’ as well, but their is literal no way in HELL that I will ever pick up another Keira Cass (that’s how you spell her last name right?!) book. I’m sorry. I tried really hard, but this was a hard core DNF for me and I will never pick this book up again.
