After winning the heart of Maxon Schraeve, America's life was perfect. Twenty years later, her daughter undergoes a similar process. 35 suitors, one princess. Who will be The Heir?
See my review of The Selection. Everything I said there holds for this book as well. Though I do need to add that I liked the protagonist of this book a little better. She was a strong female protagonist, and I liked that she made it clear that she did not need a man. Another fun read.
Back to the world of the Selection. Flash-forward 20 years, with America and Maxon still going strong.
I thought it was an interesting twist on the traditional 'boy chooses girl' version of The Bachelor. Now we get The Bachelorette! Unfortunately, Eadlyn was a brat, and started the book as fairly unlikeable. But she was somewhat redeemed by the end, which is a cliffhanger, by the way, so be prepared for a book 5.
Not super great, but I'm going to give it 3 stars because I didn't hate Eadlyn by the end.
Awwww! I didn't know how much I missed the selection series until I started to read this book. The selection is a terrible thing (who enters really for the person? They all want the crown!) HOWEVER I'm totally in love with this series!
It is so cute! Easy to read! And once started you cannot stop. So many funny moments! And so many sweet ones!
Actually this book takes place 20 years after the last one in the series. So if you haven't read the first books, it's no problem. Of course you will have a few spoilers but it's not necessary to know the background.
I like Eadlyn! She's a strong, self confident person who will soon be queen and is perfectly prepared. Since she's living in the palace her whole life, she's also spoiled which is not bothering but funny. How easily she gets shocked!
So, we have …

So, we have a lot of young men. I couldn't choose! Especially two men found the way in my heart and I guess in Eadlyn's too. Let's see what the next book brings.
Only small aspect where I was a bit disappointed is that I couldn't see the America and the Maxon from the previous books. They are now "Mom and Dad" - like stereotypical parents which are complete strangers to the reader. A pity!
