What's The Elite all about?
Friday, October 5, 2012 at 9:01AM Well, here's what it says on GoodReads. Enjoy!
"Thirty-five girls came to the palace to compete in the Selection. All but six have been sent home. And only one will get to marry Prince Maxon and be crowned princess of Illea.
America still isn’t sure where her heart lies. When she’s with Maxon, she’s swept up in their new and breathless romance, and can’t dream of being with anyone else. But whenever she sees Aspen standing guard around the palace, she is overcome with memories of the life they planned to share. With the group narrowed down to the Elite, the other girls are even more determined to win Maxon over—and time is running out for America to decide.
Just when America is sure she’s made her choice, a devastating loss makes her question everything again. And while she’s struggling to imagine her future, the violent rebels that are determined to overthrow the monarchy are growing stronger and their plans could destroy her chance at any kind of happy ending."

This is true Awesome, I cannot Wait For The Elite, I hope It'll a little bit faster to release. :D
Lets get real here... how much of a bribe are we talking for an early release copy??? but seriously this book makes me feel like my life is crap (in a good way if you can catch my drift). you make the characters feel so real i start to look for them on the street. The relationships are so real you start to get angry over them, and for real i want to rip the dress of of that chick Celeste, like what a bitch!!! but its good to have a character like her in the book, keeps you heated. and Maxon!! Not trying to get all hunger games on you but i kind of feel like the perfect person to play him would be Josh Hutcherson. not sure if anyone else agrees but i do!!! any way thanks for the good read, and try to keep in mind the bribe ;)
OMG REALLY. You're killing me here... I CANNOT WAIT till the Elite. Gosh, I hope it is Maxon that she ends up with... If it's not I'm literally going to crawl in to a hole and die. Well, not literally. But I'll probably cry... Okay, you get my point, ahhaa.
Fantastic book!! Found info about it on Amazon while I was looking up info for Ally Condie's book Reached. The site said, "If you liked Ally's first two books you'll love The Selection by Kiera Cass." Boy, was it RIGHT!!! Couldn't put it down. Very well written. Very "real" characters. LOVED IT!!! I totally hope America ends up with Maxon.... Aspen should end up with Celeste some how....LOL. Can't wait for The Elite!!
Why are you taunting me? I have read the selection like a billion trillion times. I have memerized like nine paragraphs. NEED THE ELITE!
