The One by Kiera Cass Book Review!

I'm finally reviewing The One, which is the third book in The Selection series by Kiera Cass. This is, by far, my favorite book in the series.

I don't know where to start. How about I start with saying AMERICA AND MAXON ARE TOGETHER!!! NOW I CAN DIE HAPPY!!! To be honest accidentally had it spoiled for that America chose Maxon, but I didn't really care because that's what I wanted.

I guess the one thing that was annoying was that they just wouldn't say that they loved each other in the beginning of this book. There was a part where America say that she's not going to say it first. Really America? I love the part when they finally say I love you to each other, and I love the part when Maxon tells her to call him her royal husbandness was really cute.

And Aspen and Lucy! I ship it! I like Aspen more in this book then the last two books. I don't hate Aspen, I just don't like it when someone tries to get in the way of my OTP. I think Aspen and Lucy make a great couple.

I'm a little sad that some characters I liked died, but I'm really happy my favorite characters are alive!

And then there's Celeste, who I didn't like at all in books one and two was now being nice and supportive and almost all I could think is 'Who are you and what have you done with Celeste?' Not that her being nice was a bad, it was just so unlike her, but I'm glad she had a change of heart, until, you know, the end.

I love this book! It was both heartbreaking and heartmending, and the ending was amazing!!! I NEED THE HEIR NOW KIERA CASS!!!

The Elite by Kiera Cass Book Review!

 I'm now going to review The Elite, which is the second book in The Selection series by Kiera Cass. WARNING: SPOILERS!

Here's a short summary. America is confused about her feelings for Maxon and Aspen. Told you it was short.

I'm the kind of person who watches reviews on YouTube so I kind of knew a little about what happened in this book, but I didn't know exactly what I was getting myself into until I read. I love this book but I agree with CassJayTuck when I say that this book was frustrating in good way.

Most of the book America being with Maxon one minute and then Aspen the next. I mentioned in my review for The Selection that I don't like Aspen and America as a couple. At all. And by the time I read this book I was at the point where I wanted Aspen to leave because he was annoying me. And there were part when Maxon kind of got on my nerves, like seeing him make out with Celeste. As for America, I actually kind of like her. Some people who read the books really don't seem to like that much, but I do. Yeah, she's not my favorite heroin in all of book history, but she's okay.

The parts I did like has to be the cute Maxerica parts. I ship them so much!

There were also scenes that made my jaw drop to the floor, and one of the was the whole thing with Marlee. That scene was so sad but it was sweet that Carter was trying to reassure her that everything will be okay, and then they got married which I thought was sweet. 

I don't like the king at all. He's such a horrible person! And the part where Maxon and America are in the room together and he shows her his back that whole scene just made my sad and he said that he should have proposed that night in her room, and she said that she should have let him, and by that point I was crying.

Another part that made my jaw drop was America attacking Celeste. I was expecting her to punch Celeste, but then that happened. Celeste did deserve it, but I don't really now how I feel about that scene.

I really do like this book, but, honestly, it's not my favorite of the series.

The Selection by Kiera Cass Book Review!

I'm back with another review! This time I'm reviewing The Selection which is the first book in the Selection trilogy by Kiera Cass. I loved this book!!! 

Everyone in the country of Illea are rated by the caste system starting from One to Eight and your caste determines her occupation, pretty much. America Singer, a Five is in love with Aspen, a Six, who tells her to enter the Selection. Whoever wins the Selection gets to marry Prince Maxon. When America meets Maxon he's nothing like she thought he was and starts falling for him, not sure if she should choose Aspen or Maxon.

I ship Maxon and America so hard! For me the boat of 'Who Do I Ship With America' sailed when I first saw Maxon. When I saw Aspen and America being all couple-y I felt nothing and Aspen kept reminding me of Gale from The Hunger Games. But when I saw Maxon and America together I couldn't help smiling. And when Aspen came back into the picture near the end of the book I wanted him to leave. I have nothing against Aspen, I just don't really like him that much. And if you read my reviews you know how I feel about love triangles.

I love Maxon's character. He's so different from every guy in every YA book that I read so far. He's so polite, and compassionate, and just a gentleman which was very nice to see.

And then there's Celeste who I REALLY don't like! Her character reminds me of Nellie Olsen from the Little House books. I like Marlee and America's friendship, and it was nice to see that not all of the girls were competitive and were nice to America. 

And let's take a moment and look at the book cover. That's one of the reasons why I love this series: the covers are beautiful and the dresses are so pretty!

I saw some people say that this book is "too girly", but I'm perfectly fine with that. The Selection isn't The hunger Games, or Divergent, or Legend and I like those books and all, but sometimes it's nice to have a change and this was a change I liked.

All in all, this was a great book, and I want to read The Elite.

Anne's House of Dreams by L. M. Montgomery Book Review!

Anne's House of Dreams is the fifth book in the Anne of Green Gables series by Lucy Maud Montgomery. Normally when I read a series I would review all the books in order, but I don't own books four and six so I just going to skip them for now. WARNING: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS INCLUDING THE DEATH OF A CHARACTER!!!

After three years of waiting, Anne Shirley and Gilbert Blythe are finally married. They move away from Avonlea to Four Winds to their house of dreams. Gilbert is a successful doctor. Anne befriends with Leslie Moore, a young woman who keeps to herself. The book shows the first three years of Anne and Gilbert's marriage.

It's a little sad that Anne moved away from Avonlea, but Four Winds is also very pretty. Out of all of Anne and Gilbert's neighbors I liked Captain Jim the most. He told some interesting stories, and he was very sweet. I'm happy is life book was written. And the fact that he died after finishing it, and when Gilbert said Captain Jim had crossed the bar made me cry.

I do't really like Miss Cornelia. She kind of reminds me of Rachel Lynde. She doesn't seem to like men very much and whenever she talks about them she the sentence by saying "Just like a man." I find this a little ironic because at the end of this book Miss Cornelia marries Marshall Elliott.

I like Leslie. She is quiet, and is very privet about her life. Leslie sometimes is jealous of Anne because Anne has a loving husband and a baby on the way. Leslie and Anne become good friends, and she marries Owen Ford. Leslie is a good character and I do like her friendship with Anne and I like that they stay friends in the future, but their friendship kind of makes me miss Anne and Diana's friendship.

Another part that made me cry was when Anne gives birth to Joyce, but Joyce doesn't survive. That whole part was just heartbreaking.

I like that we also see some familiar faces such as Marilla, Diana, Jane Andrews, Miss Lavendar, Charlotta the Fourth, Paul Irving, and even Phillipa Gordon

Even tough this isn't my favorite book of the series, I enjoyed it.

Uprising by Shelly Crane Book Review!

Today I'm reviewing Uprising by Shelly Crane, which is the second book in the Collide series. WARNING: SPOILERS!!!

So much happens in this book. Sherry and Merrick's little group is getting bigger and bigger, and the Taker is getting creepier and creepier. The Specials getting strange powers for no apparent reason (This technically happened in the last book, but I forgot to mention it).

What makes this book different from the last one is that we get Cain and Lillian's POV's, not just Sherry and Merrick's. I love Cain and Lillian! We also get the Taker's POV sometimes, too.

Shelly Crane really pulled on my my heart strings this time. Cain and Lillian are so cute! They are so good together that you can't help but ship it. And Jeff and Marissa finally got together! The are so cute and everyone finding out was hilarious. If you're anything like me then you'll have four or five OTPs by the end of the series.

Cain at one point admits that he is in love with Sherry. I disliked that part not because I didn't like Cain, but because I really don't like love triangles. But Cain is a really good guy and doesn't act on his feelings toward Sherry. All in all I really like Cain's relationship with Sherry and Merrick.

I also like Lillian and Sherry's friendship. In the last book Lillian was in, like,one part (she may have been in more but I don't remember). After her husband's death, Lillian is trying to move on and seems to really drawn to Cain. I really love the part when Lillian goes to rescue Cain. 

And then Shelly Crane did a thing that broke my heart. The part in which Merrick asked Sherry if she was cheating on him with Cain. That part and the few chapters after that just broke me. I knew Piper was behind it! Shelly Crane really had me worried. 

Danial is interesting. He's a Lighter but goes from bad to good after seeing Lillian. He also helps out Sherry at the end of the book. I like Danial, but He's not my favorite.

And then there's Lily. Lily is three year old girl whom Sherry and Merrick adopt. I love the cute family moments they have.

Two characters have birthdays in this book. Sherry turns twenty and Calvin turns twelve, I think.

I like that all the Specials have super powers. Cain's power is especially awesome.

I love this book. Shelly Crane is amazing.
