This is a meme where you post about an upcoming book that you're excited about.
I'll be joining my Waiting on Wednesday post with Wishlist Wednesday hosted by Pen to Paper.
This is a meme where you post about a book that you can't wait to get off your wishlist and onto your shelves!
The book that I have been waiting for for more than 8 months that was just released is The One by Kiera Cass.
The Selection changed the lives of thirty-five girls forever. And now, the time has come for one winner to be chosen.
America never dreamed she would find herself anywhere close to the crown—or to Prince Maxon's heart. But as the competition approaches its end and the threats outside the palace walls grow more vicious, America realizes just how much she stands to lose—and how hard she'll have to fight for the future she wants.
I finished book two in this series The Elite back in November when I couldn't find a concrete answer for when the last book was coming out and it drove me crazy! I'm super excited the book is finally out- it was released May 6th but I'm still going to have to wait to get it from the library or find room in the budget to buy it.
I find myself really enjoying this book- it is kind of a Cinderella tale with lots of women coming to the ball to vie for the Prince's attention but only one is going to come away the queen. I don't really know why I enjoy this book so much though. There is a serious case of insta-love here and now we have two love triangles- one on either side and this is objectively the kind of book I can't stand. BUT I REALLY DO ENJOY IT AND I CAN'T WAIT TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS NEXT! I can view this book as an objective outsider and it really isn't a great book- the main plot is who is going to end up with who and the secondary plot is what is happening with the country but somehow it works.
Have you read The Selection? What do you think? Have you ever had a book that you loved that you had no idea WHY you love it? Leave me a comment and let me know!
The One was sooooooooooo good! I hope you get ahold of it soon!

these coveres are always so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThat was the reason I picked up The Selection! Because the covers so pretty that I had to give it a chance.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
This is a series I haven't gotten to yet. I just got The Selection not long ago finally so I will have to get on it soon! Thanks for stopping by earlier. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteIts actually a pretty good series even though I have no idea why I love it so. Hahaha.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
Nice pick! I haven't read this series, but I know a lot of people who like it. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI am irrationally attached to this series and I can't wait to find out what happens!
DeleteThanks for dropping by!
I just ordered this one from Barnes & Noble, because they had the special edition that came with a poster of The Selection and The One! These books are so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous then! I bet the posters are gorgeous! I love the covers of these books!
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
This is everywhere at the moment!! I love the covers, aren't they stunning!! I haven't started this series yet but have the first two! Hope you get this soon!!
ReplyDeleteThat's what drew me to the series to begin with! The covers are so pretty and I couldn't help pick them up. I'm hoping a nearby library has it so I can get my grubby hands on it soon. :)
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
Looks like a series I could easily get addicted to. Love the cover! I might have to put this on my list...not that I need to feed my reading addiction!
ReplyDeleteI meant to stop by earlier, sorry. Nice choice. I'm yet to start this series and debating whether I should, it seems those who have read the last book have enjoyed it so maybe I'll give it ago.
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, I haven't started this series yet! The covers are gorgeous, though. :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty good series if you can find it at the library or somewhere else. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. :) The covers are what made me look into the series in the first place.
