  • Very disappointed

    Kierra Cass disappointed me with the last two books. I disliked the 4th book but I decided to give this 5th a chance and was extremely disappointed. Unlike the first three books, this story was not only draggy, predictable but also not original. The story is a repeat of what happened in the first three books. The main character is extremely unlikable. I extremely dislike this book and would not recommend it to anyone. If you were to read this series, you should only read the first 3 books.

  • Best series I have read in a really long time.

    There are no words, only happy tears and I finish the best series I have read in years. Starting from the beginning with Eadlyn’s father, through to her own Selection, I was captivated with every twist and turn. Well done.

  • I don’t like it

    I absolutely loved the first three books. The Heir was good aswell, and I was excited to see who Edalyn would choose in The Crown. The storyline was amazing, but felt rushed at times. I also admire her character development, but I feel as though it came out of no where. As for Edalyns choice for a husband, it was out of the blue. Yes, she says she has slight feelings for him in certain parts of the book, but all of the sudden she loves him? It felt forced. Even with some flaws, this series was great and I will definitely be recommending it to friends.

  • Great story lines but could use some work

    To be totally honest, this was not one of my favorite books. Although Kiera Cass is amazing at keeping the story going and keeping you entertained, I’ve found that sometimes I don’t quite understand the main character’s feelings or thoughts for the actions they took. The ending was a little weird because the whole time it was hard to understand the main characters emotions. I won’t give anything away for the sake of those who haven’t read it yet. But I personally think it’d be better if she added a bit more insight into the main characters thoughts and emotions. But, the storyline was really great! And think the ideas are definitely amazing. Overall, not my favorite book.

  • Had so much potential but terrible + unsatisfying ending

    I loved the heir and I was excited for the crown, but the ship that was meant to be didn’t end up together which was really really stupid. If you’re interested in Eadlyn and Kile from the book before, stop halfway through and go to wattpad for a better ending!! I really wish i could erase this from my memory. It would’ve been 1 star but Kile Woodwork saved it a bit, I guess.

  • I didn’t like the romance

    (Spoilers in this) The first three books in the Selection were AMAZING! The last two books the Heir and the Crown I didn’t enjoy as much. Eadlyn’s relationship with Erik didn’t really make sense. I personally thought she should ended up with with Kile. She and Kiel’s relationship had romance in it and they really knew each other while in Eadlyn and Erik’s relationship, they didn’t really have any chemistry. Also, she just went around kissing everyone which I though was really weird. Personally I thought the first three books were amazing. Kiera Cass could have done better for the last two books.

  • Do yourself a favor and stop at The One

    The character development in Eadlyn’s story is subpar. She is petulant, overly dramatic, unrelatable, and difficult. Her relationships with others were shallow and surface level, especially with those in selection, even as she got to the Elite, and especially as she made her final selection. The story line was rushed in places, dragged out in others, and lacked significant detail. I kept hoping it would improve, but was severely let down. Especially as the story concluded so abruptly without a well-rounded resolution Honestly wish I could get a refund for both The Heir and The Crown.

  • Sad it’s over!

    This series will keep you on your toes! I describe it to my friends as a mashup of the bachelor, princess diaries and hunger games! Three of my favorites in one amazing, easy to read, and exciting series!

  • Why? Spoiler!

    First of all, I was bummed that she stopped the story of America in the third book. It's not worth reading the last two. I also thought that maybe this would be a good series to read because in the Acknowledgments she thanks God, but then there is swearing in it and there is same sex attraction! Like what?? Why?? That totally just ruined the while book for me!!!
