THE ELITE BY KIERA CASS

BOOK TITLE: The Elite
AUTHOR: Kiera Cass
PUBLISHER: Harper Collins (Teen)
RELEASE DATE: April 23th 2013
NUMBER OF PAGES: 336
MAIN GENRES: Young Adult, Romance, Post Apocalyptic

Our story began in The Selection when 35 girls moved to the palace hoping to someday marry Prince Maxon; however, by the beginning of The Elite, only 6 girls remain.

(You can find my review of The Selection, here.)

For our dear America, this means only five girls left to compete with.


Natalie, Elise, Celeste, Kriss and Marlee.


Only 5 other girls, and Maxon has already expressed his feelings for America. Should be a piece of cake. Right?

Well, America is in for surprise because everyone's upping their game, and this time she's not the only one with a secret.


I'm not going to lie, whilst reading The Elite you'll probably develop a deep, deep hatred for some of the characters, America included. I wish I could say you wouldn't, but I think you will. I did.
Then again, maybe I'm just a complete bitch.

Seriously though, there were times when I was practically in tears because of hate I felt growing inside of me.


Some revelations will bring you to tears, other's will make you want to kill.

You'll probably find the storyline predictable and you'll probably hate yourself at some point for predicting some of the most important aspects of the novel. I know I did.
Then again, maybe I'm just way too self-loathing.

You'll probably not put the book down until you finish it, and then realize you had a million other things to do. Which is what happened to me.
Then again, maybe I'm just a complete procrastinator.

But, one thing I can say for sure is that holymotheroffluffykitteneverywhere! The Elite will sweep you off your feet and leave you wanting more.
Then again, maybe I'm just way too in love with Maxon to see clearly.

I screamed, cried and probably lost all hope at ever being normal whilst reading The Elite. And you know what?
I LOVED IT.


Oh and umm.. Maxon?

ILOVEYOUU♥

I loved The Selection. A lot
No, Seriously, I practically went crazy when it ended and I absolutely could not wait for The Elite !

So..Imagine my surprise, not to mention confusion when, whilst browsing through various reviews on Goodreads, I noticed that there are so many bad reviews about The Selection..


I was like: Wait.. What?

I finished this on Christmas Eve 2012, but have only just decided to write a review (and only a quick, kitty filled one) because I loved The Selectionand I think it deserves a lot more positive reviews written about it. (Although admittedly I don't do much writing in my reviews and tend to let the kitties do all the talking..


Why all the kittehs?

I own the audiobook of The Selection and because I was too lazy and tired to actually read at the time, I listened to it instead. Listening to audiobooks isn't something I normally do, because I tend find them annoying and I'd normally much rather read a book myself. But, surprisingly, I adored it, and pretty much didn't turn it off..


And when I wasn't listening to it, all I could think was:


Which, needless to say didn't really help during lessons..
