The Elite
The Selection #2

by Kiera Cass

genre: YA, romance, dystopian

Synopsis from Goodreads

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, and 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.

You are now the main character in the last book you read. Who are you?

Ignoring that the last book I read was a non-fiction guide to building an editorial calendar (a guide on content marketing), I am Siddalee Walker, oldest daughter of Vivi Abbott Walker, Ya-Ya extraordinaire. No thank you. I’ll take my mom over that woman any day. I’d like to go back one more book to The Elite by Kiera Cass so I can be a musician dating a prince.

Who are you?

PS, dang we didn’t think to do anything for April Fool’s. I think we forgot last year too. One of these years, you won’t know what hit you. 😉
