Having finished this book I have concluded that The Selection could have been two books or even one book. I'm not completely sure how I was able to finish this book. Pretty much this book has much of the same exasperating storyline as the second book. America is so unbelievable insecure that she runs crying or isolates herself to cope with the pain. Sorry America, Maxon is allowed to like and have feelings for other girls, he is looking for a wife and you just keep pushing him away and hurting him. Also I hate the way you keep Aspen on the backburner in case things don't work out with Maxon. You are a terrible person. I hate the way you act all self-righteous when you act like a child and have the nerve to get angry at Maxon. Above that I hate that you turn into a cruel person and strike own anyone who tries to talk you into doing the right thing, but you rather not face it because you worry more about how will harm your chances of having Maxon as your husband. 
 This book fell apart and lost its purpose. 
 But despite all the I liked that we get to know the rebels a lot more. The end was pretty good. 
 I have no desire to read the next book, especially since its not just one book. I think I have complained enough.
