“The One” is the last book in the original “Selection” trilogy before the author, Kiera Cass, decided to keep going with the series writing “The Heir”.
Maxon have to decide who will be queen. The rebels from the north do not want to finish the monarchy but they want to abolish the castes, because of that they want prince Maxon to choose America as queen. The king on the other side wants her out. Maxon would love America to be his queen but he does not want to lose his other choices in case America does not want to be with him. America wants to be with Maxon but she needs proof he does not want to be with the others.
“The One” was a really entertaining fun read. I liked because it was fast paced and a lot of thing happened in the book. I also like the ending, even if it was kind of predictable, I liked how everything got into place. The only thing I did not like about this series was the back and forth Maxon and America have all the time, they are so indecisive. Apart from that I really enjoyed the books and I think it was an original take on fairy tales as well as dystopia.

To sum up, “The one” was a really good ending to an entertaining and recommendable series. I will continue with “the heir” but I like to think about it as a spin off of the series, since the selection until this point was a really good series which could have finished here.

October Wrap Up - November TBR

Hello again everyone, Today starts a new month and that means that it is time to wrap up the previous month and set this month's TBR. Last month I set an ambitious TBR which I was unable to complete entirely, but I did manage to get a lot read which makes me kind of happy. As I also said on the previous month's post I was going to center this past month's TBR on the "Sweep/ Wicca" series by Cate Tiernan, and that is what I did. I managed to finish the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, and get thought half of the eleventh.

Appart from that, I want to keep finishing s...
