The Crown is the last book in the selection series. The last two books in the series are a spin off of the original series that follows the daughter of King Manson and her wife America. Their daughter following her father’s path decides that she will chose her future husband in a selection.

The queen’s had a heart attack after knowing about her son absence; this leaves the princess in a really tight spot. She decides to cut down her candidates leaving only the boys that have been able to wake something inside her. She also will have to act as ruler as his father seems unable to do it being as he is too worried about his life. Eadlyn founds herself in a tight position since she will have to make choices that will change her future.

“The Crown” was a good book, however it cost me a ton to get into it since it has been a long time since I read the last book in the series. Apart from that, the book was enjoyable and fine, but was not one of those books that really make a difference. I liked the plot and how it developed, however I did had a problem with the book and it was regarding the love interest, because I did not see it coming until these book. Maybe I did see him having feelings towards her but until the very end of this book I did not see her having any feelings for her. And I do not like when a relationship feels rushed and nonsense.


“The Crown” was a good book however if you have read until the third book of the series I would not recommend reading the last to books. These spin-off series within the selection series felt like an add-on, something made to continue on with the series but that was not really necessary.
