This book was really a crossover of The Bachelor and The Hunger Games. I loved reading it from America’s perspective and it’s funny how everyone else wants the crown or the prince but America doesn’t. I also love how Maxon has the ability to punish America for her manners and doings but he lets it go since every girl he’s ever met is polite and virtuous. Another thing that has caught my eye is that the first 3 books are about Maxon’s selection, and the covers are the same color of the American flag.
