Summary
For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in a palace and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon. But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn't want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks. Then America meets Prince Maxon. Gradually, she starts to question all the plans she's made for herself—and realizes that the life she's always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined.
Very cheesy and obviously written for a younger audience, but I enjoyed nonetheless
Trop cool ! Un peu ambiance hunger games / divergente. Dystopie. Après la 4ème guerre mondiale, les États Unis n’existent plus. Maintenant c’est Iléa. C’est une royauté, divisée en 8 castes. Et des jeunes filles du pays sont sélectionnées comme potentielles futures mariées du prince en âge de trouver une femme. C’est romantique, pas compliqué, super. America est divisée entre aspen son ex copain qui est un 6. Et Maxon le prince.
