#THE ONE BY KIERA CASS BACK COVER SERIES#

Where the action was lacking in book two, it more than makes up for it in The One. Without America, Maxon doesn't have the backbone he needs to abolish the caste society, but luckily she's strong and sassy enough for the both of them.

I needed him to stand up to his father, who continued to threaten America and created situations not only to embarrass her, but to show that she isn't capable or worthy of being chosen. He's dashing, but at times he seems far too weak to rule. She's tough and I loved seeing her grow into a young woman who stood up for what she believed in. She reluctantly agreed to The Selection in order to provide for her family. Although occasionally America seems to complain a little too often, she's a likable heroine. It's a mix between an arranged marriage and finding a subservient girl, something America can boast she knows nothing about. Prince Maxon will choose a bride from thirty five girls, the educated, the wealthy and for good show, the poor. When she's chosen as one of The Selected, it's her family's chance to move up the ranks, ensuring their children are cared for. A system that awards the wealthy and strips the down and out bare. You number represents who you are, where you live and whether or not you go hungry.
