Synopsis:
The highly anticipated conclusion to Kiera Cass's #1 New York Times bestselling Selection series, The One will captivate readers who love dystopian YA fiction and fairy tales. The One is the perfect finale for fans who have followed America's whirlwind romance since it began--and a swoon-worthy read for teens who have devoured Veronica Roth's Divergent, Ally Condie's Matched, or Lauren Oliver's Delirium.
The Selection changed America Singer's life in ways she never could have imagined. Since she entered the competition to become the next princess of Illéa, America has struggled with her feelings for her first love, Aspen--and her growing attraction to Prince Maxon. Now she's made her choice . . . and she's prepared to fight for the future she wants.
Find out who America will choose in The One, the enchanting, beautifully romantic third book in the Selection series! ( Goodreads synopsis )

Review: SPOILERS ALERT
If you have not read
The Selection or The Elite then I recommend you read them and come back so that you do not get spoiled :)This is one of those series where the main character is really frustrating at times but there is just something about the books that keep you coming back for more. Throughout this series America has been very annoying with her decisions and more than anything in this book. She could have just told Maxon that she loved him and it would have been all over but instead she plays games ugh. I was quite surprised to find out that America's dad was a Northern rebel and that the Northern rebels wanted to work with Maxon and America to take away the casts. When she goes home for her fathers funeral I get really frustrated with Kota, he so rude. I also got very annoyed that America didn't tell Maxon about Aspen, that was obviously what was going to cause problems. I did wish that there was a chapter or two of America as Queen but all in all I am happy with how it ended :)

Overall:
If you like dystopians, I do recommend you read this, you may get a bit frustrated with America but there is something still that is intriguing and addictive & it will leave you satisfied :)
