Penguin Island by Anatole France About BookQuotersīookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, "Really, Maxon, we've been doing pretty well lately. When you said that you were only here for the food, you weren't kidding, were you?" I'm sure they have already tucked it away so it will stretch out for a long time. I know the checks we've gotten over the last few weeks have really helped, and my family is really smart about money. As a general rule, there are never any leftovers at my house. May didn't understand why we couldn't exchange gifts. The worst was when it happened near Christmas one year. Most time if it gets to where we have to choose, we keep the food and lose electricity. "Probably, but I'm only starting to realize how much I don't know about my own country. Sometimes you do crazy things when you are desperate." I know of a boy who was whipped in the town square for stealing food. I know of families where people give up their share for their children or siblings. does that happen? Are people hungry like that a lot?" "Is that really what it's like? Out there. And if it came to a point where there was absolutely nothing to eat, and you couldn't even fall asleep at night because the sound of her stomach growling kept you awake-" She needs you to provide for her and protect her. She was always the one you would have picked. Like if you were dropped in your own out in the middle of the country to wander around door to door, she's still the one you would have found. She needs you to cherish her and make her feel like the Selection didn't even happen. This girl? imagine that she depends on you.
The one by kiera cass chapter summary series#
The first book was definitely a good start to the series and I’m very excited to see where Cass takes me.Somewhere in this palace, there is a woman who will be your wife. I had a great time throughout this story. Overall:This was a very interesting story with loads of plot twists. I’m surprised at how well she incorporated each of the characters, considering that she has thirty-five girls to include along with other important characters. Cass does a phenomenal at making you love the characters you’re supposed to love and hate the characters you’re supposed to hate. I love America and Marley’s instant friendship and America and Celeste’s tension. He’s so kind and sweet to America and I kind of want him to be a real person! I instantly connected with him and shared feelings that he had. I fell completely in love with Maxon the moment he was introduced. She is different from most of the Selected and is not afraid to stand out and do her own thing. Despite that, Cass does a good job at keeping you hooked and wanting to turn the next page.Ĭharacters:America is such a unique and enjoyable character from when you meet her. I understand that Cass wants to convey a picture with good imagery, but sometimes it’s a little unnecessary. I feel that sometimes there is a little bit of over-describing the setting or what a character is wearing, for example. The book is a tad bit slow at the beginning, but Cass does a good job of introducing you to the characters. Writing: Kiera Cass is not the best writer that I have ever read, but she definitely isn’t the worst either. Little does America know, the Prince is not as snobby and stuck-up as she may perceive him to be. This is because doing this would mean she would have to leave behind her secret boyfriend of two or three years, Aspen, a Six. America isn’t too thrilled about going to the Selection on a mission to seduce the Prince to fall in love with her.
The Ones are those who live in the palace such as the king, queen, and prince, eights are those who are less fortunate and homeless, and then there’s everyone in between.Īmerica Singer is a Five unexpectedly chosen as one of the Selected girls. In the nation of Illéa, there are eight castes. The Selection is where 35 girls are selected as candidates for the Prince of Illéa to fall in love with. Summary: The Selection is the first book of The Selection Trilogy (now series).
