I can’t believe I love this book and I can’t believe I can’t wait for the next one!!! I think Shannon from Cincinnati did a great job reviewing this book (my thoughts exactly). I read a lot of bad reviews on Amazon etc. So much so that I’m sure I’ll hate it. I am so glad I had the chance and received this book. It’s not a literary classic but it was HAPPY read. Can’t wait for the next book to come out.
I loved this book, but the other review is correct, if you hate cliffhangers, wait. The book ended so suddenly, I went crazy. Can’t wait to read more from this author.
This one grabbed me from chapter one. I love how the story unfolds and how the relationships develop. It was a good feeling, although very predictable. The cliffhanger ending was annoying but now that the sequel ‘The Elite’ is out and reads, I’m happier….but hanged once again for the ending. So far, I’d prefer to order either, but never mind if you don’t intend to buy both, it will only disappoint you.
I enjoyed this very much, the plot is excellent but the characters make up this story! Amazingly, you follow the journey of America, where you really see her grow and develop into a lovely young woman. This book has me screaming, clapping, laughing all at once and I can’t wait to start the sequel. I absolutely love this and would recommend it to everyone.
