The One, by Kiera Cass

The third and final book in the Selection series, The One, is just the perfect ending to the slightly suspenseful journey of waiting to know who Prince Maxon will pick. America has finally made her decision to be not only a One by caste but Maxon's "one." However, will her actions change the mind of the Prince who is now having to make the serious decision not based on his feelings but the betterment of his country? Also, will the other girl Kriss get into the mind of Maxon as a better choice as America can't make up her mind between him and Aspen? Following a not-so-great second book of the series, The One, by  Kiera Cass, is an amazing ending to the much anticipated finale of a wonderful fairytale/dystopian novel. I love how we can experience the ups and downs of the relationship between America and Prince Maxon as they stray to other people, actually understanding how much they continue to love each other when times are toughest. Finally, we come to the conclusion with satisfaction and gratitude to the author for fulfilling our needs of a happy ending. Reviewed by Alexis K., Grade9 Montrose Library
