“Waiting on” Wednesday is hosted weekly by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
Today, I’d like to share one book I’m super duper excited about ever since I first heard of it last year when I was at BEA!
The Selection
Book I in The Selection series!
Publication: April 24th 2012 by HarperTeen
Pre-order your own:Â amazon (Paperback, Kindle) 
Gosh isn’t his cover the most beautiful cover you’ve seen?Â
For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in the palace and compete for the heart of the gorgeous Prince Maxon.
But for America Singer, being Selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn’t want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks.
Then America meets Prince Maxon. Gradually, she starts to question all the plans she’s made for herself- and realizes that the life she’s always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined
Last year at BEA I met her at the Author Speedating and I loved her instantly, when she then talked about her book I was enthralled! It sounds absolutely great and seeing now this gorgeous cover I want to read it NOW!
I really hope it lives up to its promises!
Much love and Happy Wednesday!
And now, please tell me what you are waiting for this week!

I want to read this one too! Instead of rebelling it sounds like this one gives in to, or rather likes her fate. I really want to see what this one is all about!

It is a gorgeous cover! Nice pick! I had the pleasure of reading this one last week and it was a fun book! My review for it will be going up soon. It's a tough one to label as dystopian, but still fun and both the love interests are really sweet and I want her to pick both of them! lol

I'm pretty sure I'll be reading this one, especially since they are shooting a pilot for a TV show based on it. Very curious about it. Great pick and I totally want that dress!_NC_Truly Bookish

I was looking forward to this one as well. But then all this author-blogger drama happened and I didn’t really like Kiera Cass’s response. So, now I’m not sure anymore though it’s petty to judge a book by it’s author.
