BUDDY READ - The Selection #5: The Crown by Kiera Cass


The Crown (The Selection, #5) will be Published May 3rd, 2016.

Twenty years have passed since the events of The One, and America and Maxon’s daughter is the first princess to hold a Selection of her own. Princess Eadlyn didn’t think she would find a real partner among the Selection’s thirty-five suitors, let alone true love. But sometimes the heart has a way of surprising you... and now Eadlyn must make a choice that feels more difficult—and more important—than she ever expected.

The Selection series has sold more than 3 million copies and captured the hearts of fans around the world. This swoon-worthy final installment is the happily ever after they’ve all been waiting for.

Natália Lopes (silkcaramel) 2 or 5 for me. The model from cover 2 looks more like the Eadlyn I pictured while reading The Heir and I move the gold dress. It's not as princess-like as the other Selection covers but Eadlyn is more 'serious' in personality than America was and a more structured dress fits her better,I think. I also loved cover 5 dress, it's gorgeous and a navy blue,a royal color! It complimented the model better than the actual cover dress, even though the pose it's still weird.

The trailer for the book is out and I'm NOT.READY!
Also, I love the girl chosen for Eadlyn! AND THE DRESS IS GORGEOUS! I want that dress on the cover, instead of the frilly purple one.

Love the actress. She is Princess Eadlyn. The dress was almost perfect.

I've just started listening to it and it's SOOO Good!

I enjoyed this last book. I don't understand why so many reviews are harsh.

Karen (karenlovesya) | 36 comments I enjoyed the entire series. The last two books were a little off in my opinion. I did still enjoy them. They just were not as enjoyable. It's too bad she doesn't have another book in the works.

She has one other book. It's her first "The Siren" The Siren by Kiera Cass

I have it but I haven't listened to it yet. It has mixed reviews.

It looks like she doesn't have an upcoming books listed on Goodreads. That seems a bit odd. Maybe she is working on something but it's too early to add to Goodreads??

This statement, from her website, may explain why there isn't another book in the works.

"TOUR UPDATE

MAY 5, 2016

After much consideration, I regretfully announce that The Crown Tour has been cancelled. Though I seriously want to meet with you all and celebrate the final book in the series, I am not in a healthy place physically or mentally for the stresses of touring. I am so sorry for any disappointment caused for those of you who planned to make it out to a stop, but I'm sure we will cross paths down the road. Until next time, enjoy the books. All the love, K."

I hope she will recover soon.
