Great Read

I bought this as a Christmas gift to my adult self from the big man. I was enthralled by the story and read the entire series (plus the other related books) in less than a week. I'm a mom with two kids and I also work from home. Somehow I found the time. I didn't get much sleep but it was totally worth it. I loved the series!

I absolutely LOVE these novellas

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 22, 2016

Verified Purchase

I absolutely LOVE these novellas! It was great to read from the different character’s perspectives! I was worried about where Kiera would go with it all (not wanting to spoil my love for the series so far) but, all in all, I was utterly impressed. I especially enjoyed her prefaces to each novella that explained exactly the essence she intended to present with the beloved characters.
Here my individual novella reviews:
***MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS***
-The Prince-
I very much enjoyed reading from Prince Maxon’s point-of-view. Reading through some of the reviews, I realized that many were disappointed in the fact that it only shows a small portion of his perspective compared to the whole Selection series. I mean, c’mon, who wouldn’t want to spend more time in the mind of *sigh* Maxon Schreave?? However, you must note that this is, in fact, a novella not a novel. Overall, I am extremely happy with read and appreciated seeing exactly what Maxon faced during the whole Selection process.
-The Guard-
I was slightly disappointed with this book. I did, of course, love getting the opportunity to see things as Aspen did during the Selection. Nevertheless, I was frustrated by his view. Aspen was selfish and childish when it came to his and America’s relationship. Don’t get me wrong, I really like Aspen’s character as a whole, but after reading this I jumped completely onto the Team Maxon bandwagon.
-The Queen-
Reading about Queen Amberly and King Clarkson’s Selection process was nothing short of interesting. I liked the portrayal of Amberly pre-royalty. Nevertheless, I CANNOT say the same for Clarkson. The best term, however childish, I can find to describe him is a complete jerk. I was hoping there would SOME redemption for him considering how hated he is in the original series. But no. absolutely not. Yeah yeah, he grew up in an abusive home. Whatever. Look at Maxon! I realize that it’s not condoning abusive relationships per say, but really? How could Cass put someone as sweet as Amberly with someone as controlling and abusive as Clarkson!
-The Favorite-
YES YES YES. Marlee was already MY favorite; this book did nothing but help that! I love her and her adorable love story with Carter. They’re love story (despite the caning part, of course) is total -im sorry in advance- GOALS.
-Celeste’s POV-
I’m glad I got to read this. It was nice to see her side of things. She is still portrayed as the same manipulative person; however, she does receive a bit more redemption.

As for the other short stories, I am glad I got to read them. I hate when things are left unsaid… these certainly covered all the bases.

Don’t Miss This Amazing and Enlightening Read

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 18, 2019

Verified Purchase

This book by Kiera Cass is very helpful in understanding what really happened in the points-of-view of characters that are talked about in less depth. The entry on Maxon’s mother answered many questions about her, but it would have been much better if there was a chapter from Maxon’s father, the king’s, side of the story. I am afraid that it only opened up more questions than answered them. Marlee’s chapter was very entertaining and highlighted her feelings and emotions very well. You could really understand how she felt trapped between her desisions and why she did what she did for America in the last two books of the series: The Heir and The Crown. Maxon’s story was a good addition to the book and really cleared up exactly what his role was in the beginning and how he felt with his interactions with America. Aspen’s point-of-view helped the reader really understand what he thought about America and her situation at the castle, it also showed his “letting go” of the situation America had, showing his love for the main character. Lucy’s story was quite interesting. It showed her loyalty to America, but also the lingering pain of her past. When she finally lets go of the pain with the help of someone special, it all really connects. Celeste also had a chapter that demonstrated her true colors, and how she didn’t want to do what she was doing. It shows how she lets go and forgives herself for her actions, and apologizes to the people she’s effected, even thigh it’s not explicit. America’s chapter was the last one, and it summarized what happens at the end, or the beginning rather, of her happily ever after. This book is very helpful for people who have read the series and want to understand its character’s in better detail. I highly recommend reading this book, but if you have not read the Selection series first, I would say you should read the series first, as this book contains many spoilers that will make the plot to the books less interesting. All in all, great book and should definitely read.

Enchanting!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 14, 2016

Verified Purchase

I am a H U G E fan of The Selection series. Kiera has completely entranced me with these books. I'm completely invested in every single one of her characters, and the story constantly has me on tenterhooks. America, Maxon, Marlee & Aspen have a very special place in my heart, and I will always treasure these books and the happiness they bring me.

So, as you can already tell, my opinion of this collection of novellas is a rather biased one. As I mentioned before, this is an enchanting collection of novellas that serve as a complement to The Selection series. If you had read The Prince, The Guard, and The Queen, then you might be hesitant to buy this collection, but if you're a big fan like myself, it is completely worth it! As well as those three novellas, this collection contains:

2 bonus chapters of Maxon's novella - The Prince
The Favorite (Marlee's novella)
3 scenes from Celeste's P.O.V
Lucy's scene (this is a bonus scene from The One),
An epilogue
A few pages entitled "Where Are They Now?" which focus on Kriss, Natalie & Elise.
A Map
Charming Illustrations in each of the novellas/scenes.

Kiera also introduces each of the novellas, giving her perspective on the writing process, as well as her opinion on characters & the storylines. I thought it was a wonderful addition to the book, it was really lovely to learn more about Kiera and how deeply invested she is in her characters - just like me!

It was wonderful to see Maxon (The Prince), Aspen (The Guard) & Marlee's (The Favorite) perspective of the events in books 1-3, although I was already emotionally attached to each of these characters, I felt like I was falling in love with them all over again while I was reading their P.O.V of things. The Queen was probably my favourite to read. Amberly is just a kind, compassionate & gentle soul, that you instantly fall in her love with her. It was wonderful to learn about her Selection process, and how she won the heart of her husband, King Clarkson.

I wont comment on the rest of the scenes in this collection, as I'm afraid of giving anything away. However, I will tell you that they were fantastic! Celeste's scenes are my favourite (maybe in the whole book!), it was wonderful to understand her character more and how she felt about certain events in the books. The illustrations that accompany all of these stories are beautiful! I felt like I was a little kid reading a fairy tale book! They really complemented the stories, and I am secretly hoping that there will be illustrations in The Crown!

All in all, I absolutely loved this book, and when I revisit the series I'll definitely be re-reading this collection! If you are a big fan of The Selection series, this is an absolute must-have! It'll really wet your appetite for The Crown (which is a sequel to The Heir) which is going to be in May 2016.

I enjoyed this book. It gave more of an insight into some of the characters. The Queen helped understand Clarkson and Amberly and how their relationship began and how their relationship worked. The Prince and the guard helps you gain more understanding of Aspen and Maxon, I loved reading about how Maxon saw America right from the beginning. We also had the story about Lucy which helped show how the relationship with Aspen began. One of my favourite stories was about Marlee and helped you understand what happened to her, how it began with Carter and how Maxon helped them. My other favourite was the one which let us see America and Maxon two years into the marriage. These stories definitely helped gain more understanding of the characters, with some added stories about the girls in the elite that didn't win. Will definitely read these again when I read the series again.

Review of Happily Ever After by Kiera Cass

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 21, 2017

Verified Purchase

This is a wonderful book, it fills in the gaps you have after finishing the One. All the stories were lovely and all of them except Amberly's were a different perspective of a book in the Selection series. I really loved the illustrations and I really liked the sneak peak at The Siren. These were the most beautiful and moving happy endings I have ever read. I also really liked how beautiful every story ended and you could see the difference between the arrival and the departure of Celeste; how much she changed.
