Waiting on Wednesday

Waiting on Harper Teen to adopt me so i can read all of their awesome books! HA! Just kidding! Waiting on Wednesday, rather, is a weekly meme hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine! And this week i'm FREAKIN' OUT/LUSTING OVER: 

The Selection
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.~Goodreads

HOLY GOD! HOW FRUGGIN' FANTASTICALLY AMAZING DOES THIS BOOK SOUND?!!? I think i'm going into cardiac arrest because this book has too much mind-blowingness in its synopsis. Pretty sure its also been described as, "The Hunger Games meets The Bachelor!" O_O Can you say EPIC!? GUYS! You don't understand...i want this book SO. BAD. I also want that dress on the cover! How effin' gorgeous is that dress!?! SQUEEEE!! I am so, SO, SO excited for this book, can you tell? :P


April canNOT come fast enough! Oh! And i'm already Team Aspen! <--how HOT is that name!?

    Okay, this is my kind of book, and I will say I'm team Maxon. I just feel like he'll be one of those pronces who doesnt really want to be a prince and woul dprefer if people didnt fight over him and I'm a sucker for those guys. Besides, his name is cuter :P
