Selection - Summary
In a dystopian future where society is divided by a rigid caste system, America Singer's life changes dramatically when she is chosen to compete in The Selection - a reality TV-style competition where 35 girls vie for the heart of Prince Maxon and the crown of Illรฉa. Despite her initial reluctance and her complicated feelings for her first love, Aspen, America finds herself navigating palace life, political intrigue, and unexpected feelings for the prince himself. As rebel attacks threaten the palace and competition intensifies, America must decide whether to fight for love or maintain her authenticity in a world of glamour and danger.

The constant tension between following one's heart and fulfilling societal obligations is explored through America's struggle between her feelings for Aspen, her attraction to Prince Maxon, and her responsibilities as a competitor.
