There was no story to this one Stories from Celeste I felt like that was explained but HARSH man HARSH!) BUT I mean come on.

Sure it shows that Aspen can be sweet and not a meany to America (like when she left ad he was hugging some girl. The thing I had the most problems with was the length! The Maid is SUPER short and nothing happens at all it seems. This one was my second most anticipated because LUCY that sweet little maid but Aspen? Man I didn’t see that coming but aw! Again… I couldn’t get into the writing for this one *sighs*.

It didn’t feel forced whereas I kind of felt like the others were? I don’t know so… *cough cough* The Maid In this story, we learn all about Marlee, the BEST! I did love her romance with Carter, their love out of all the love in this series, felt the most real to me. I just don’t like the voice of the characters or how it flows. I just can’t get into her writing, it doesn’t mean that she is BAD at writing. I think my main problem with The Selection books in general is the writing. I was incredibly excited for this novella but… I felt a bit let down :(. THIS! This is the novella I was literally jumping up and down for because I LOVE Marlee and her story, she is my favorite character in this whole entire series (not including Henri from The Heir because he was adorable hopefully he won’t betray me in the end XD DON’T LET ME DOWN HENRI STAY YOUR SWEET SWEET SELF!). If you want to know my thoughts on The Prince, The Guard and The Queen than please visit my reviews. So for this, I’ll be mini reviewing the whole book Happily Ever After in general (a summary of my thoughts) and the new stories I just read. The Selection and The Elite- I read these before we had a blog so I have no reviews for them :[ the short is, I wasn’t a huge fan but I did enjoy The Elite more than The Selection. Just as a recap, here are my reviews for the other books in the series. Meaning I haven’t read the other half of the stories, The Maid, Stories from Celeste, After The One and The Favorite. The ones I have already read and reviewed are The Queen, The Prince and The Guard. Why am I still reading these books? Sure I think the idea is kind of cute and the romance is cheesy (I LOOOOVE cheesy romance) but I haven’t like a single book in The Selection series unless you count The One.īefore this handy dandy collection of novellas came out, I had already read about half of them. I’m not trying to sound rude when I say this but….

Happily ever after selection series
