Debut Author Challenge #5




 
My fifth Debut Author book, THE SELECTION, by Kiera Cass came from Audible:
 
 

I rarely have cover love...except for amazingly appropriate and funny covers like Beauty Queens. Still, this one did it for for me...It's just so gorgeous.
 
And the story lived up to it for me. A more mature Princess Academy mixed with a more YA appropriate version of The Bachelor.
 
The romance rules in this one, which I love to see. Yes, there are political issues and dangers, but the relationships are first. Again, yay!
 
What about you? Read this one? Any other debuts to recommend?

    That is a gorgeous cover. Pretty girl in a big dress is not usually my thing, but I really love that one.

    I didn't really expect to like this one, but I had to stay up late one night to finish it--it was so good!

    I read this on my Kindle recently as a library book! Which was kinda cool. I enjoyed it and hope to read the second. Though, I felt the ending was a little abrupt. I didn't get the sense of a real climax. But I still enjoyed it, regardless.
