Read this series for the first time when I was 13. Re-reading again as a 25 year old and I’m still giggling and kicking my feet! Already can’t wait to read it again one day years from now.

If you're looking for a book with depth, original characters, and a writing style that makes your heart flutter then this book is not for you. However, if you are looking for a quick read, this one's for you.

I'm out of school, drained,and looking for a little mindless fluff, and stumbled upon this gem. Although the characters are a bit predictable and superficial, the names are bizarre, and the setting is . . . well, unclear, the Bacheloresque storyline is somewhat enjoyable. I mean, you know how it's going to end, but it's a lot like those vapid reality shows - you just can't turn the channel.

Obviously, I am not the intended audience (especially since I'm one of those hideous Southerners), but I believe many high school girls will adore this book and the rest of the trilogy.

Couldn’t put it down! Innocent love character development mixed with independent fierceness and character arcs that leave you with fantastic closure !

I loved these books! My favorite was the first one, but they were all really good. I loved how engaging it was, because I didn’t want to put it down. I also loved the character development of America Singer (the man character) and the idea of self identity. It’s definitely a fun young adult romance! Lowkey reminded me of the show the Bachelor, because the prince was seeking a wife between many girls.
