Ohhhh my lord. I LOVE the cover for The Elite! Seriously. Just whoa.
ReplyDeleteAlthough the summary sounds a little boring, I wish it were more about the rebels and the dystopian world rather than the romance... But I did really enjoy The Selection.
:)
IKR? I haven't been able to stop gawking at it! Kiera Cass seriously always has the best covers. *.* And I agree with you, I'm more into action than just romance. :P But The Selection was a cute and fast read.
