The Heir

I just started The Heir, by Kierra Cass, following the previous 3 books in the Selection series. After Edalyn found out that she has to go through the selection like her father did, she is distraught. Her royal parents are making her do this because the country of Iliea is going through a hardship with the cases being gone, so her father, also known as the king, wants to make the country happier by doing this. The selection is where there is going to be around 30 men that Edalyn has to pick for her future husband. With Edalyn being just 18, she can’t even think about having a companion. 

I like how this book is written in 1st person; I feel like I get to know Edalyn better whenever it’s her who’s narrating the book. When she found out she would have to go through the selection, the reader was’t confused if Edalyn would like this or not because the reader knows her personality enough to make a judgment. I also like how Edalyn treats her maid. Most people are condescending when they talk to maids, But Edalyn treater her as her friend, and she is. This tells you the type of personality that Edalyn has.
