If you already didn't know, I am a huge fan of The Selection Trilogy by Kiera Cass. For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, The Selection Trilogy is about a young woman named America Singer who is of age to partipate in a contest called The Selection. In The Selection, thirty five girls in dystopian America have the chance of winning the heart of Prince Maxon, the prince and heir to the throne. America should be thrilled to have the chance to be Maxon's wife. There is just one problem: She's already in love with someone else. The thing is, once she meets Prince Maxon she starts to re-evaluate everything she's ever known.
Cool right? Well if you haven't read it leave now because it is spoilers from here on out.

The end of The Elite really made me think about what Kiera was going to do for the next book. I honestly thought the actual selection would be over by now and America would go on fighting for the castes to be gone. Obviously that didn't happen. Here's a list of what we still need to find out/ be resolved:
1) Why the northern and southern rebels took those books
2) The caste system
3) The love triangle (please be Maxon)
4) The problem with the King (he has to die)
5) The thing with Kriss and Celeste
Side note- I thought Kriss was really nice at first but then I really started to dislike her at the end of the Elite. Celeste... yeah she's still a little snot.
So there is enough for another book here and Kiera intends to make it work. A couple days ago, MTV released a video that premiered the official cover of The One and showed how they made it. Click Here to watch it.
Here is the cover for The One!
Of all the covers Kiera could I chose I really like this one. However, I don't really like that the dress is white. It gives the image that she will be getting married to Maxon at some point. I would have liked to a purple dress like the one she wore when she thought she would be going home. It symbols rebellion which is going to be a main problem in The One with America being a sort-of center to it while being in the castle under the king's watchful eye.
I love the hook at the top! "Only one girl can win the crown." EEP! Sounds awesome.
What do you think of the cover? Would you have liked to have seen a different color dress or do you like the color? What are your predictions for The One?
