PRAISE FOR KIERA CASS: “A real page-turner. Romance, royalty, and revolution in a reality-show format serve Cass boldly rendered heroine well in her quest for justice and love.” ALA Booklist
Review
“An engrossing tale reminiscent of Shannon Hales Princess Academy and Ally Condies Matched. Fairy-tale lovers will lose themselves in Americas alternate reality and wish that the next glamorous sequel were waiting for them.” School Library Journal
Review
“Deliciously entertaining.” Publishers Weekly
Review
“Casss immensely readable debut novel is a less drastic Hunger Games, with elaborate fashion and trappings. The fast-paced action will have readers gasping for the upcoming sequel.” ALA Booklist
Review
“A cross between The Hunger Games (minus the bloodsport) and The Bachelor (minus the bloodsport), this trilogy launch is a lot of fun. Cass deftly builds the chemistry between America and Maxon, while stoking the embers of Americas first, forbidden love.” Publishers Weekly
