This is the perfect ebook novella to read while waiting for the second book in THE SELECTION series: THE ELITE.
I really loved reading Prince Maxon's POV. This novella shows us the selection through his eyes. I loved seeing how he viewed the girls including America. Plus the hint of a possible other interest: Daphne, the French king's daughter. I can't help but think there's more to this story and hope to see more of her. There's also the first two chapters of THE ELITE included so readers get a 'taste' of what to look forward to in April.
The only thing missing had to be this novella was too short! I wanted more! But like I said, this is really just a teaser to have readers salivating for the next SELECTION book. I can't wait!
I agree with the other YABC editors here: If you haven't read THE SELECTION series yet? This novella is the perfect place to start.

I was really excited when I saw that this was a prequel to THE SELECTION and couldn't wait to "meet" the infamous Prince Maxon.
What I liked: I always enjoy watching a story unfold from another character's POV and this one was especially fun because it's Prince Maxon. We get a peek at what his life is really like and the pressure he's under, not only to choose a wife but to please his parents.
What left me wanting: Nothing, although I could've read an entire book from Prince Maxon's POV.
Final verdict: If you haven't read THE SELECTION yet, I suggest starting with this one.

I was excited to find out about this Novella told from Prince Maxon's point of view. It made me get even more excited for The Elite.
What I loved: I loved that Maxon had a chance to share his side of the story. I enjoyed the insight into his thoughts and feelings as the process of The Selection began. This short story gives Prince Maxon even more appeal because readers can see him as a complete character, not someone else's perception of him.
What left me wanting more: Not much, really. I wish the story had actually been a little longer and we got to hear more from Maxon's point of view.
Final Verdict: Fans of The Selection will enjoy this. If you haven't read The Selection yet, pick it up and get The Prince as well!
