The Selection is set in a future America, now known as Illéa. To prevent riots Illéa was split into 35 states and in each state there are 8 castes, with people classed in terms of professions.
As the prince of Illéa comes of age, the country selects 35 girls to take part in the Selection to try and win his heart. America Singer reluctantly applies and is selected to take part and her life changes forever.
America is a multi-dimensional character who is relatable to every teenage girl. America is from the caste of 5, a caste dedicated to musicians and artists, she is outcast from the rest of the group. She rebels against the palace rules as she has her own beliefs and wont have them changed just due to the position she has now been propelled into. She is a strong female character and always puts others before herself so that they can live the best quality of life they can. She gives up her hard-earned money before the Selection to her family so they can afford to eat and keep their house.thankuuu Nitin jangra
