Masque of Red Death (***)

This book takes place in a futuristic society in a city where a sickness epidemic ruined everything. Araby, the main character's father developed a mask that could filter the infected air. Her friend, April goes missing, so her brother, Elliott goes to meet Araby. Elliott falls in love with Araby, but tells her never to trust him. Araby thinks she's falling for Will, a worker at Elliott's uncle's club. She doesn't know who to trust, and both men are fighting for her. I'll give this book three out of five stars. This book is 320 pages long.

The Selection (**)

Selection is about a girl named America who is picked to run for Queen. She does not want to leave her home. She’s in love with a boy named Aspen who leaves her because he doesn’t want her to have to support his family. Long dresses are worn, which I would absolutely despise because I hate skirts and dresses. She forms a friendship with the Prince, who loves her, but she does not love him. This book is two out of five stars. **/***** I didn’t like it because it was extremely boring and too girly for me. It was too poufy and princess and had and extremely predictable plot line that I have seen in many books. 327 pages long.
