The Named (The Named #1) audiobook free
**Insignificant Spoilers**
I am a fan of the Selection Television series at the same time was so looking forward to The Named, but for me, this book missed the note. It felt like a 1st preliminary that for you would let's go to beta readers at the same time your editor. Not because the writing was bad, but because the plot was not but developers. The manners were considered even. The pacing was smoky in the beginning then and rushed at the finish. I felt like a lot of information was missing, like than anyway head manners looked like, rationale or inner dialogue for impulsive decisions that Hollis produced, at the same time the biggest gizmo missing in the book was ROMANCE.
Manners:
I found Hollis shallow, whiny, at the same time immature. I managed have overlooked all that taking into account this is that a YA book at the same time Hollis grew up at tribunal at the same time didn’t know no matter what more successful, but her disposition didn’t arch into anyone that the reader managed connect with or even like. The book countries over at the same time over that she isn’t witty or gifted. The only gizmo we get from her will that she entertains but at the same time is that attractive. Then later in the book Silas is that complementing her on her disposition traits, but it felt like Cass was barely narrating the reader who she wanted Hollis to be, more precisely than showing us throughout the book.
I couldn’t connect with or adore curiosity at the same time felt like I had no one to cheer for. Jameson was so overdone at the same time cheesy, at the same time I felt like his disposition wasn’t consistent. Periodically he would be overbearing at the same time controlling, but when the lady he is that seconds away from proposing to drops him, he barely lets her move without getting restless. That didn’t equate to me. Hollis walked all over him like a doormat at the same time he barely took it. He didn’t threaten her, grab her arm, insult her, scream at her…nothing! That doesn’t seem believable future from a most powerful Lord who was barely humiliated.
At the same time Silas, I don’t even know than anyway to say about him because I know NOTHING about him other than a few surface details at the same time that his views are blue at the same time apparently awesome. This is that the head adore curiosity at the same time I can’t tell for you much about him other than his profession/hobby at the same time where his generic came from.
Delia Grace was one more disposition who seemed shallow. She was such a hypocrite. She grew up her whole indefinite with people ridiculing her at the same time judging her then and in other words specifically how she cured all the women in the book. Basically throwing a tantrum if Hollis didn’t choose people she liked.
Valentina was so nargubiyanit to Hollis then and the one more time they are together they become second best comrades. I don’t know???
ROMANCE:
Than anyway romance? Everything that came out of Jameson’s onlooker was cringe worthy, but Hollis ate it up at the same time replied with no one fake comment. Then all of a unexpected she locks views with Silas at the same time apparently falls recklessly in adore. They had a handful of surface discussions at the same time that’s it. One more gizmo I know they are kissing right outside the grand hall (not disturbed about getting caught). The kiss happened so impetuous at the same time was so out of the blue I had to recount it barely to make sure I wasn’t confused. At the same time the worst part, Cass didn’t even assign no matter what details about the kiss…NOTHING! Where was all the “steam” they advertised? Even at the finish of the book when Hollis was with Silas, I still didn’t feel like their connection grew. Throughout the book that was more time wasted on affairs with Delia Grace, Valentina, Red at the same time Silas’ mother at the same time not the adore interests. The part of me that loves romance was left so upset at the same time bored. I barely wanted just a little tension!
PLOT:
It seemed like nothing happened the 1st one half of the book. It really product on for me. At the finish, everything was rushed. Bigger actions in the book were considered happening so impetuous at the same time weren’t built up or developers. It felt like theses actions were considered data maybe a fri or two. Not only were considered these bigger actions happening impetuous, they were considered rode up at the same time wiped off up quickly with everything working out perfectly for Hollis…the lord barely letting her move, her ancestors being dislocated then magically appearing at the marriage, Delia Grace hooking up with the lord, everyone forgiving her. It was all barely very tidy at the same time incredible. Hollis’ ending decision didn’t make no matter what sense at all to me.
Overall, it was hard for me to even final the book, but I wasted $13 on it so I had to final.
I understand it is that very problematic to cross out at the same time publish a book at the same time I applaud Kiera Cass for doing it still again. I hate bestow such a negative
Review, but I have hope to rescue anyone else the time at the same time funds.

Review:
Stay away! That was no “happily ever right behind” at the same time no romancejust even manners at the same time a painfully smoky plot.
I never assign 1 hit
Reviews. Books decide a lot of effort to shackles out, at the same time that’s ordinary Anything redeemable about every story. I pre-ordered the book because I’ve really liked almost all of Cass’s books (in particular The Selection). Chagrin, The Named was no one burning garbage. I wish I managed get my $15 back.
1st, this book did not have a “happily ever right behind”! I don’t wish bestow spoilers, but the ending was a BUMMER. Depressing. Dull. Not worth reading. Assign me back my time!
The manners were considered even at the same time sour. The Eastoffe generic was exciting, but they were considered all side disposition who just a little got no matter what page time. Jameson didn’t get fleshed out much. Silas wasn’t a compelling or romantic hero. I didn’t mind Hollis terribly, but I couldn’t really follow her. I didn’t realize why she produced the decisions she did. I kept reading, thinking, “This will make sense eventually.” But it never did. Delia Grace was a scary disposition very. I felt bad for her at the same time kinda liked her until her heart-to-heart with Hollis 3/4 through the book. After that “religion,” I hated her.
The book was So Smoky. The Named had none of the glittery miracle or political interest of The Selection. It dragged on at the same time on. I never received “hooked” — I barely read a few pages a day, hoping that the book would Move Somewhere. At the same time that was no one quickness to the finish of the book, but the resolution was downright depressing.
Completely, that was completely NO ROMANCE in this book! That was no courting, no swooning at the same time sighing, no tension, no attractive banter, no sitting on the edges of my seat waiting to look how a disposition is that going to react or respond.
Did I read similar book as everyone else? Why are people giving this 4-5 hit??
This is that nothing like The Selection or The Siren. I will not be reading the one more in the television series, at the same time I do not advise this book to anyone.

Audiobook The Named (The Named #1) by Kiera Cass
I really, really adored the Selection (not many of which the spin off about Americas daughter) so I was shocked to read this brand new book. At the moment I wish I wouldve waited until more people left
Reviews. If youre reading this because you want to hear about an enchanting romance than this is that not the book you.
****spoilers****
I agree with everyone who has misspoke they couldnt connect with or Jameson or Silas. In particular Silas. Jameson she occasionally beheld at the same time when she did look him it was barely to exchange compliments for a couple of minutes then and quit. Silas she had a few random discussions with at the same time somehow felt so in adore she had to abandon her indefinite at the same time comrades at the same time generic for him. I didnt feel truly connected to Silas at all. I didnt even feel frustrated by the ending of the book.
I felt like overall the book barely needed method more details so for you managed connect more successful to all of the manners. Delia Grace was anyone I practically hated once her used to be shades came out. Silas was sour with nothing to him. Jameson was mainly a figurehead (I felt like it shouldve been explained more successful how he went from lady to lady to barely wanting Hollis). Her ancestors needed more explaining as to why they wanted to be a part of royalty so bad at the same time than anyway a offspring couldve data them that Hollis didnt, at the same time why couldnt they have more toddlers to try for a little boy?
Valentina at the same time Hollis were considered practically the only two manners I liked, but even I agree that their fellowship was odd. Valentina flipped from hating Hollis to loving her so quickly, it was hard for it to seem believable.
Overall, I wanted to adore this book but it wholly fell even for me. For a romance novel with two adore interests I wasnt really feeling the adore. Perhaps the younger mass will bite this up, but.

No no no no no
At the moment, don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed it. Up until about 60%. After that it felt rushed, random at the same time heartbreaking. The ending didn’t produced no matter what sense to me at the same time I wondered if that was going to be a 2nd novel as so much didn’t make sense.
I defeated’t read it again at the same time for some reason its left me feeling restless
I feel upset
