Has anyone read The Selection by Keira Cass, the book Despokhi is holding in today's episode. I read a synopsis


"To live in a palace and compete for the heart of gorgeous Prince Maxon."

The plot it seems interesting for a read, also kind of applicable to all three characters here. Someone on the set is reading that book for sure. 😆


Anyone who has read?

it's a YA dystopian novel. Girls compete to be Prince Maxon's wife. You know like reality show the Bachelorette? The lead heroine is called America. She took part in the competition reluctantly at first but later falls in love with Prince Maxon.

I tried reading it but got bored 😆

PH / CVs must have encouraged her to learn and improvise her acting / mannerism of her character 😛😆

We should have a listen of suggestion for Aishwarya. Genuinely. I have started to feel bad watching her struggle. Mainly, coz she is the weakest link in the show and is practically ruining the show for all of us.

I tried to catch the title but couldn't although the synopsis sounds like a cloaked M & B.

Same here. That's why I asked 😂😂 it sounds interesting in the context of this show and the fact that it's on their set 🤣🤣🤣

After reading the synopsis the Prince in this context sounds more like Samrat for PP. Where she has a lover and she has to decide if she wants to give the prince a chance.

I guess one of the writers could be reading it for inspiration 😆 one of my cousins is a screen writer and worked on a mythological show a few years ago. They had researched and drawn up characters for four years, even paying one guy for playing Krishna for four years so that he doesn't sign up any other show until they go on floors... I can't recall his name or the name of the show 😑

It was on my "want to read" list🤣

Reviews are pretty mixed, but my most trusted reviews gave it 1-2*

Given that, and the fact that Didi was reading it, I removed it from my list🤣🤣🤣
