A MEMOIR BY THE YOUNGEST RECIPIENT OF THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

As seen on Netflix with David Letterman

"I come from a country that was created at midnight. When I almost died it was just after midday."

When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley in Pakistan, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education.

On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, when she was fifteen, she almost paid the ultimate price. She was shot in the head at point-blank range while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive.

Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she became a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest nominee ever for the Nobel Peace Prize.

I AM MALALA is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, of a father who, himself a school owner, championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of brave parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons.

I AM MALALA will make you believe in the power of one person's voice to inspire change in the world.

The Heir is the fourth novel of The Selection Series, released on May 5, 2015. The Heir is from a new perspective, Maxon's and America's daughter, Princess Eadlyn. Many known characters and new ones appear in the story.

, a sequel to The Heir, was released on May 3, 2016. It is the final full-sized novel in The Selection Series, and the end of Eadlyn's Selection.

Twenty years ago, America Singer entered the Selection and won Prince Maxon's heart. Now the time has come for Princess Eadlyn to hold a Selection of her own. Eadlyn doesn't expect her Selection to be anything like her parents' fairy-tale love story. But as the competition begins, she may discover that finding her own happily ever after isn't as impossible as she always thought.

Back-Cover (Amazon.com)Princess Eadlyn has grown up hearing endless stories about how her mother and father met. Twenty years ago, America Singer entered the Selection and won the heart of Prince Maxon-and they lived happily ever after. Eadlyn has always found their fairy-tale story romantic, but she has no interest in trying to repeat it. If it were up to her, she'd put off marriage for as long as possible. But a princess's life is never entirely her own, and Eadlyn can't escape her very own Selection-no matter how fervently she protests.

Eadlyn doesn't expect her story to end in romance. But as the competition begins, one entry may just capture Eadlyn's heart, showing her all the possibilities that lie in front of her... and proving that finding her own happily ever after isn't as impossible as she's always thought.

The book begins with 18 year old Eadlyn explaining that she was born seven minutes before her twin brother, Ahren. Previously, it would be his right to be the heir to the throne of Illéa, but their parents King Maxon Schreave and Queen America Schreave changed the law and made it possible for Eadlyn to be the first female ruler of the country, something that often overwhelms her, but also makes her feel powerful. Maxon and America have two more sons: Kaden, who is 14, and Osten, who is 10.

Her father has eliminated the castes, but although people were initially relieved, many citizens begin to riot all over the country due to post-caste discrimination. To distract the attention of the public until they can figure out a way to fix the situation, her parents suggest that Eadlyn should go through her own Selection. Eadlyn strongly opposes to the idea, as she doesn't feel ready for marriage and she doesn't want to love and be married with a stranger. However, she reluctantly accepts to have a three month Selection, for the sake of the country's entertainment, and of her parents, who agree that it's all right if she doesn't choose anyone in the end.

Eventually, 35 men are randomly selected, among them Kile Woodwork, son of Carter and Marlee Woodwork. He strongly rejects his selection, insisting that he didn't actually apply for it. However, since his name was announced publicly, he is forced to participate, much to his and Eadlyn's resentment. The two dislike each other, even though they have been raised together in the palace.

During the first interview with the Selected Suitors, some of the Selected catch Eadlyn's attention, like the polite Hale Garner, the over-confident Ean Cabel and the always-happy Henri Jaakoppi from Swendway who can only speak limited-English, and participates in the Selection with the help of his translator, Erik. To impress the country, she organizes a parade through the city, so that people can admire her and the Selected Men. The parade is ruined when some people from the crowd throw food to her, insulting her and demanding jobs. Eadlyn starts to realize that part of the population dislikes her, so Ahren suggests that she should not appear so distant and scowling, especially in the photos of the Selection.

To pique the people's interest, Eadlyn publicly eliminates 11 of the Suitors, a rather drastic cut. Unfortunately, the papers criticize her again as a smug, strict princess, uninterested in her own Selection. Deciding then to give some romance to the public, even if she isn't interested in these men, Eadlyn asks from Kile, the only Selected Man she knows, to kiss her in front of a hidden photographer. The kiss leaves her unsettled, as she didn't expect to like it so much.

Eadlyn then goes on a date with Hale. They talk about his life and family, but when he asks about her fashion sketches, a hobby of her, she is afraid of opening herself to him and she leaves. She has another date with Baden Trains, playing music together. She asks from Kile one more time to kiss her, insisting however that she doesn't like him and she won't choose him. She later goes on a movie date with Jack Ranger. When he touches her inappropriately against her will, she panics and kicks him out of the Selection.

During a horse riding date with Ean, he understands that Eadlyn doesn't actually want the Selection. He proposes to her that, if she finds no one suitable in the group, she can choose him. While he can settle in a comfortable life as her prince consort, she will be free to reign however she wants without ever loving him, as he believes love to be overrated.

Later, Eadlyn cooks in the palace kitchen with Kile, Burke Renn, Fox Wesley, Henri and Erik. However, Burke gets angry when Henri, being a professional cook, makes an exceptional dessert, while Burke's appetizers with Fox were mediocre. He punches Fox and accidentally pushes Eadlyn to the floor during the fight, while Kile and Henri try to suppress him. Erik takes Eadlyn away from the brawl and into her room. He reveals that his given name is Eikko. She thanks him for his help and as they bond their hands, she realizes his kind nature.

Burke is sent home. Eadlyn talks with Fox and after learning about his poor background, she decides to let him stay, as he wasn't really responsible for the fight. Eadlyn has one more make out session with Kile, but this time she talks with him about the Selection, realizing that it's easy to share her thoughts with him and admitting that she is glad he was selected.

Eadlyn learns that people in the poorer provinces are uprising to end the monarchy, as they didn't benefit from the caste dissolution and they think that the King doesn't care about them. Later that night, Eadlyn finds Henri cooking in the kitchen. After cooking together, they share a hesitant, romantic kiss. However, Eadlyn is still afraid of falling in love, although she finally realizes that she really likes some of these men.

Baden announces to Eadlyn he wants to leave from the Selection, feeling ignored by her and displeased that she didn't pay attention earlier to his date invitation. He accuses her of being pushy and selfish. Hurt by his words, she cries in her room, realizing that probably a lot of people have this opinion of her. At that moment, Erik appears and comforts her. He mentions that Henri thought she was upset by their kiss, but Eadlyn assures him that Henri is one of the kindest people she had ever met. Erik reveals that Henri admires her and desires to be her husband, but then he adds that Henri's language barrier will be a long-term obstacle if she develops feelings for him, too. He offers to be her friend and she happily accepts.

Eadlyn talks with Kile who comforts her, both of them admitting that they now want to participate in the Selection, even though she is still afraid to open herself to the boys. As he is studying architecture, he reveals to her a design idea to create small houses for industrial workers in the poorer provinces.

Eadlyn invites to the palace the French princess Camille, daughter of Queen Daphne and heir to the throne of France. Camille is in a relationship with Ahren, the two of them have been completely in love for years. This makes Eadlyn uncomfortable and slightly jealous that she has never felt such love, and that Camille holds an equal standing to her in Ahren's life. Even more, Camille is always and effortlessly kind and cheerful and people love her, exactly the characteristics that Eadlyn wishes to have.

During a party made in honor of Camille, Eadlyn finds Erik, looking handsome in his formal suit. After confiding to him her thoughts about Camille, he reassures her that she shouldn't want to imitate the French princess, because being herself is more than enough. Holding her hand and hesitantly stroking it, he admits that he didn't put his name in the Selection, because he is not someone important, but Eadlyn insists that "he is Eikko": being himself is enough too. She later dances happily with Henri, noticing though that Erik watches them with a sad smile.

Eadlyn advises Ahren to break up with Camille, stating that maybe she is not the one for him, making him sad. During the dinner next night, Gavril Fadaye announces to Maxon, America and Eadlyn that Ahren eloped with Camille: they had left Illéa and secretly got married in France, after Queen Daphne gave them her official approval. Eadlyn runs to her room, where she finds a letter from Ahren.

In the letter, after begging for her and their parents' forgiveness, Ahren explains that he decided to marry Camille, after Eadlyn told him to leave her. He realized that his sister disliked his girlfriend only because she was afraid that Camille would " steal" Ahren from Eadlyn. Eadlyn wanted her brother so much in her life, asking so many things from him that she would maybe even force him to take the throne for her sake. So, much as he loved his sister, he eventually chose his soul mate. He points to Eadlyn that while Camille is open to her people and handles her power with humility, Eadlyn keeps people at distance and wields her power like a sword. As a result, many provinces don't want her as their future ruler and she is one of the reasons they are now in a riot. Thus, Ahren advises her to open herself to her people, to be brave and feminine at the same time and above all to find love in her life.

Eadlyn is angry and hurt by his words and his departure, but when she goes to her parents' room to inform them about the letter, she finds photos of them during their own Selection, their wedding and the birth of their children. Eadlyn recognizes that her father had modeled this room as a shrine of his love for her mother. Fully realizing now the love her parents share, she can understand why Ahren chose his girlfriend over his family.

At that moment though, she learns that her mother has had a heart attack, after hearing about Ahren's elopement. She runs to the hospital wing, where she finds her father crying and General Leger comforting him, both of them hoping for the best. Marlee, Kaden, May and the Selected Men also come to pray for America's recovery. Afraid of losing her mother and after seeing all those people around her and the bonds they share with each other, Eadlyn finally realizes the importance of love in her life. She decides that she wants to find in the Selection someone who will love her, stating that at the end of the Selection, she " will have a ring on her finger."

Characters

"By seven tiny minutes I beat my brother, Ahren, into the world, so the throne that ought to have been his was mine. Had I been born a generation earlier, it wouldn't have mattered. Ahren was the male, so Ahren would have been the heir. Alas, Mom and Dad couldn't stand to watch their firstborn be stripped of a title by an unfortunate but rather lovely set of breasts. So they changed the law, and the people rejoiced, and I was trained day by day to become the next ruler of Illéa. What they didn't understand was that their attempts to make my life fair seemed rather unfair to me." - Eadlyn at the beginning of The Heir

"You two are practically a fairy tale." - Eadlyn about her parents' love story

"I'm not sure anyone knows what they're looking for until they find it." - Eadlyn

"There are some things you don't learn about yourself until you let someone else into the most intimate places of your heart." - Ahren to Eadlyn

"I'm not sure if fate or destiny is real. But I can tell you that sometimes the very thing you've been hoping for will walk through the door, determined to fend you off. And still, somehow, you will find that you are enough." -King Maxon to Eadlyn

"Kile leaned down, lips meeting mine, holding them there. Then his lips parted, and closed, and parted again. I drew a breath in the moment between kissing, sensing he would come back again. He did and thank goodness, because I hadn't been kissed like this before and I needed more. The few times I've kissed boys were rushed, sloppy moments hiding in a coat room or behind a statue, but this with so much air around us and no one coming to check on me was different. [...] He pressed his mouth to mine again and I was so surprised to get another kiss like that. It felt like my bones were turning into mush. I wrapped my fingers up into his hair, shocked at myself for having the urge to hold him in that pose all night." - Eadlyn in her kissing scene with Kile Woodwork

"I closed the distance between us and placed a hand on his cheek. He stared into my eyes as if he discovered something truly valuable, something rare that he might never see again. I nodded slowly and he lowered his lips to mine. I pressed my lips into his trying to tell him without words that this was okay, that I wanted him to hold me. And finally, after a moment of hesitation, he responded. He held me like I was delicate, like if his grip was too tight I'd crumble. His kisses were the same way. Only now instead of being driven by fear they were motivated by what felt like reverence. It was an affection almost too beautiful to endure." - Eadlyn in her kissing scene with Henri Jaakoppi

"I grew up knowing I would be queen one day. Turns out, it only takes seven minutes to become the heir. That's the difference between my twin brother Ahren and me. After that came Kaden and Osten. Together we're just a normal family, well, except that we live in a palace, and my parents were practically a fairytale. Everyone knows the Selection brought them together, and now it's my turn. I don't know if I can live up to their story, but if I've learned anything from my parents, it's that happily ever after has a way of surprising you." -Eadlyn's narration at the Official Book Trailer of The Heir

"Kile's hair flopped across his eyes as he looked over at me. He was in desperate need of a cut and a shave, and his shirt was too big for him. I didn't know who I was more embarrassed for: him for looking so sloppy or my family for having seen with such a disaster." -Eadlyn as she describes Kile's look

"I only have one heart and I'm saving it." -Eadlyn to Gavril Fadaye

"It was asparagus... He literally punched someone over a vegetable." -Eadlyn to Kile about Burke Renn

"I started laughing, thinking back to the other night in my room. It had seemed so alien when Kile wanted to talk to me, but I wasn't completely sure why I thought that now. I could have had a new outlet, a new perspective this whole time." -Eadlyn about Kile

"Looking over at him, at his hitched-up smile, I was able to push away everything for a minute. It felt like the Selection wasn't even happening just then. I was a girl with a boy. And I knew what I wanted to do with that boy." -Eadlyn about Kile

The Elite is the second book in The Selection Series and the main trilogy by Kiera Cass, preceded by The Selection and followed by . It was released on April 23, 2013.

Thirty-five girls came to the palace to compete in The Selection. All but six have been sent home. And only one will get to marry Prince Maxon and be crowned princess of Illéa.

America still isn't sure where her heart lies. When she's with Maxon, she's swept up in their new and breathless romance, and can't dream of being with anyone else. But whenever she sees Aspen standing guard around the palace, she is overcome with memories of the life they planned to share. With the group narrowed down to the Elite, the other girls are even more determined to win Maxon over-and time is running out for America to decide.

Just when America is sure she's made her choice, a devastating loss makes her question everything again. And while she's struggling to imagine her future, the violent rebels that are determined to overthrow the monarchy are growing stronger and their plans could destroy her chance at any kind of happy ending.

The book starts off with America and Prince Maxon on a date together at night in the garden, but a guard tells them that it would be wise of them to go inside soon.

America becomes a threat not only to Maxon and the kingdom, but to all of Illéa. The castle is attacked again by the rebels and a new threat from New Asia arrives, in which Elise negotiates with her connections to stop it.

America becomes eager to know what Halloween is, so Maxon takes her to a secret room full of banned books and a computer. To make America happy, Maxon decides to hold a ball for Halloween, inviting the Elite's family and requiring everyone to wear costumes.

The morning following the ball, America is awakened by her maids, who tell her to get dressed in dark garments. America follows her maids and discovers that Marlee was caught having an affair with the palace guard Carter Woodwork the night of the ball. As punishment, the two are sentenced to be caned 15 times and stripped of their castes to Eights, the lowest of the low. During the caning, America is unable to stand watching her best friend suffer and tries to free her friend. America is taken by two guards to her room. After the punishment is carried out, Maxon goes to visit America in her room. As he is apologizing, America blames him for not doing anything about it.

Later on, Maxon takes America to the princess's room, where she finds Marlee, who works as a maid in the palace's kitchen. Marlee tells America that she apologized to Maxon for having an affair and says that she loves Carter. Maxon lightens the punishment for both Marlee and Carter by having their caste number lowered to Six and allowing them to work in the palace. Marlee asks America to forgive Maxon, because he wasn't able to do anything. Marlee also adds that she hopes America wins the Selection.

Upon going to the secret library again, America borrows one of Gregory Illéa's diaries with Maxon's permission, just as long as she doesn't tell anyone. As America reads the book, she discovers that the caste system was just invented by Gregory in order to rule over the people. He then changes the democratic government into a monarchy, in which he is king and forces his daughter Katherine to marry an old man so that the his power will become stronger than before.

The rebels return the next morning while the Elites and their families are outside. Instead of going inside the palace, a confused America runs towards the woods and climbs up a tree. After a few minutes, she sees a girl and a boy talking to each other while carrying a lot of books stolen from the palace. The boy leaves and the girl was about to follow when she drops a book in front of the tree America is in. As she picked the book up, the girl sees America. However, instead of raising the alarm, the girl bows at her and runs away, surprising America. After a few hours, America climbs down the tree and runs back to the palace. She is founded by Aspen and taken back.

Later, America discovers that the rebels who took all those books really want Gregory Illéa's diary, which America has in her possession. Meanwhile, Maxon is secretly making pleasurable interactions with the other Elites, making America more jealous.

When walking through the palace, America sees Maxon with Celeste. America becomes hurt and was about to walk away when Maxon catches her and America runs away to her room. A few minutes later, Maxon goes to visit America but she is disgusted of what he had done, and believes that the only one left for her is Aspen.

In the days that follow, America and the other Elites go to Silvia to continue their lessons. Silvia tells them they will have to work on a presentation in which they will debate a topic on live television. America becomes eager to help the people but is unsure of what her debate topic should be. When reading Gregory's diary, she comes up with a debate topic. On presentation day, America shares what is inside the diary and suggests to eliminate the caste system. In the middle of America's speech, however, it seems that the king cut off her presentation. King Clarkson is enraged and confused as to how America knows about how the caste system was formed. Maxon saves America by telling his father that he brought America with him into the secret library. The king is even more furious with America and the queen shakes her head at her in disappointment.

While walking past the medical room of the palace, Maxon exits the room carrying a box. At that moment, the rebels attack the palace once again. Maxon leads America to a secret room that is not as large as the royal escape room, but still safe. America notices that Maxon's back is bleeding and he is forced to show and tell America that his father whipped his back from anger at America. America asks Maxon what the other scars on his back are from, but quickly apologizes for being nosy. Maxon says that it's fine and explains that it's from things he had said or done-or even known. America then asks Maxon about Celeste and Kriss. Maxon admits to her that he has taken a liking to Kriss and that Celeste has been flirting with him. America confesses to Maxon that she has feelings for him, but was too afraid to bring it up because of what has been happening. Maxon also admits that he was planning on proposing to her the night of the Halloween Ball, but became discouraged. America says that she would've said yes if he had asked. The two spend the next few hours together until they are found by the palace guards.

Near the end of the novel, believing that Maxon is going to eliminate her, America prepares to leave the palace and tells her maids about her departure and asks them to assist Kriss. They accept and say farewell. As America is about to leave the palace, Maxon stops her by telling her that he is allowing her to stay in the Selection, despite what she had done, and warns her about his father's challenge, then leaves with Kriss. As America goes upstairs to her room, she comes face-to-face with King Clarkson, who says that she is nothing special and tells her, " Trust me when I say that you do not want to be my enemy." America returns to her room and her maids are surprised but happy that she is still in the Selection. The novel ends with the four of them beginning to plan how America will win the Selection.

Characters

How did I, America Singer-a Five, a nobody-fall for Maxon Schreave-a One, the One? - America Singer about her feelings for Prince Maxon

It wasn't like I made his world better. It was like I was his world. It wasn't some explosion; it wasn't fireworks. It was a fire, burning slowly from the inside out. - America Singer about Prince Maxon

"Trust me when I say that you do not want to be my enemy." - King Clarkson to America Singer

"You've changed me forever. And I'll never forget you." - Prince Maxon to America Singer

"I know when she holds me, it's the crown she pulls close to her heart." - Prince Maxon about Celeste Newsome

According to Kiera Cass, during the editing stage of The Elite, she had to take out "the whole middle of The Elite twice where America was poisoned and thought Maxon was doing mean stuff and it was all dramatic, but sleepy and wrong." These plot lines didn't make it to the final book.

The dress for The Elite was fuchsia, but then it was digitally altered into orangeish red.
