So when Eagle Elite University announces its annual scholarship lottery, Tracey jumps at the opportunity to secure their future and enters. She isn't expecting much-but then she wins. And life as she knows it will never be same . . . The students at Eagle Elite are unlike any she's ever met . . . and they refuse to make things easy for her. There's Nixon, gorgeous, irresistible, and leader of a group that everyone fears: The Elect. Their rules are simple. 1. Do not touch The Elect. 2. Do not look at The Elect. 3. Do not speak to The Elect.

5 StarsOH.MY.GOD!!!!!! WHY DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG TO READ THIS?!!!!I had no idea what Elite was about, I just knew it was a Dyken book and figured, light and fuffy? Well, it was so MUCH MORE!It was adorableIt was intriguingIt was grippingIt was action packIt was intense!I LOVED IT!!!Tracey got a scholarship into a very prestigious college. Its not your typical college, they wear uniforms, theres a class system with key cards and cliques. I actually just watched a Korean Drama that had a similarOMG! This book was I can't even begin to describe how much I loved it!I saw this book a few weeks ago on Amazon and fell in love with the cover. Then I read the description. I was hooked. I was dying to read it. ButI couldnt. I had a plana book plan. I had it planned out (through buddy reads) what I was going to read. So I put this off. But it wasnt far from my mind. I thought about it daily. Then, I finished a book that was mentally exhausting. I could feel a book funk coming on. As I was
I was hooked early on but it all became too much for me.This has got to be the craziest most OTT book Ive ever read. Its totally bizarre with more holes than Swiss cheese.Nixon being cruel apparently for the sake of it. Tracey crying her way through everything. That girl really needs to buy shares in Kleenex.Ultimately it came down to children playing at being mafia and it drove me crazy.Okay maybe Im being harsh. A lot of people love this book and if youre one of them well agree to disagree.
Ok, here's the thing - this book was candy. Moderately tasty candy, more than a little improbable candy, but you know, sometimes you just want candy. I feel like it's more of a 2.5 - while the plotting pushes me towards a 2, the fact that I read it in one sitting pushes me towards a 3. After typing everything out, I'm giving it the 2, mostly because if someone walked up to me and asked me what I thought of this book, I would say, "It was ok." Those are the exact words that would leave my lips.
3.5 stars!Why?I ve read Rachel Van Dyken's books a long times ago and i liked them.A lot.I needed a bit of a distraction, so honestly this was collecting dust on my Kindle for ages and this might sound stupid but it was actually the first thing i clicked on in the dark while wanted to read a bit in bed.Fuck it, call it a sign.A destiny, who cares...*shrugs* lolThe mission was accomplished, i had fun reading this...It wasn't perfect, in fact i had a feeling i was reading a remake of Twilight
This. Was. Awesome. Picked it up around 9pm last night, didn't put it down or go to sleep until I finished. I couldn't! The heroine might be a bit of an airhead at times but other than that, this is addictive, intense, angsty and has so much goodness to suck you in. I need to start Elect NOW! Thankfully I already have a copy on my shelf. I feel like this is going to be a serious, series binge read.
