I am going to write my own silly summary here because the summary on the book is so horrifically spoil-filled that I can't bear to subject you lot to it.
So the Selection is set in a unrealistic future where rational State actors made very irrational decisions that resulted in a dystopian society. But no matter! Because every n number of years, there is a super special ball that satisfies the people's need for fulfillment. 
And I can't say anything else about it without giving away blindingly obvious spoilers.

That right there is Makayla sass. But really.

The Selection is a lottery. A lottery of girls, sent of to the palace to contend for the hand of the Prince, Maxon. It may not be Hunger Games brutal, but never underestimate the power of hormonal girls in large groups.
