“For the first time maybe ever, it didn't matter if I looked beautiful or not. I felt it.�
Scenes from Celeste are just that. Three different short scenes from Celestes Perspective. Which includes The Arrival (meeting America, Marlee and Ashley), The Kiss (Celeste tryng to seduce Maxon) and The Departure (leaving the selection).
Oh boy, I really despised Celeste throughout The Selection series but she won me over in The One. Celeste was the main villain in The Selection series and I gotta admit I loved hating her... but I loved getting to love her even more. I just wish she would have realized all her errors much sooner than she did because I would have loved to have so much more from her. In The Selection we meet this mean, manipulative, vindictive, bitter girl who was there for all the WRONG reasons. But once she realizes all her stupid petting mistakes we get to see a whole other side to her. We get to see her vulnerability and kindness and her chance at redemption. She turns out to be such a wonderfully sweet person and an even better friend to America. I love getting to see Celeste grow out of it and the ending to The One seriously Broke. My. Heart!
Anyways, Scenes from Celeste gives us a better understanding of her actions and I really loved being inside of her head even though they were extremely too damn short! I would have loved having so so much more. I recommend this to all The Selection fans out there :)

I have wanted to read this novella for forever now and I can't believe I have just gotten around to reading it!! This truly did NO4 A-maz-ing! �'s
I have wanted to read this novella for forever now and I can't believe I have just gotten around to reading it!! This truly did NOT disappoint either!
The Homecoming takes place after Last Sacrifice, Rose and Dimitri take a trip back to his home town in Russia. The last time Rose was there it was under horrible circumstances and told his family that Dimitri was a strigoi. So this is the first time Dimitri and Rose are seeing his family after being restored back to a dhampir. It was very sweet and had some touchy moments. But it's not all rainbows and sunshine, there's an adventure and killing of course. Isn't there always killing? Anyway, there is a very old Strigoi King that has been terrorizing and killing humans. Therefore Rose and Dimitri being guardians set off to rid the world of yet another Strigoi.
I always hated the way Rose and Dimitri's family had left things before she left. So it was wonderful seeing the relationships get patched back up. I love Dimitri's family almost as much as I love him and Rose. They are one of my all-time favorite fictional couples :) I love them individually, I love them together and I love this series with a passion! And I gotta say Dimitri is the first fictional characters I fell head over heels for and still am to this day!!!
I 100% recommend every Vampire Academy lover to read this!!!
