Playlist: The Selection Series

Hello everyone!

I want to start sharing playlists I create based on some of my favorite books to share my love of reading with my love of music. They are both major hobbies of mine and I can't imagine living without either of them. For the first playlist, I wanted to do The Selection series by Kiera Cass (but only the first 3 books). These were the first books that really got me into the young adult genre and are some of my favorite books. I'll separate the songs into each book and generally what scene I imagine each song to be in.
