"One choice will define you.
What if your whole world was a lie?
What if a single revelation—like a single choice—changed everything?
What if love and loyalty made you do things you never expected?
The faction-based society that Tris Prior once believed in is shattered—fractured by violence and power struggles and scarred by loss and betrayal. So when offered a chance to explore the world past the limits she’s known, Tris is ready. Perhaps beyond the fence, she and Tobias will find a simple new life together, free from complicated lies, tangled loyalties, and painful memories.
But Tris’s new reality is even more alarming than the one she left behind. Old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless. Explosive new truths change the hearts of those she loves. And once again, Tris must battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature—and of herself—while facing impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice, and love."

Veronica Roth ripped my heart out! The end of the book was totally unexpected and absolutely heartbreaking. I had to re-read it a few times to make sure I wasn't just really tired. As much as it broke my heart, Veronica Roth wrote something realistic and ended the book with some finality which I really admire. I really liked the message behind the book and just overall enjoyed it. I think everyone should read this series. I personally like it much better than Hunger Games, so if you liked Hunger Games, definitely try the Divergent series.
I gave this book a 5/5 on my GoodReads.

I agree, the end was pretty heartbreaking. But it had to happen. I'm glad for the closure, although from other reviews not everyone agrees.
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting for my hold to come in from the library. Now I'm even more excited to read it.
