It definitely feels rushed at the end, trying to pack too much into the last few chapters. I also , don’t like books that don’t wrap up at the end, even when there are more books in the series

I’m a dystopian sucker so naturally I enjoyed Divergent. 

I enjoy the concept of the different factions. I also enjoyed Tris and Tobias’s relationship growth throughout the book.

To me, the book started interesting, but then as it went on, it became less interesting

I personally didn’t love the book I found it very slow in the middle of it and the ending is just insane (so much happens in like 50 pages)

I was scared this would be too much like The Hunger Games, but it was unique and Roth told her own story and message. The world-building was exquisite, and the plot twists and surprises had me gasping out loud. My only critique was Tris (the main character) was hard to relate to, but other than that the book was wonderful!
