Oh my goodness! This book brought back all the pain, but all the laughter and good times as well. It took place before the worst of things happened, but also after. It was interesting to see their love story from Tobias’ perspective. Definitely read this!

This takes place in a dystopian society that goes to war so there is much that is not the way it should be. There are still less deaths than in the other stories and it’s really the mildest of the series.elija_20's review against another edition

The premise of this book is simple: Divergent from Four’s perspective. This meant that even with his backstory, you sort of knew what was going to happen. But it was still enjoyable and detailed. The only ‘problem’ I have with it is the scenes Roth decided to tell from Four’s perspective (meaning the 3 scenes at the end of the book, not in The Traitor). Maybe they have a deeper meaning but they just seemed like really random scenes to choose and I would have liked to see more/different scenes. But really, I can’t complain. This is a really cool idea for a book and was really interesting to read.
