Omg! This book was everything! I think I hoped so much for the character’s to achieve their goals that I felt I was in the story! There were times where I was just so sad for Tris that I couldn’t move. There were also times where I felt pure joy and this book brought the best of me into the real world! This book really makes you feel for this characters! This is a must read!

Do not let how gory it is stop you! You will have to push through a lot of blood and abuse, but I promise it is worth the read!

Insurgent was amazing, never down time while reading, your constantly engaged and plot twists every chapter, really really good 
100 percent recommend.. a little violence which I skipped a little but plot is great but a little heartbreaking and you really feel like your in the book

I made the mistake of watching the film first which grossly oversimplified the book. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the second half / final third of the book largely differed from the film, and I really enjoyed the ending.

That being said the book could have easier been much shorter if less time was dedicated to relationships between minor side characters and to Tris’ grief. Overall an enjoyable YA read.
