Literally could not put this book down. 

As someone who watched the films first and loved them, I can confidently say the books are SO much better. I loved all the little details and plot points that the film missed and just the description of Tris’ emotions that couldn’t be translated to film. 

One piece of advice I would give if you are reading this after watching the films is that the characters of Tris and especially Four are (in my opinion) very different to the books compared to the films. I would recommend starting the books with this in mind and you will enjoy it and relate to the characters better. 

Even if you haven’t watched the films, oh my goodness I would recommend this book to anyone. Cant wait to read the next one.

 “I want to be brave, and selfless, and smart, and kind, and honest.”

The final series that is part of the OG Big Three Dystopian books. It's Divergent. And ironically, this series has a mixture of the other two series in here. This book has aspects from the Hunger Games, and aspects from The Maze Runner. But, I enjoyed it more than the Maze Runner, although the ending was a bit abrupt.
