Four by Veronica Roth

groovyjenni's review against another edition

5.0

So I read Divergent and was going to start on Insurgent but stopped myself. I saw this Four book and had to see what it was all about. It was awesome seeing the world through Four's eyes. Ross makes a good point though about characters. As a writer, I try to write a POV and sometimes it's the right one and other times it's not. While I loved this indulgence of Four's mind and what happened on his initiation, Tris is a driving force. I'm ready to read Insurgent now!

Better than Allegiant. Not as good as Divergent or Insurgent. It was fine.

Definitely rereading these now, Roth’s growth as a writer is obvious (and impressive). Her more recent stuff really outpaces these in retrospect.

Meh, I really wanted new information. Something to add to the story. It really didn't add a whole lot.

It was nice to dive back into the familiar world and get more insight on Divergent

After reading Allegiant, I lost all the love I had for all the books in the Divergent series. I just don't feel as excited as when I read Divergent and Insurgent, although this book was a lot better than Allegiant and made me remember why I liked this in the first place. Still, I can't give this book more than 3 stars.
