Ok, so there was some kind of reason for the moronic faction system, even if it's not exactly logical, but at least there is one. The writing went downhill in this one though, the pacing is a bit weird, we're thrown from factionless vs factions to genetically pure people vs genetically damaged people to wait-who-the-frak-decides-that-anyway? vs we-do-damnit-coz-we're-ubermensch! and somewhere along the way I just stopped caring about the plot. Which is unfortunate, because this book alternates between Tris and Tobias, and it becomes painfully obvious that they sound exactly the same, so it's not like it was a fantastical character study.
Also, characters were dropping like flies throughout this series, but we cannot have sexy times! There is one decidedly glossed over scene in this one, but really, hormone charged teenagers never sneak off for a bit of nookie? :P It's like Hollywood morals, you can maim and kill however many people you like, but be forever damned if you have sex. *sigh*
I know a lot of people hated the last of the Hunger Games books, but that ending felt a lot more realistic and true to the series than this did.
