Four: A Divergent Collection by Veronica Roth
4.0
3.85* for not enough Four
4.25* for what this book gave us about the character and how this was a well written book and an easy read.
Yes, two ratings... am I cheating? Goodreads, update your ratings, stat! They're lacking!!
From the moment, almost, I saw Four in the movie Divergent, I have been intrigued by him and found him interesting. His backstory and the glimpses we got of it made me really curious so, of course, when this was released, I wanted to get my hands on it and... what do you know, found it twice at the thrift store (and bought it twice as I didn't remember I already bought it once *laughs*
I loved reading about him pre-choosing Dauntless and 2 years before meeting Tris and the whole Divergent issue with the Erudite/Dauntless shenanigans. We delved more into his personna before, during and after the choosing and got to know more about his story and who he is. Then again, I was still left wanting more. This felt too short. Of course, this is all based prior to and during Divergent so of course there is more to tell but once Tris came in the picture and they became an item... he kinda took a step back... somehow.
It was still a really nice touch and I totally enjoyed this read. It was easy and fun and overall well done. Four (Tobias), is a character you want to get to know more about and this did the job... and yes, broken record... not quite enough for me.
