Allegiant by Veronica Roth
1.0

Oh man. I struggled to finish this one. There's something so prescriptive about the YA genre, and in the first book of the Divergent series Roth does an amazing job of staying away from the pitfalls of that tendency. However, there is a sense of decline in the series in the second book, and in Allegiant, the series is pulled, fully sway, into the spoon-fed type of writing that often floods YA shelves.

I'd recommend only reading the first book, and forgetting the rest exist.
