Chosen Ones
by Veronica Roth
As someone who really enjoyed the Divergent series until Allegiant, I was skeptical about becoming emotional invested in another group of characters only to have an ending that sucks. I was also a little worried about this book being cliché and overdone. I mean, the title is “Chosen Ones.” Could it be more cliche? But I was pleasantly surprised. The book is slow paced, but very well-written and the pace allows readers to feel more connected to the characters and to understand the relationship the “Chosen Ones” have with each other after saving the world. I really enjoy the intimate details of Sloane’s mind as she deals with PTSD. The ending was good, but it wasn’t amazing. Based on Roth’s other works, I wondered whether this would turn into a series, but to me, the ending tied up any loose ends. Overall, would definitely recommend.
