A review by mjvwilbur
Divergent by Veronica Roth
4.0
Trish lives in futuristic dystopic Chicago. The community is divided into 5 factions representing noble values for a person. However, there are the faction-less who live apart but are growing in numbers. Another category is the Divergent who are soon hunted. Its up to Trish to fight for not only her freedom, but freedom for the entire community.
I liked the concept of the story, but I think it could've gone better in plot overall. The plot was predictable leaving nothing to be surprised at. It was like other books in the way Trish deals with her problems like a normal teenage girl. Her crush on Four is too perfect and the fact he likes her as well is unrealistic. People who don't mind a gushy romantic subplot would enjoy it as well as lovers of dystopic books.
