I enjoyed divergent so was hoping to enjoy insurgent just as much. I felt less connected to the characters this go around, lost all connection with Tobias and their relationship. I didn’t feel connected to any of the characters outside Tris. 

There was one part I got teary eyed when talking about guilt and never being the same person before that. I felt I could relate to that kind of sadness. 

She spent a majority of the book traveling from one faction to another without any real impactful events taking place. 

The buildup of this secret was a little anti climatic for me. Will read the next one though!
