Let me just start off this review by saying what beautiful cover art this book has. (See above) I don't know how Veronica Roth came up with the idea but it's simply gorgeous. Now to talk about the actual content of this book. I love how much detail she puts into her books, you just feel like you're a part of their world. I love how three-dimensional her characters are. They really feel like people.
The way she writes the book just toys with your emotions. I've laughed and cried so many times throughout this book. Especially in the part where Peter and Al "kidnap" Tris and do despicable things that should never happen to a person. I actually cried myself to sleep.(That may seem a little overkill, but I really get into my books, ok?)
