A review by keimre734
Divergent by Veronica Roth
5.0
"In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago world, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is—she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself." - Quote from [b:Divergent|13335037|Divergent (Divergent, #1)|Veronica Roth|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328559506s/13335037.jpg|13155899] book description.
So I was SUPER excited to finally get to read this series! For the most part, I tend to wait until an entire book series has been published before I started reading it so I don't have to wait and wait to get my hands on the next book in the series. I had heard from a lot of people that the [b:Divergent|13335037|Divergent (Divergent, #1)|Veronica Roth|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328559506s/13335037.jpg|13155899] series were great and so far [a:Veronica Roth|4039811|Veronica Roth|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1363910238p2/4039811.jpg] has not let me down! I read over 4oo pages in just two sitting which is unheard of for me since I am a college student and usually have a ton of homework to do.
[a:Veronica Roth|4039811|Veronica Roth|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1363910238p2/4039811.jpg] did an excellent job of creating a strong and independent main female character. These are the types of female characters that I would want my future daughter(s) to read about! The factions were an interesting and new twist on the dystonian novels that are all the rage right now. There were a few shocking twists in the book as well. [a:Veronica Roth|4039811|Veronica Roth|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1363910238p2/4039811.jpg] used these to keep her readers on their toes!
Overall, I would give [b:Divergent|13335037|Divergent (Divergent, #1)|Veronica Roth|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328559506s/13335037.jpg|13155899] by [a:Veronica Roth|4039811|Veronica Roth|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1363910238p2/4039811.jpg] a rating of 5 stars!
