Divergent, Insurgent and Truth within.

Tried my best to give less spoilers!


Recently I've read the Divergent series, and sadly it hasn't been completed so you wont expect and ending.
In the book, it tells you about the future and about a city that was divided into sections because of the problems we are being faced with today. There are 5 sections and what they blamed: The Dauntless blamed cowardice, the Abnegation blamed selfishness, the Erudite blamed ignorance, the Candor blamed duplicity and finally, the Amity blamed war and fighting. Each section serves a purpose in maintaining a safe city but noone know what's ahead of the gates that protect the city and why they need to be protected.

At the age of sixteen, you finish your studies and are given a test to determine which section you will be best in. Beatrice is from Abnegation and has always had an eye on the dauntless though she doesn't consider herself one. When she takes the test, she soon realizes that she isn't fit to be an Abnegation after all. What will she do and which side will she take? And how will that effect her future?

Overall I thought that Veronica Roth had a range of vocabulary and structure for a 14-17 year olds range and was able to relate to make the feelings, movements and thoughts for Four, Tris and everyone else in the book seem real. I think it is one of my favourite books and I can't wait to read it again! Definitely recommend it!
