Divergent

Divergent is an amazing book about a world where one choice can transform your #|whole life. Literally. There are five factions, Abnegation -known for selflessness- Amity -known for peace- Candor -known for honesty- Dauntless -known for bravery- and finally Erudite -known for intelligence.- Beatrice and her brother Caleb are 16 and have taken the aptitiude test, which gives you an idea of which faction you'd be suited for. Beatrice's comes out as Divergent, a dangerous and uncommon thing to be. She could be Abnegation, her home, Dauntless, or Erudite. She immediately rejects Erudite, because of its reputation. Finally she chooses Dauntless. Beatrice longs for something different. So, she changes her name to Tris, toughens up, and undergoes training with other transfers. This training teaches you how to fight and how to face your fears. She also falls in love their instructor, Four, and they both get the feeling that something dangerous is going on. Especially for her home faction, Abnegation...but Dauntless is her home now. Or is it? Being a Divergent could be a beautiful and terrible thing. Oh my gosh! This book is fantastic! I quite literally started out by my pool and was only on page 37, when I sat down with it later that night and accidentally finished the book very late because I just couldn't put it down! I'd lay it on my #|bedside table and lay thinking about it until I picked it up again and read more. It is a thrilling book and there is never a boring spot. I highly reccommend this book and the entire trilogy for that matter. I can't wait to read Insurgent!

Athena76: Here's where we might take different paths! I read this, but I didn't like it. There was something that just didn't ring true for me about the characters, and the "world building" wasn't enough for me. I'm SO glad you liked it, though. I thought the different factions were a bit strange, but not in an interesting way (for me). When I found myself not enjoying it much, I searched the internet for a negative review, and it was really hard to find! So many people have liked the book. Oh well, I must be weird, or maybe I was in a weird mood when I read it. Have you finished //Insurgent// yet? -Hoodzie123 **

Hoodzie123: Don't ever feel weird for not liking a book. Books and your take on them have nothing to do with whether you're weird or not; it just didn't suit YOU. And yes, I did. Yesterday. (today's Friday) :) -Athena76

Athena76: Good advice about liking a book or not - and by the way, glad you got a FEW cupcakes!! Thanks for offering to volunteer here, too. :) Have a great weekend - it was fun visiting with you today. -Hoodzie123

Hoodzie123: Thanks! (They were awesome!) I'm super excited about volunteering and working in the "store". Thanks and you too! :) - Athena76
