Divergent by Veronica Roth
The books main character Tris has an exublarateing journey. The book is based in a post-apocalyptic world where people are separated into factions based on where they were born, but at the age of sixteen you get to take a test that recommends you to a faction based on your personality. This is where the story begins to take off.
Tris joins the wildest faction that there is, and she joins from the nicest faction, to a faction that is based in combat and military. She meets a man named four along this journey of hers and it slowly starts to become more than just friend ship. I enjoyed this part of the book because the characters sensitive side barely comes out unless she’s around four. The book is also very sad many of the friends she meets along the way die. There’s also an evil faction that her brother joins at first he didn’t know about the iniquity, but later he learned that they had malicious causes in the long run.
The friends she makes and the journey she goes on are both very thought-provoking. A lot of people like this book but personally I adore it. The book is indeed not for the faint of heart and it’s very sad I cannot express enough how sad it is. During this process of the training she makes a lot of enemies, but that doesn’t stop her she does whatever it takes to get through the training.
Heart beating and blood pumping, adrenaline rushing and death defying, are some of the only things that can describe this book along with, Tears flowing and jaw dropping, I honestly and earnestly love this book. The excursion she goes on and friends she makes during the book are both extraordinary and I can’t wait to start reading the second one.
