Everyone enjoys a good love story now and then, Divergent by Veronica Roth, had just enough of everything to make this an enjoyable read for all audiences. You could say that Roth has a rich future ahead of her seeming that her first novel took off tremendously. Divergent is the first book in a palm sweating and heart-crunching trilogy.

 When diving into this book I was instantly obsessed with the main character, Beatrice “Tris” Prior because who doesn’t love an insecure and awkward teenage girl. Growing up, the main character was apart of the faction whose morals were selflessness and helping others called Abnegation. The population has a huge gathering to  choose their factions for those who come of age. Tris intentionally separating from her family into a different faction is just the beginning of this drama filled thriller. Throughout the book Tris is trying to figure out whom exactly she is, especially after finding out she does not belong to just one faction. The inner struggle ways heavy on Tris who now is crushing on her gorgeous trainer, Tobias aka Four. Just as Tris is getting comfortable in her new home with new friends and is finally a member of dauntless, disaster hits.


Brimming with plot twists and drama there’s no question why Divergent was made into a movie. The book is so vivid with imagery and detail it’s not hard to see what exactly Roth was trying to portray.
