Right now, I’m actually in between books. I have
heard some great things about some new books that have been Bestsellers. One
that I would really like to try is, Divergent
by Veronica Roth. It seems like it’s the new Hunger Games. The book of the year. And you HAVE to read it,
whoever you are. Well, the truth is I actually started that book last summer. I
just found it so boring. 2 chapters in and I wanted to put it down. I actually
wanted to like this book really bad. But the whole idea of this book, having
groups for different people, didn’t seem appealing to me. It seemed like the
far end of Sci-Fi. But now I’m hearing all these raving reviews and it makes me
want to give this book another try. After all, everybody (or thing) deserves
second chances.
So, far from what I understand this book is about
Tris defining herself. It looks like the main problem in this book is figuring
out who she wants to be. The groups are Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave),
Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). And Tris (formerly known
as Beatrice) is faced with the tough decision of choosing the group she will belong
to. It’s sort of like picking your profession. Anyway, I have high hopes for
this book and I hope I can actually finish it this time.
I have to admit that this book was amazing, since I've read both Divergent and Insurgent. But I would take a break before reading Allegiant if I were you. Trust me, it won't stay pretty throughout the whole trilogy
