Student Book Review - DIVERGENT


 Divergent by Veronica Roth
Do you like reading books with action, adventure, and suspense? Or, do you love reading engaging chapter books? Well congratulation your perfect book has arrived! I loved this book because it had all my favorite attributes of a book. This book is about a girl named Beatrice Prior who lives in Chicago where society is divided into five factions. Each faction is keen to a particular part of a person. Every year, all the sixteen-year olds must choose a faction whom they will dedicate their lives for. For Beatrice, the decision is based upon two things: living with her parents or being herself. So she makes a decision that leaves everybody in shock (including her). During her faction’s tough start Beatrice renames herself Tris. Tris during the initiation has a hard time fitting in her faction. Also she has a secret, one that she hasn’t told anyone because it could mean death As the story goes on, she realizes that this secret would unwind her perfect society and learns that this secret might help save those that she cares about the most or it kill her. Tris reminds me of myself because she is brave like me and she knows how to handle herself. I have never watched the movie version and I have not read the other books in this series. My favorite part in the book is when Tris chooses her faction because it has suspense for what faction she is going to choose.
I gave the rating 5 out of 5 stars because it had a wonderful story with suspense and action.
