"Allegiant" by Veronica Roth

Warning: This is the last book in a trilogy if you haven't the first two books you may not want to read this.

Allegiant by Veronica Roth got some seriously hateful reviews. I understand why some people were upset by certain things in the book, but if you can over look the emotionally traumatizing parts of it, it's still amazing. It's a very well written first person perspective book. The only thing that differed between this book and the first two books is that it has two perspectives. One chapter was Tobias's view, and the next was Beatrice's view, however; this just made me love Veronica's novel even more. 



Allegiant picks up where Insurgent leaves off. Beatrice is locked in a cell awaiting a trial from the factionless members. The factions have been completely taken over and disassembled by Evelyn and her people. The biggest secret of all time has just been released. Evelyn chooses to ignore it. She wants nothing to do with the outside world, however; Beatrice & her friends want to go. They want to join the Allegiant and get out of Evelyn's dictatorship like grasp before another war breaks out. A war now between the faction lovers and the people who were never accepted by them. What's really beyond the border? Was all of the secret revealed or will there be more to it? They're running out of patience and out time to find out. If they're going to go, they have to go now. Time. Will there ever be enough of it to amend family issues or is there a line drawn in which some matters are simply unforgivable?




 I'll be honest the twist at the end got me. Like I said, I get why people were upset, but I don't get why they just hated the book. I thought the route Veronica chose to go with the story was realistic, and beautifully painful. It was hard for me to process everything at first. I think I was just in denial,but I think her choice made me respect more as an author, because she, herself  became dauntless. Her decision was unbelievably brave. She knew what she wanted. Fan response, and she definitely got it.Divergent Trilogy is a must read!

"Insurgent" by Veronica Roth

Warning: If you haven't read Divergent the first to this trilogy, you may not want to read this review. 

 Insurgent by Veronica Roth is the second book in a trilogy. It's another first person perspective book that I really love. The suspense builds higher and higher with every page.
      
 This book picks up right where Divergent left off. Beatrice wakes from a nightmare about the massacre that took place in the Abnegation faction. She and the other survivors are staying with Amity. The factions are on the brink of war, but Amity chooses to stay out of it. Beatrice hears Marcus tell Johanna, the Amity's leader, that the Abnegation leaders died protecting a very important secret. She's determined to find out what it is. Amity's peaceful refuge doesn't stay peaceful for long. The Erudites and Dauntless traitors want the Abnegation survivors. They want the Divergent. A gun fight breaks out and Beatrice and her friends make a narrow escape, losing some people on the way. They must determine the next plan of action which leads to the biggest betrayal no one would have ever expected & the revealing of a secret that could destroy the factions. Forever.

This, just like the first book should not be started late at night, because you won't want to put it down. There's so much suspense that builds up in it. Veronica Roth definitely knows how to suck readers in. You literally want to laugh when the characters laugh, and cry when they cry. It's so easy to put yourself into her books. I couldn't read it fast enough. I had to know what the secret was, and if all my favorite characters would live long enough to be in the next book. The unexpected twists and the betrayal. Oh the betrayal! My heart physically ached for characters.The secret was pretty crazy too. If you haven't read the Divergent Trilogy yet, i'm telling you now that it is a must!

                                                                                Rating 5 out of 5.

"Divergent" by Veronica Roth

       "Divergent" by Veronica Roth is an extremely adventurous book. It's another first person perspective book that I fell madly in love with. It's your typical YA book with a couple of twists. There's a love story or two, different betrayals, and it's action packed. 

     Teenage Beatrice Prior is just about to have her choosing ceremony. Her choice could change her life forever. She can choose to stay in her own faction, stay in the area she grew up, be an Abnegation forever, or she can transfer to a different faction. Here's the catch if she transfers there's no going back. No family visits. It's faction before blood. Here's the next catch if you transfer you have an initiation process at the new faction. If you fail, you're factionless forever. Forced to live in the almost uninhabitable parts of the city. Will Beatrice transfer & go after a new life or will she stay an Abnegation forever? Stay with her family.


     This is honestly one of my favorite books. The first one out of a trilogy. I loved all three of them. There's so many different twists in not only this book, but the trilogy as a whole. The book made me think a lot. It had me in it's grasp from the first page. It's a book you don't want to start late at night because I promise once you start reading it you don't want to set it down until it's done.
