Hey guys so today I am here with my review of
Divergent by Veronica Roth, if you don't know what Divergent is, well let me
explain so here we go. In the book there are five factions, Abnegation who are
the selfless ones, Amity the peaceful ones, Candor the honest ones, Duntless
the brave ones and Erudite who are the smart ones, so when you reach the age of
sixteen you choose which faction you want to live in, you can either stay with
your family in the faction you were born into, or leave them and do your own
thing. The story follows sixteen year old Beatrice who has to choose which
faction she wants to live in and that's where the story really takes off.
So I had heard a lot about this book and me being me
decided, it wasn't going to live up the hype and I put off reading it until a
few weeks ago...boy was I wrong, it met my expectations and just raised that
bar.
Pros of the book:
- · this book grabbed my attention and didn't realise it until I finished it, I literally finished this book in two days, and I don't know if you've seen the book but it's kind of a big book, It also made me feel every single emotion that the character Beatrice was feeling, weather it was happy, scared or sad
- To me the characters develop really well in this book, especially Beatrice, she goes from this kind of unhappy little girl to this wonderful strong independent woman, I think this is the first book in a long time where I instantly loved the main character, usually I hate them at the start and then warm up to them
- · The romance doesn't make you feel sick, unlike a lot of books these days I have to say the romance was really well written, In a lot of books I have been reading recently the romance either makes me feel really sick or really annoyed because it's just unbelievable, in Divergent the romance is so cute, like it made me go "AWWWWWW" and brought the biggest smile to my face
- · It surprised me, finally a book that surprises me at the end instead of having me going "Yup, seen that one coming" I was like "WHAT? WOW! WHAT?" so yes it's nice to be surprised for once
Cons of the book:
I don't have any cons for this book :)
My Rating
So I gave this book five out of five stars on Goodreads,
because it is simply amazing, I would highly recommend this book, it is just
Amazing and I am currently reading the second one so look out for my review of
it which should be up pretty soon
