Divergent did not let up for a minute! It was action-packed, and actually had my heart going fast a few times - not a usual experience for me while reading. As a dystopia, it's not overly bleak, and is set in an interesting society. There are problems at both the personal and society levels, and plenty of growth happening for the main character, with changes in the forecast for the society as well. I really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to picking up the next one. ...more

Ah ! La fameuse dystopie coup de cœur d'un grand nombre de personne... Et si j'ai vraiment passé un super moment en compagnie de Tris et Quatre, il aura manqué un petit truc pour que ce soit un coup de cœur...

Well this is a bit of a odd review for me because I've just finished Divergent and currently I'm in two different minds. . .

Thanks to certain similarities with The Hunger Games trilogy, I was able to embrace this Dystopian world with much more ease than I have in previous books. Excellent read, though the book really has such an open ending to it that it can not quite stand entirely on it's own in my opinion. There was no way I would have ever felt satisfied without reading it's sequel, because there is no sense of completion in this book for me. ...more

My friend recommended this book and it was amazing. Extremely similar to Hunger Games but more relatable.
