Divergent was a book that I knew would be good from the start. I have this little soft spot for action packed adventure and this is one of them. It has themes of fear. What is fear. why do we fear? How do we overcome our fears? Is it right to to just follow your dreams or what has already been planned for you? It was really a wonderful book and I couldnt put it down until I finished reading it.

There isn't a single negative thing that I could think to say about this book; I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and would certainly recommend it to anyone who enjoys this type of literature. ...more

I loved every minute of this book. I thought the characters were rich, the description was extremely well done and the romance was understated, but oh so lovely. Can't wait for #2 ...more
