I borderline HATED this book. The characters are flat and the description is almost non-existent. The author tells us what the main character is feeling but there is no explanation as to why. It was pretty much impossible to relate to or empathize with the main character at all. The only time the author seemed to bother with any description of HOW the character feels (versus simply TELLING US) was during the moments of her budding sexual attraction to one of the other characters.

Good premise and an ok YA book. The ending was a bit of a disappointment. It is like she stopped doing character development and just filled in the outline. It also has a cliffhanger that is more like a TV series and expects you to pick it up next season or at least the next book. That was a bit of a turn off for me so I won't be reading the next book...at least not right now.
Still I liked the main character. I enjoyed the thoughts behind this book and parts of it were well done. I can see why ...more

Just checked this one out from our local library! A good book - fast paced. Definitely similarities to the Hunger Games.
Loved all of the little twised and turns in Divergent.
Another refreshing kick-back from the YA genre.
