Oh wow, I loved this book! I really liked Divergent but this one? I loved loved loved it! Insurgent is the second book in the Divergent trilogy. It is full of action, suspense, and messed up relationships. Veronica Roth had me constantly second guessing which characters I believed in and which I didn’t. I wasn’t even 100% sure who were the good guys and who were the bad guys up to the last page.

I liked this second book, but not as much as Divergent.

Enjoying the trilogy & looking forward to the next, final, book in the series.

Still a lot of action and much more movement than the first book.
