I felt bad for him at the end because he sounded so unhappy, but i dont really like him at all he is a brat

True. How true.


I would say Caleb isn't trustworthy because, even in the first book, when Tris sneaks out of Dauntless to see Caleb, Caleb isn't as excited to see her; Faction Before Blood. He did look up what Tris asked him to do but it was because their mom asked Tris in the first place. In the second book when he helps Jeanine kill Tris he becomes a traitor. Obviously not trustworthy. Tris died for him in Allegiant out of love, and Caleb only volunteered to go through the death serum just to not feel guilty, he wanted Tris to forgive him but it wasn't an act of love.


I think Caleb is a really intriguing character who I would like to know more about. I wish there was a short story from his point of view instead of everything being about Tobias all the time!



If Tris was kind enough to forgive Caleb and give up her life for him, I think we should all forgive Caleb. Sure he made a lot of mistakes in Insurgent, but he really did ask for forgiveness with all his heart and he meant it when he said he was sorry. If Tris can forgive her own brother for almost killing her, then we can too.

*spoiler alert*
and if tobias can forgive him for killing his girlfriend then we can try to forgive him too.
i said try.

I don't think he is trustworthy at all in the books after what he DIDN'T do to help Tris in Erudite, he was just going to let his own sister die. I still really dislike what happened at the end of Allegiant, his near 'sacrifice' wasn't out of love just to not feel guilty and Tris going in for him was something I just knew would happen but it really pissed me off.

* sentence to death


Yes
Then no
Then it's complicated
Then maybe
Then possibly
Then (when reading the end of Allegiant) whatever, it doesn't matter anymore, nothing matters anymore :(

How could anyone trust Caleb. He is literally the reason tris died. And he didn't even go and try to save her. I have always wondered what Caleb was doing while tris was risking her life for him
No. That's all I have to say. No
