Nancy Massingham | 3 comments Okay so I know he's trustworthy in divergent but what about in insurgent [spoilers] when he tries to helps to kill tris, and when it doesn't work out he has no where else to go so he begs for her forgiveness, but does he really mean it?

Serena (tslover) | 10 comments No way Jose


message 3: by Tris (new)

Tris | 92 comments Do you mean in Insurgent or Allegiant?


message 4: by Tris (new)

Tris | 92 comments I think in Insurgent he is not trustworthy, but in Allegiant he redeems himself and realizes his mistakes and becomes good. That's why Tris.... yeah.
(I tried to make this post spoiler free so if you read Allegiant you know what I am talking about)

True. How true.

Erin Vastag I truly don't know.


message 10: by Zara (new)

Zara (zahraalghurani) | 91 comments i dunno, from the first book he seemed strange to me. then when he *spoiler alert* literally nearly killed his own sister, i disliked him a lot more. but in allegiant when *spoiler alert* tris died for him, i sorta tried to forgive him, just like four. but i still can't really :/


message 11: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa *could be spoilers up ahead*
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.


message 12: by Madie (new)

Madie Prendergast | 11 comments I personally would never trust Caleb ever!! It must of been hard for Tris to see her own brother betray her. Caleb was always for 'faction before blood' which meant that if Tris became Erudite then maybe he could have been more trustworthy.


message 13: by Zara (new)

Zara (zahraalghurani) | 91 comments ^ yeah, he was a TOTAL faction before blood type of person.


message 14: by annaesj (new)

annaesj Ok, Caleb helps to try to kill his sister, but remember that Jeanine, an dangerously smart and manipulative person, was probably behind his actions. You can tell that he cared for Tris before leaving Abnegation, so it would have taken a lot of persuasion for him to betray her.
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!


message 15: by Amelia (new)

Amelia Desrochers | 54 comments I'm totally agree with you about Caleb but when you say that Tobias is always the center of attention I'm disagree seriously. It was the point view of Tris in all the books(with Tobias in the 3rd ). He is an interesting character with all happened in his life. So yaah I would like to see some books about Caleb's point view;) but at a point it would be a lot of repeat.


message 16: by Delaney Marie (new)

Delaney Marie I absolutely love Caleb so much that I can't hep but forgive him. He just seems so loving and innocent. I immediately forgave him as soon as he wanted to redeem himself. I crazy as it is {spoiler alert} I would have went in the weapon room instead of him too. I could NEVER let him die like that. Which is kind of sad being that I still haven't even thought to forgive Peter. Peter is just, well, evil.


message 17: by Tris (new)

Tris | 92 comments **Spoiler Alert!!!***

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.


message 18: by Zara (new)

Zara (zahraalghurani) | 91 comments ^ true.
*spoiler alert*
and if tobias can forgive him for killing his girlfriend then we can try to forgive him too.
i said try.


message 19: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sarahjanenatalie) | 11 comments *spoilers*
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.


message 20: by Madelén (new)

Madelén (madellie) NOT TRUSTWORTHY


message 21: by Natalie (new)

Natalie Pierotti | 6 comments untrustworthy until end of Allegiant where he volunteers to dance nwith death to get Tris' trust because of betraying while Jeanie still alive
* sentence to death


message 22: by Brook (new)

Brook K (the_brook_worm) | 15 comments Total untrustworthy!!!!!! Why do all the bad people have to live?!?!


message 23: by Δ|вσω (new)

Δ|вσω No


message 24: by Julia (new)

Julia (juliasere) | 10 comments NO! I just hate him...


Belle ~carry on my wayward son~ (BelleWinchester) | 134 comments No... He let his sister die for him and he betrayed Tris so many times its just unbelievable. How is this even a question. And the fact that tris forgave him just pisses me off even more because she was loving and selfless enough to forgive him after he betrayed her and then he let her die for him like the untrustworthy coward that he is. Im really mad that he survived. UGGHHH!!!


message 26: by Ishbel (new)

Ishbel | 484 comments Is Caleb trustworthy?
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 :(

Emma Maybe...I don't know. He could change


message 30: by Nithya (new)

Nithya | 77 comments Nope even if it counted on my life
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


message 31: by [deleted user] (new)

No. That's all I have to say. No


message 32: by Julianna (new)

Julianna Wagar He starts to show trust in allegiant but it's hard to say I honestly wishhp he died but now that Ansel is playing him I don't want him to die!


message 33: by Renée (new)

Renée Muñoz (reneebriannemunoz) | 21 comments Heck no he is not trustworthy... He should have been the one to die


message 34: by Gabrielle (new)

Gabrielle | 3 comments no. Just, no.


message 35: by [deleted user] (new)

No. It's simple. NO.


message 36: by Acacia (new)

Acacia | 21 comments Nopeeee! Never


message 37: by Zakary (new)

Zakary (zakedmondson) In Insurgent I was confused and didn't know what I thought but in Allegiant I thought that Caleb was trustworthy, I love the game 'Candor' and how Caleb was just, I dunno, but now I really like the character Caleb!
