I'm currently reading it and it has managed to to push all the other books I'm reading to the back burner.
I've begun reading it as well. So far I don't really know what to think but as I get deeper into it, I'll let you know what I think.
I'm 43% through Divergent and it is nothing at all like I thought it would be. I really don't know what to think of it still and it's turning out to be a very brutal, good and almost overwhelming story.
I'm about 1/3 if the way through and I'm compelled to keep reading. Just when I think I know the direction the story is headed there's just enough of a twist in the story to surprise me, which is the sign of a good story for me.
I've had this on hold at my library for quite some time. It's overdue by a month & a half and I'm still waiting. Very annoying!
I've read Divergent and have already pre-ordered my version of Insurgent. I believe the Divergent series will go down in history just like Hunger Games and Harry Potter. For the author to be so young, she is defintely talented and I can't wait to read more from her.
So, I finished Divergent finally and I wound up loving it after having a very rocky feeling of the beginning of it. I thought it was an incredible story and I can't wait to read Insurgent.
I read this book a few months ago, and have been waiting very IMPATIENTLY for Insurgent to come out. I thought this novel was absolutely to die for and couldn't put it down.
Loved this story! Well written. Great female heroine. Twists and turns that don't necessarily carry the story where you want it to go, but make it that much more readable. I'm hoping Insurgent will develop more of the characters surrounding Tris.
Absolutely loved this book, as well as the sequel Insurgent! Well-written, plenty of action and suspense, a strong and likeable female lead, and a great romance! All the things I love in a story.
I started it on Friday night and finished it Sunday evening. Couldn't fault it at all. There was action or romance, intrigue and drama on every page. Superb.
I just read this in two days. It was well paced and I enjoyed the relationship between Four & Tris. I typically don't like dystopians because of all of the deaths and the lack of hope. This one ended on a nice note even though we know there is a lot more conflict coming. (view spoiler) There were a couple of things I thought were inconsistent but maybe they will be addressed in the sequels.
I think it was really good. But I'm a BIG book nerd and like pretty much all the books I've ever read. You might not want my opinion lol.
