Divergent was definitely one of my favorite books and had me jumping out of my my seat. It started off with the author explaining and describing the lifestyle of Beatrice, a 16 year old girl, in a world of pure control. In the world there are five factions: Erudite the intelligent, Abnegation the selfless, Candor the honest, Amity the peaceful and finally Dauntless the brave. Before Choosing Day, in which each sixteen year old will decide what faction they wish to live and devote their lives to, is a test where you will be told which faction you will fit in most with. But for Beatrice the test is inconclusive, meaning Beatrice has three factions she fits into. This is called Divergent. She must not tell anyone about her dangerous secret or else she could risk death. She must choose her own fate and overcome challenges with no limits.
Divergent drew me into Beatrice's world. There were moments when she was weak and hesitant and times when she would put herself into danger for another's life. I think Veronica Roth(author) put a lot of thought into the description of the characters and gave me a vivid picture of the story line. I recommend this book to anyone who loves action, romance and adventure. This book will have you sitting on the edge of your seat and biting your nails in excitement!
