Wow. That's all I can say. This book is about Beatrice Prior, an girl who was first in the faction Abnegation, the selfless. Since she was little, she knew she didn't fit in. She didn't fit in ANY faction. It was too easy for her to lie, so she wasn't Candor, she wasn't always so selfless, so she couldn't be Abnegation, and on. She was Divergent. Divergent is an mix between all of the factions. On choosing day, she chooses Dauntless, the brave, and immediately makes friends and rivals. She makes friends with Al, Will, and Christina. When the Euderite actually had a plan a along to control the Dauntless and attack the Abnegation with them, Beatrice (who changed her name to Tris) has to find a way to save them with a few people.

I thought this book was a good book I liked how she described the scenes
I thought this book was okay... it definitely had a ton of action but the characters didn't do it for me and I didn't think it was that exciting in between the action.
I absolutely LOVE this book and the whole series! I wish there were more than just three. Im so glad they made a movie out of it! I went to see it when it came out and they left a couple of important parts out but it was still really good. Cant wait to see if they're going to make movies out of Insurgent and Allegiant!
This book is the best, can't wait to read the next!!!! seeing the movie today!!!! :)
In the world of Beatrice Prior- it's all rules and the enviornment is extrememly strict. Don't go beyond/outside the fence, don't look in the mirror, don't talk when an adult is talking, wait for the alpha to arrive before dinner, and especially.... be a stiff, talk like a stiff, forever a stiff- ABNEGATION.... is just ONE of FIVE FACTIONS. Abnegation- Stiff, but selfless Erudite- Smart, but cruel Amity- Friendly, but strict Candor- Truthful, but too honest Dauntless- FIERCE, but violent JOIN the world of Beatrice! Her brother, Caleb, has always been suspicious- always up to something- all day stuck in his room in the dark, doing something... turns out on the day, he betrays Abnegation!!! He dropped his blood- traitor blood into the filthy bowl of Erudite! I mean, yeah- she shouldn't be talking because she too is a traitor by going to Dauntless, but YIKES! I mean what?! Her very own brother chose WOW I mean, HOW Did he choose ERUDITE!?????? Well, Beatrice's parents defintly didn't talk to ANY of them anymore.................................. Well, after that, she ran and jogged with the Dauntless, and soon, they had to jump into a MOVING train!!! Someone fell, and that's how you end up factionless then, she is the first girl to jump in the building. She is famous now. Suddenly, a handsome boy with dark brown hair and dark eyes and a emotionless face watched her carefully as he asked, "Congratulations, your the first person to be dauntless, what's your name?" She said, "Tris. Tris Prior. I'm from Abnegat-" She started. BOUNCE! A tall boy with hazel- green eyes smirked at Tris and the boy- sneering, "You mean your a STIFF?" That's Peter. "I'm Four- your leader for you trainees- and I'm Four because I have four fears- and ONLY Four fears."
