Divergent Trilogy by Veronica Roth
B1: Divergent 10/10, B2: Insurgent 10/10, B3: Allegiant 9.8/10
The novel follows a girl named Tris, who lives in a dystopian post-apocalyptic Chicago in a society whereby everyone lives in one of five factions. These factions stop anyone from exercising free will and if someone was to rebel against their faction, they are killed. Tris, after finding out that she is a rare 'divergent' who does not fit into a faction, chooses the faction of Dauntless. The novel is about Tris finding herself and dealing with her new life where she has to keep secrets from everyone, even her gorgeous instructor who seemingly gets under her skin like no one else.
You probably have heard of this trilogy before or even watched the movies, but honestly, the hype surrounding these books is all justified. Roth has an excellent writing style and is realistic about the consequences of war. Also, if you have seen the movies, don't pass off the books. Like most movies, only the basic plot is covered. The books go way deeper into Tris and Tobias as individuals and what is happening in the world around them- plus they make more sense than the movies. Furthermore, the romance is a great feature of the novels! So, even if you think you already know what happens, still have a read. I don't give a book 10/10 for nothing so you know that this series takes awesome to a new level. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!! Click here to see the Divergent Trilogy on goodreads
