Divergent by Veronica Roth - review

Divergent is about a girl called Tris. She lives in a world which has a divided society. Tris doesn't fit in to any of the societies, she is different. She is forced to live a life she doesn't want. She wants to find where she belongs, so she leaves her family behind and ventures out alone. However, she finds herself in a brutal new life where she can trust nobody. Along this journey she becomes drawn to a boy who seemed dangerous but safe.

The book was very intriguing from the very start to the end. The plot line was unique and kept me reading. Many people say it is just like The Hunger Games, but I have read and enjoyed both books and I can tell you they are very different.

Divergent was based around many different aspects, but what I liked the most about this book was that it displayed not only the relationship that Tris had with Four, but it was also based on her friendship with the other characters and her family. I feel like other books are generally based around one relationship and don't really show the character's relationship with their friends and family as much as Divergent did, and that's what I think made Divergent a great book to read.

Tris was a very strong character and it was very interesting to read about her because she had her own mind and did not follow rules. She was a very determined character which made it so much better to read. And to top it all off there was a bit of romance in the book, which made it even better to read.
I would recommend this book to people who enjoy adventure books and love books like The Hunger Games.
