Based on what I have read so far, Divergent is one of the best books that I have read. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. I decided to read this because of the movie, which I loved, although I am enjoying the book more. I would recommend this because it is a great book which appeals to teens and has an oddly relatable main character, Beatrice (or Tris). This is because she is told (through the aptitude test) that she doesn't fit in in society; a feeling most teens have felt before. Also, I think that the factions, Abnegation, Dauntless, Cantor, Erudite, and Amity, can all be related to. Lately I have been trying to explain which factions certain actions I take do. During a camping trip I took this weekend, I stopped to help one of my friends that had fallen, I categorized that into Abnegation, because I was putting them in front of me. I don't think that I lied all trip, this could be categorized into Cantor. I did tons of homework on the ride there and back, this could be considered Erudite. Lastly, Dauntless, I did a couple of things that could be considered dauntless; first, I started a fire on night and second, one of my friends tents was moved (by mean people) and helped them put it back up. These factions may seem like crazy concepts, but they are concepts that are present in our everyday life.
