This first book in Veronica Roth's #1 New York Times bestselling Divergent trilogy is the novel the inspired the major motion picture starring Shailene Woodley, Theo James, and Kate Winslet. This dystopian series set in a futuristic Chicago has captured the hearts of millions of teen and adult readers.

One choice can transform you. Beatrice Prior's society is divided into five factions—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). Beatrice must choose between staying with her Abnegation family and transferring factions. Her choice will shock her community and herself. But the newly christened Tris also has a secret, one she's determined to keep hidden, because in this world, what makes you different makes you dangerous.

This book is one of my favorite book. It has a great story plot, the main character is a very strong girl. The main character doesn't have fears, and also the author describe the character in detail, so it makes me get more to know what is the main character thinking, and the personality of the main character. The story plot is very interesting, the life of people in different social levels, and the social groups are also divided into different society. I really recommend people to read this book.

Love all three books except allegiant you will find out when you get to the end.

LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finished it recently! Now i am reading Insurgent!!!!! <3 Tris is very confident and i admire that. More girls should be as confident as her! Every girl is herself and no one else! BE CONFIDENT!!!!!!

I really want to read this book!😜

Divergent is a great adventure book. The books talks about a girl named Tris trying to save the society and fit in. The society is split into five factions. Everyone have to choose a faction and survive it. A divergent is a type of people that can fit in more than one factions which are genius in a more simple way of saying it. People are afraid of divergents because they are smarter and better than them. The government lied to the citizen that divergent threat the society so they have to kill all divergents. Tris is a divergent and later on she ended up rebelling the government and ran away. The story is interesting because the government said that divergent are threats to the society because they are typically smarter and better, they are afraid that divergents might find out what they are planning to do and stop it. The government want the society to change to a monarchy but divergents are smart and they will know so they will stop it. I wonder what the normal people thinks, because they just listen to the government without using their brains.

Divergent is an adventurous and thrilling book about a girl named Tris, who lives in a society where there are factions: Abnegation, Erudite, Candor, Dauntless, and Amity. She is from Abnegation, but when she takes the aptitude test, she finds out that she has aptitude for 3 factions. This is called Divergent. It's dangerous being a Divergent, so she keeps it a secret and at the Choosing Ceremony, she chooses Dauntless. As she begins her life anew with the thrill of Dauntless, she meets an instructor named Four, after his four fears. Then, as everything starts to go her way, the Erudite form a simulation that threatens to kill Dauntless. So begins a fun adventure...

This is an awesome book! You should really read this book. First of all, there are five factions, like categories. They are called, Dauntless, Erudite, Amity, Abnegation, and Candor. Beatrice Prior is the main character. I think that this time place is in the future. This story takes place in Chicago. There is a kind of person called divergent. Divergence is really dangerous. Beatrice is one hundred percent divergent. At a thing called a choosing ceremony. Beatrice has a brother named Caleb. Beatrice and Caleb are both in Abnegation with their family. At the choosing ceremony, Beatrice is surprised because her brother Caleb chooses Erudite which is all about intelligence. Then Beatrice chooses Dauntless; which is all about being brave. When Beatrice goes to Dauntless, she changes her name to Tris. Tris has an instructor named Four and later in the book, they fall in love. Later in the story, Tris finds out that Four's real name is Tobias Eaton. If you like a love story and an epic adventure, then Divergent is the best book for you. When I finished reading Divergent, I wanted to read the other books so badly! Remember to read Divergent! I strongly recommend this book.

i always loved this book.A girl called Tris live in four sociality world, when a girl turn 17 years old, they have to pick a new sociality. Tris choose the sociality about surviving and she face a lot of problem in this story, she meet a boy called Four in the sociality world and they fall in love with each other. Four help tris a lot to face the problem.Tris doesn't fit in to any of the societies, she is different. She is a hundred percent divergent, which mean you have a part of five faction: Abnegation, Amity, Candor, Dauntless, and Erudite. Tris finds herself in a brutal new life where she can trust nobody. And so after she meet Four. This is a book that intriguing from the very start to the end. It displayed relationship that Tris had with Four, and it also talks about based on her friendship with the other characters and her family. Hunger games doesn’t have much weakness but there are some unknown reason about Jeanie. I like to read the book that start very simulate, it let me feel very interesting! This is a book that intriguing from the very start to the end. And I like the most about this book is it displayed relationship that Tris had with Four, and it also talks about based on her friendship with the other characters and her family. Many people say it’s just like The Hunger Games, but I’ve read it and I enjoyed both books and I can tell you that they are very different. But they are all very interesting. Divergent also talk about love story too. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy adventure books and love story.

I LOVE THE WHOLE SERIES but one little thing irritates me: there is WAY too much touching and kissing
