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.

Perfect for fans of the Hunger Games and Maze Runner series, Divergent and its sequels, Insurgent and Allegiant, are the gripping story of a dystopian world transformed by courage, self-sacrifice, and love. Fans of the Divergent movie will find the book packed with just as much emotional depth and exhilarating action as the film, all told in beautiful, rich language.

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.

And don't miss Veronica Roth’s thrilling novel Carve the Mark.

Great book I highly recommend it! Genre - Futuristic mixed with reality Gripping,romantic and action filled 👍

All right, so I will tell you tell you about this GREAT book! (Warning: SPOILER ALERT) So. Imagine if your society was split up into five factions, and each one values a different thing. Abnegation: Selflessness. Erudite: knowledge. Candor: the truth. Amity: peace. And Dauntless: courage. Divergent is all about this girl named Beatrice Prior who lived in Abnegation. Then her 16th birthday came, and she had to prepare for her aptitude test. Her results were three factions. Abnegation, Erudite , and Dauntless. Beatrice was Divergent! She let her blood spill over the burning coal of Dauntless, and chose to abandon her family. This book is all about Beatrice's life in Dauntless. How she changed her name, ziplined through the air, made freinds, survived the test,and about her romantic relationship with Tobias.😘 I recommend it to kids and teens of all ages. And once again, this is the BEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😜😜😜 😜😜😜😜😃😃😃😃😄😄😄😘😘😘 ( oh and thx for reading! I hope you enjoy it!) ( and also, please follow) thanks again Bye!!

AMAZING I love the book it's *tear* the best ever

I decided to read this book because after watching and reading the Hunger Games series I wanted to try to read action books. After I finish reading this book, then I will be more interested in watching the movie. Also, I love to read books with life-death and survival situations.

This was a great book. It had a great plot, interesting characters, and a nice kind of cliffhanger. The setting was interesting, and time setting.

if you like the hunger games you'll like this book, but if you hate books with sad endings don't read this series. Otherwise it was amazing.
