I choose…..Dauntless….wait!…No I want to be….Divergent

I do have to say that I loved this series :) I wasn’t very as interested in the second book as I was in the first. The third book did piss me off, but I would recommend it still because it really was a great story and it kept me wanting to continue to read all three books just to see what happens because of its appealing characters and twists and turns. I loved this book because unlike Twilight this is a story that does have a little romance but it’s really on the back burner and its based more on Tris and her journey to find out who she is and is willing to fight for what she believes is right even if she has to go against her own friends and family. Sometimes she would piss me off because she would put herself in unnecessary dangerous situations but overall she is strong and needed to do what was right. I know that because it’s so popular everyone is reading it right now from all ages but I really wouldn’t recommend it to young children. I think I would recommend it to mature 8th graders like my niece but I would have others wait till high school to read it. There are far better series like, Diary of a Wimpy Kid or Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, which are more suited for younger children. I really did like how there were Divergent characters that couldn’t be placed in a society. To be different and be able to choose which faction you wanted to be in was great to read about and the struggles of either choosing to be with your family, choosing somewhere you want to be, or choosing to be factionless is what gave me the motivation to keep reading.
