HOLY.FUDGING.AWESOME-NESS.Review also available at Say It With BooksThis book was on my TBR list for a reeeeally long time and there was a lot of hype about it but I never really got around to reading it.And just recently I bought it from Amazon and boy oh boy,it totally was worth every cent!Divergent is the kinda book that keeps you up the enter night because it was frigging amazing.First the description of the world that Roth had created was written so vividly that it was almost as if I was there with Beatrice/Tris.The unfairness of the factions, the simple pleasures that the people were denied and all those stifling rules!There was plenty of action and there were some nail-biting moments.The characters were like-able too.None of those usual wimpy and pathetic protagonists,Tris was totally badass!At the beginning we get to see only a peek of her fearlessness but as the story progresses she kicks ass!Tris was a realistic character who did not fit in and she made a hard choice when she chose her faction.She had her insecurities and made a bunch of mistakes so she I could relate to her.I LOVED Four too - he was unpredictable and strong such a sweetie too!The supporting characters Christina, Will, Peter, Al,Tris's parents and brother were great supporting characters too.Divergent wasn't perfect but it was pretty close.I wish Roth had explained the differences between the factions in depth.And also I wish Caleb, Tris's brother was more involved in the story.The ending wasn't much of a cliff hanger but since I loved the story I absolutely cannot wait to read Insurgent!"A chasm reminds us that there is a fine line between bravery and idiocy."
