My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I finished this one awhile ago, at work, crying at the public desk. It's a beautifully written novel with such an emotional gut punch. Have your tissues ready.

Divergent

Divergent by Veronica Roth

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


In the future, citizens are sorted into five factions. At sixteen you must choose a faction that you will belong to the rest of you life. There is just one faction for everyone - or at least that is what the government says. But what if your test is inconclusive and are labeled a Divergent?

This is a read at the edge of your seat book. I can't wait for the second novel, Insurgent, to come out in May 2012
