Divergent
By: Veronica Roth
This is a recently very popular book series that is being made into movies as most people know. I still have yet to see the movie, but after finally getting around to reading the first book, I really want to.
This book takes place in a Utopian society where everyone is split into 5 different factions. Each faction represents a different human quality. Truth, knowledge, selflessness, peace, and bravery. People are born into a faction and raised in that fashion until they turn 16. They are then administered a test to help them decide which faction they wish to belong to. Beatrice Prior, our heroine, doesn't quite fit into any one particular faction. This is called divergence, this quality is feared by the people in control and so she is forced to keep it hidden. She must choose a faction to "belong" to and hide her true individuality.
I thoroughly enjoyed this first installment of the series. I am going to go on a tangent and just say I really like to see all of these young adult series that feature a strong female protagonist (Ex. Divergent, and Hunger Games). It is extremely refreshing to know that there is more out there for younger girls to relate to than the weak and submissive women found in other series such as Twilight or 50 shades of Grey. I feel very strongly about the importance of a strong girl to look up to. When I grew up I was always looking for an exciting adventure featuring a girl and now they are popping up everywhere. Anyway, Beatrice is certainly a tough cookie. She has to make many difficult decisions in order to find out who she truly is. I love the themes that emphasize individuality amongst a Utopian society. Yes, I know it has been done before, but I really think this series so far has brought a new and fresh feeling to it. It is a creative story and world keeping me turning the pages. I finished it in 2 days if that says anything haha.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone to read if you haven't already. I look forward to reading to next two in the series.
Let me know what your feelings on YA books are. Do you agree that a strong female is important to have for girls these days?
