Divergent by Veronica Roth
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Well, I must start by telling you that I´m probably one of the few who has NOT yet read the Hunger Games trilogy (I´m working on it...) Even so, I understand that there is quite a few similarities. A young girl trying to figure out Who she is. In doing so, finding hidden strengths (both physical and mental) within her which is good since she needs all of them in the initiation process she´s going thru.

I listened to the novel vary well narrated by Emma Galvin and I listened as soon as I had a chance (in the car, walking the dog, cleaning the kitchen).

It is well written, the characters are plausible and easy to like (or hate). The main character Beatrice, later Tris, is someone you want to get to know and learn more about.

But, to me it seems that this, the first in a series of three, is very much an introduction to the rest. I don´t know if I´m right, but there is something missing. There is a lot of questions you don´t get answers to.

Why has the society changed into this very rigid form? What has happened to the world?

For me this lack of background made it difficult to understand and accept Tris´and the other initiates change and behaviour.

Non the less it´s a good read. Love, hate, good, evil, morality.

I do hope to find some answers in the next book. I would have given it one more star if I´ve gotten some more answers from the start.

The story ends with the beginning...
