Insurgent
by
Veronica Roth (Goodreads Author)
One choice can
transform you, or destroy you. Every choice has consequences, and as
unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue
trying to save those she loves, and herself, while grappling with
haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty,
politics and love.
My Review: 8.5/10
It was a little slow going
for the first half and Tris was really irritating me with the constant
contradictions (ie I am strong, I am not strong. I can do this, but I
can't do this). It was a whole lot of nothing. Maybe I'm not very
compassionate and/or maybe it was supposed to show her confusion and
numbness, but I really just found it ineffective and annoying. The
second half was so much better. I liked the conversations with Jeanine.
And I thought the ending was great too. If nothing else, I would at
least say that this book stands alone and does not succumb to the
"middle book syndrome." Looking forward to reading "Detergent" when it
comes out in a little over a year. :]
