I am forever blown away by how much better these books are compared to the films. From the character details to the plot changes, the books are just better and way more enjoyable.

I love the complex characters and that the book lives in the shades of grey of humanity. It's not a goodies and baddies, it's people making decisions and figuring stuff out. Even in a dystopian future, the characters are believable and their struggles are relatable.

i enjoyed divergent more than this one but i think that's mainly because the characters became quite annoying in this one and dare i say in this case i actually almost prefer the movie more. i feel like the book has a lot of back and forth between tris and tobias and they keep circling around to the same bs, which i understand emphasises how important it is whatever whatever, but it's a bit too excessive at some parts.there were points where i was just screaming at both of them because of how annoying they were.

other than that i did still enjoy the book quite a lot!i think one of my favourite parts about these books so far, which i guess is up to debate, is that it doesn't only focus on the love story between our Tris and Tobias, there's also no unnecessary love triangle thank god!! i like the exploration of the other factions in more depth and even those without a faction. there were quite a few shocking twists

like tobias' mother still being alive and the ending where we find out the whole purpose of the factions and the divergent

which i heavily enjoyed reading.

there were times where my heart broke for tris so many times with everything she had to deal with in this book :( but also for tobias having to witness and go through all of it whilst watching the woman he loves struggling.
