Je ne me souvenais plus à quel point le livre était différent du film. 
Je trouve que contrairement au premier (mon préféré) les scènes sont beaucoup moins bien organisées, certaines meme inutiles, il y a énormément (trop) de personnages qui sont mal (parfois pas du tout) réutilisés… 
Tris et Tobias dans ce tome sont beaucoup moins « likable » en tant que personnes et en tant que couple. 
Par contre Christina <3 <3 
Mais ce tome était quand même génial, facile à lire en anglais et rapide. 
Par contre je l’ai trouvé extrêmement triste (pas étonnant que ce soit sur celui-là que je pleure le plus).

I totally forgot how good this book is. Some of my favourite moments happen and it is such a strong continuation of Divergent. We are so much world building and character development as it transitions into much darker themes. 
Overall a solid book!

I didn't like this book. Personally, I found it just very depressing. Tris is dealing with the grief of killing her friend in self-defense and it is just a really heavy topic. I won't recommend this book nor will i finish the series
