The story and the fast pace of the writing kept me into this book. I wanted to know what happened in the end. 

I am torn when it comes to the characters. While I say I didn’t love the characters, I didn’t dislike them, either. The teenage drama is something that does not appeal to me, though I do like when characters have internal struggles and grow from them. There is some of this here. I imagine that Tris’ growth will happen across the trilogy and not solely in one book. 

I liked the story, but I haven’t decided yet whether to read the next book. I think what goes cross grain for me in this book is that everyone is a threat to the main character throughout most of the book. I find this kind of fear uncomfortable.
