This book is amazing and extremely exciting. We first get to know the lifestyle of Beatrice, a sixteen year old girl, in a dystopian world, where there are five factions of people: Abnegation, who put others before their own needs and where Beatrice is currently from, the Dauntless, who are brave and fearless, the Erudite, who crave knowledge, the Amity, who are peaceful, and the Candor, who are honest. Before Choosing Day, where each sixteen year old will decide which faction they wish to devote their life to, is a simulated aptitude test that will tell Beatrice which faction she would fit in most with...but for her, life will never be simple. Instead of having just one of these traits, as is normal, Beatrice possesses at least three, which classifies her as Divergent. This makes her a dangerous person for reasons she doesn't understand. She has to keep this information to herself or risk being killed, so she can't find the answers she craves. Beatrice ultimately has to make a decision that will change the rest of her life: stay with her family or choose what would really make her happy. If she lets her guard down, she faces becoming factionless, without friends or family. As she finds love, she finds another thing she never thought she would: herself.
