One choice can transform you. Beatrice Prior's society is divided into five factions—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). Beatrice must choose between staying with her Abnegation family and transferring factions. Her choice will shock her community and herself. But the newly christened Tris also has a secret, one she's determined to keep hidden, because in this world, what makes you different makes you dangerous.

"Faction before blood." Beatrice Prior lives in a world where you can be classified into five factions centering around virtuous traits: Abnegation, her current family faction, for the selfless; Erudite, Abnegation's rival faction, for the intelligent; Amity for the peaceful; Candor for the honest; and Dauntless for the brave. She and her older brother Caleb are almost sixteen and nearing their Choosing Ceremony, in which they will pick the faction that best suits their personality, regardless of where their family currently resides. Tris is torn between her parents and what she wants. Even worse, when she takes a test to judge which faction she should choose, Tris' results show that she is Divergent: someone who doesn't fit into any of the five factions. Being Divergent is dangerous; Tris could be killed at any moment for not fitting the mold. And when Tris chooses Dauntless at the Choosing Ceremony, she breaks her family's hearts. Escaping with the other Dauntless initiates onto a moving train, Tris leaves her selfless Abnegation life for one of thrill, excitement - and deathly danger. This spellbinding novel by Veronica Roth proves that weighing decisions is one of the hugest burdens humanity bears.
I absolutely loved this book! Every page was full of excitement and suspense. There were some parts where it was kind of too violent and detailed (for me at least), but other than that, I really enjoyed this series!
I totally loved it but I strongly recommend you watch the movie
I won't go against your opinion but I think the book's are better.
SO GREAT!!!!! I absolutely completely LOVE this book!!!!!! Tris is the perfect main character, she is funny, deep, scared, brave. There is some romance, LOTS of risk, and (wah) sacrifice. Great book, but kinda heartbreaking, too. Read it!! - sirireads
This book is the spark of something interesting, something exciting, and most of all, something awesome. Beatrice will be your new role model. She starts as a normal 16-year old choosing her loyalties, forever, but it turned to be the beginning of something she never knew could happen: change. She took a test to figure where she belonged, but that came out all wrong as well; she was different, she was Divergent. Read this action-packed, emotional book series to find out the meaning behind all. It helped me figure out where I was in the world, and so could it to you.
This is a book written by the author Veronica Roth. In Beatrice's world, she is a perfect abnegation, at least, that is what it looks like. But on the inside she knows that Abnegation is not where she belongs. With her heart tearing her one way, and her family the other, even Beatrice doesn't know her choice. She can be Tris, a brave Dauntless, or she can stay as the obedient abnegation daughter she was born into. Read the book to find out what she chooses.
