Love the Hunger Games? Then you will certainly love this book--it has many simularities, but an entirely different plot! In this book, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to a particular virtue: Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On one day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice Prior, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is—she can’t have both. She struggles with the decision, until she must choose which faction to belong to.

I LOVE THIS BOOK SO FREAKING MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
amazing book + movie
read it
I love this book along with The Hunger Games, Starters, and Matched. I love the storyline and how the romance is there, but isn't the main point. I also agree with Cupcake1555 that Erudite and Amity are my favorite factions.
Good, but sort of inapropiate
I really liked your review, you were really honest about "factions." And I think I would be in Erudite too. ^-^
I really liked this book but I for some reason I liked the last one, Allegiant, a little better than this one because it ends really unexpectedly!
I absolutely LOVE this book and the whole series! I wish there were more than just three. Im so glad they made a movie out of it! I went to see it when it came out and they left a couple of important parts out but it was still really good. Cant wait to see if they're going to make movies out of Insurgent and Allegiant!
