At the moment I'm battling the urge to either hug my supervisor,
or give her shake and ask her what she was thinking!!!
Which of course, I would almost never do... ;)
She and I share a love of reading,
so when we got to talking books, and she began telling me about Divergent,
I knew I wanted to read it.
Basically, if you liked the Hunger Games, you will love this.
It is similar, in the way the futuristic society is broken up; instead of Districts, like The Hunger Games, they are called Factions.
There are Five Factions: Amity, Candor, Abnegation, Dauntless, Erudite.
Needless to say, I'm hooked. I started the first book Friday, and finished it Friday night.
The second book I bought on Sunday, and finished it Monday night.
I tried, tried, TRIED, to slow it down on the second one,
because I knew I had until October for the third one came out,
but that didn't happen.
I was totally sucked in, unable to put the stupid book down for too long,
because I HAD to know what would happen next.
Now I have 4 months until the third book, Allegiant, comes out.
I will definitely be pre-ordering this book.
I think my favorite thing about this book is the relationship that forms
between two of the main characters.
But I won't spoil it for you.
You will just have to read them yourself!
The movie comes out next year; March I think.
So I'm super excited!
That means more premiers for my sister and I to attend! :)
This series is on my to-read list. I might wait until later this summer though, so I don't have to wait so long for the next installment. :)
