Allegiant by Veronica Roth

Allegiant (Divergent, #3)

by Veronica Roth

What if your whole world was a lie?

The thrillingly dark conclusion to the No. 1 New York Times bestselling DIVERGENT trilogy.

What if a single revelation - like a single choice - changed everything?
What if love and loyalty made you do things you never expected?

The faction-based society that Tris Prior once believed in is shattered - fractured by violence and power struggles and scarred by loss and betrayal. So when offered a chance to explore the world past the limits she's known, Tris is ready. Perhaps beyond the fence, she and Tobias will find a simple new life together, free from complicated lies, tangled loyalties, and painful memories.

But Tris's new reality is even more alarming than the one she left behind. Old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless. Explosive new truths change the hearts of those she loves. And once again, Tris must battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature - and of herself - while facing impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice and love.

Told from a riveting dual perspective, Allegiant, by #1 New York Times best-selling author Veronica Roth, brings the Divergent series to a powerful conclusion while revealing the secrets of the dystopian world that has captivated millions of readers in Divergent and Insurgent.

Don't get me wrong, I really liked the book, its just that the ending ruined it. I feel like I was standing in line at my favorite artists concert, and I go in, they play all these amazing songs, then end it with ring around the roses. Needless to say, If i could just chop of the entire end half of my book/ get back all the time I wasted, then I would give it 5 stars. IDK, I had some high expectations for this book that was not met.




Then on top of it, just when Tris and Four are starting to make up and start to form a real relationship, Tris dies. really? I saw this quote the other day that sums up why I really don't like the book, It went along the lines of "When writing Dystopian books, you have to keep in mind that the end has to give you hope for a better future". Sorry, but when I read this, I just kinda thought "Why the heak did I even pick up this series?" I got im danny phantom sense of hope, just acceptance. Four got wimpier in this book which I hate and this was kinda a huge let down. But hey, Its not my book to write so eh.



To be honest, Tris' death didn't really hit me until a few hours later, thats when I realized she's never coming back, I mean I thought I hated Hunger games' MockingJays ending but honestly, I can still go back and read that book.



idk, I only read it cause I read the other books, but lets be honest, If I knew how it was going to end before I read it, I could have spent my time reading another book that didn't make me cry

I would only recommend it if your ready for heartbreak.
