I love the struggles Tris faces in this book. I must admit I read Divergent a while ago, and then at some point while I was waiting for this one to come out, I lost interest. Don't know why. Honestly. Then, a couple of days ago, I discovered this one in my Kindle library and wondered, why not? I paid for it, after all. And I couldn't put it down. Really, because even though it's set in a dystopian world, I still can empathize with what the girl is going through and I love the general theme. As a teenager, I like reading about this because the message I get is that no matter what others tell me, I've got to do what I think is best and to stick to my beliefs. I have a better undersanding of what being brave is about, and also when it's alright to be scared.:)
