“Like a wild animal, the truth is too powerful to remain caged.”
Summary
One choice can transform you, or destroy you. Every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves, and herself, while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.
My thoughts
Okay I’m
pretty sure the third book will be the most desirable for me. Ever.
Really brilliant
piece of writing. The language is light, the plotlines are unpredictable. Truly
great series.
The whole
thing with Four and Tris relationship bothered me a lot throughout the book. I thought
at some point the breaking up was possible. And it felt so bad. Because Tris
lost her parents, killed her friend, the burden of guilt was way too heavy for
her. But it all ended up well. And I really like Tobias for that – for him
being so understanding and loyal, reliable and thoughtful. Instead of being angry because of Tris’s
hidden purposes he tried to believe her and check the information. Because in
the whole world she’s the only thing he can be sure about. I’m glad he’s not
like other characters in such type of books – stupid and blind until something
undeniable happens for them to believe.
The
characters in this book are rather changed, we found out a little bit more of
them. Christina. She was really upset because Tris has killed her boyfriend. Not
even upset but angry and furious. But still she founds power to forgive and
forget – very nice and reliable character in books so far. Uriah. How’s it even
possible not to like him? I mean everyone thought his brother was a traitor and
he was cool about it because he knew his brother like no one did and didn’t
really believe in him being a traitor. His love Marlene dies and he’s cheerful
because it is the way he lives. Laughs through pain and loss. Lynn. What a
great character she was! Loyal no matter what. And honest. It’s shame she faded
away. Fernando – we hadn’t opportunity to know him for long, but what we knew
he was brave and kind. And of course he died. Peter. I’m not satisfied with his
line here. It could be such a nice plot twist – he hates Tris and then saves
her life because he’s not that bad. But no he is and it’s tragic. And it makes
his good deed not so bright.
But who
really amazed me is Caleb. Like what the hell he did? It’s really hard to think
of him as a traitor because he is such a nice character. He was. Can’t believe he
really found an excuse for his deeds. Such a shame Tris still cared about him
after all. He’s her brother though.
The whole
book I didn’t like Four’s mother. Like I feel she’ll do something that will
hurt him a lot. The whole family thing is painful for him maybe that’s why he
tried really hard to believe her and didn’t listen what Tris said.
I have a
feeling that new government would be worse and that weak and exhausted group of
people that left would need to organize revolution more effective that they
did. The thought that the whole world exists without fractions etc. terrifies
them and it’s understandable. It means the whole their life was a lie. The cliffhanger
is the worst – you just really don’t know what to think and what the characters
would do.
Can’t wait
for the next book – Allegiant.
YES, YES and YES!
