About the Book:

Divergent, the first book in Veronica Roth‘s gripping series, immerses readers in a dystopian Chicago where society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to cultivating a specific virtue: Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). Every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will dedicate their lives. For Beatrice Prior, this decision is heart-wrenching: she must choose between staying with her family in Abnegation or embracing her true self, a choice that leads to an unexpected and shocking decision.

Renaming herself Tris, she enters the highly competitive and grueling initiation process of her chosen faction, where physical endurance and psychological resilience are tested to their limits. As Tris struggles to navigate this new world, she forms alliances and confronts intense challenges that transform her and her fellow initiates. Amid the trials, Tris finds herself drawn to a mysterious and intriguing boy, leading to a complicated and captivating romance.

However, Tris harbors a dangerous secret that she has kept hidden from everyone—a secret that could mean death if revealed. As she becomes aware of the unrest and escalating conflict threatening her seemingly perfect society, Tris realizes her secret might be the key to saving those she loves or bringing about her own destruction.

Divergent is a thrilling tale of courage, love, and the power of choice in the face of insurmountable odds, exploring themes of identity, loyalty, and sacrifice.
