And it began with...

The first book I read was Divergent by Veronica Roth. I saw this book in a few reviews and it sounded pretty interesting. It didn't disappoint.  In this novel, society is divided into 5 factions based on your personality. Are you courageous, honest, selfless, peaceful or intelligent? What would you choose if given the choice? Do you stay with you family, or take a risk and follow your heart? What if you have all these traits and are Divergent? This is a Hunger Games type of dystopian novel with a (surprise, surprise) love story too. I can add Tobias to the long list of fictional boys teenage girls will love. Trice is a strong willed, tough, caring girl who fights for what she wants. What a great way to start the summer of reading.
