Insurgent


This week I read Insurgent by Veronica Roth. In the book, the city is split into 5 factions. Erudite (The intelligent) Dauntless (the brave) Amity (peaceful) Candor (the honest) and last but not least Admegation (the selfless). Basically what happens is the Erudite attack the Admegation using a special serum they made to mind control the Dauntless into killing all the government leaders. Tris, the main character, and some of her friends are Divergent which means they are not effected by the serum, escape and flee to the amity for shelter eventually they team up with the factionless who are basically a homeless group of people, and plan an attack on the Erudite. Tris was all for the attack until her boyfriends father, Marcus ,reveals to her that the Erudite attacked to make sure some important history information was not revealed. Tris is forced to help Marcus instead of her own friends to save the information. She was prepared to give up her life for the cause just like both her parents had but after failing to obtain the information she was saved by her boyfriend Tobias. After that the factionless attempt to take over. In my opinion this book was not great but still good although not as good as Veronica's first book in the series Divergent. I quote that I like in this book is when Tris is about be put under a serum that was supposed to kill her. The serum goes into effect in one minute, be brave Tris. Out of 5 stars I would rate insurgent 4 stars and if you like books that are action packed then this book is for you.
