characters are divided into 5 groups according to what really they are:
Candor - the honest
Abnegation - the selfless
Dauntless - the brave
Amity - the peaceful
Erudite - the intelligent
every 16 year olds will face a difficult decision to choose what group/faction they will go and give their loyalty. choosing other faction means leaving their families behind. 16 years olds -- sounds like Hunger Games? kinda. but here, they'll just choose and give a very tough decision, not to kill just to survive.
so from the 5 groups listed, where is the "Divergent" comes from? that's what you need to know as you read on.
action packed. friendship. family. decisions. loyalty. love.
i love the romance between... oppss... i don't want to give any spoilers.
one note. there's a part of the book that is very similar to Naruto (not the character but the series). the initiation process in this book is pretty much the same as the Chunin Exam in Naruto. if you're also a fan of the anime, you'll get the picture.
and of course, since this is a series book, there are lots of questions in your mind after you finished this. you'll definitely crave for the next book which is the Insurgent.
