Book: 2nd in the Divergent Trilogy
Author: Veronica Roth
Pages: 525
Rating: ✭✭✭✭✭
Goodreads Summary: One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But 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.
Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

Review:
Insurgent is a great follow up to the book Divergent. I feel like there is so much more character development in this book. Throughout Insurgent, we learn more about the faction system, witness Tris and Four's relationship grow, are introduced to many new characters and end the book with quiet the cliffhanger.
I loved the way Veronica portrayed Tris in Insurgent. Tris has gone through some pretty traumatizing experiences and Veronica didn't sugar coat that. She allowed for those imperfections to show. Veronica showed that weak side of Tris and that's not something you see in many YA novels.
I definitely recommend this book if you loved Divergent and if you haven't yet read Divergent, I suggest you do that as well! I'll be sure to be giving this book a 5 star rating on Goodreads!
Happy Reading! ❤
