SOOO this book. I waited a while to read it, which is really strange actually, mostly because I finished [b:Divergent|13335037|Divergent (Divergent, #1)|Veronica Roth|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1328559506s/13335037.jpg|13155899] and [b:Insurgent|11735983|Insurgent (Divergent, #2)|Veronica Roth|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1325667729s/11735983.jpg|15524542] back to back, before there was a movie deal. I stumbled upon them when I first bought my Kindle Fire and loved them, and even shared them with my old English teacher who also, loved them. But I waited on this one and I'm not sure why.

I’m pretty sure I decided to pick up this book because I saw the Divergent movie and remembered how much I loved it and figured I should finish it. But I also thought, because I saw a quick review on GoodReads that it had been spoiled for me, and what I thought was the ending sounded absolutely horrendously terrible so I decided just to not.

BUT, that wasn't the ending that I thought it was going to be. It was actually totally different, and I was really actually happy with it. I have this thing for when bad things happen to the main characters of books (No Spoilers!) but I was really really really happy with it. And Four, I seriously fell even more in love with Four. It helps that Theo James plays him the movie, right?

But it just seemed kind of thrown at you, it didn't REALLY felt like it was built up to, and what I liked about this series is that it didn't seem like The Maze Runner or whatever where people were calling the shots. Either way, I actually really enjoyed this book, and I’m happy the ending wasn't what I thought it was.

And I really love Four. Like it might actually rival my love for Nico DiAngelo, which as most of you probably know from my [b:House of Hades|12127810|The House of Hades (The Heroes of Olympus, #4)|Rick Riordan|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1464201430s/12127810.jpg|21539506] review, is strong.
