Another dystopian tale in the vein of the Hunger Games, yet with a different twist. Instead of being seperated into geographical districs, human kind is seperated by personality type. Upon turning 16, young adults are given an aptitude test to see which type they best fit in. Most generally stick with their birth type, but some choose to change factions (a huge deal, no longer can they be part of their family). And then, there are some who display "divergence" and do not fall easily into one category.

This is true of Tris (Beatrice) who begins life as an Abnegation (self-less, humble, do gooders) but finds out she is Divergent and instead chooses to leave her faction for the Dauntless (warriors, brave, ruthless).

While trying to complete her initiation into this faction, a variety of events unfold which will test her abilities, and show her that perhaps society isn't meant to be so divided.

Nice to see another strong leading lady, and nice that her love interest treats her as such. No wilting flowers here. Lots of violence and blood.
