Disclaimer: this review was written as soon as I finished
the book and so may not be fully coherent (there was just too much emotion).
I don’t even know where to begin with this.
Allegiant is the
3
rd instalment and conclusion in the Divergent series. For those of
you who have been living under a rock, Divergent tells the story of Tris Prior,
a girl born into a society divided into factions that are separated out
according to personality type. Tris, however, doesn’t fit into any faction; she
is known as Divergent. And the story pretty much unravels from there. The
second book, Insurgent, was fast paced and told the story of the aftermath of
Erudite’s mass killing of the people of Abnegation. In the final pages, we were
left with the knowledge that the outside world is ‘waiting for the Divergent’
to come and rescue them
And so here we are. I had this book for so long that I had
to actually reread Insurgent before eventually diving back into the world of
Factions (or lack of oooh spoilers)
