Synopsis: 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.

Opinion (Divergent Spoilers): OMG. I was not expecting Insurgent to be that good! I watched the movie first which is totally inappropriate in my opinion but, let's make it clear, the movie was nothing like the book. 

I started Insurgent with no expectations because a friend told me she got bored at the middle of the book and didn't end it, but a few months ago another friend of mine read it and told me I needed to read it! So I did it, and she was right. 

I feel like this one was better than Divergent in so many ways!!!

If you're doubting of reading it you really should, and if you've read it let me know what did you think of it :D Was it good? Bad? Boring? Meh?

The movie, oh gosh. I swear that when I was reading Insurgent I couldn't remember any of the things that were happening from the movie. I feel like the producers didn't care about the main plot, well, many plots that Insurgent had. There were so many important things that they've missed! Ugh!

Anyways, Insurgent, as a movie, was good, but as a movie adaptation...

Final verdict:

Book ★★★★☆

Movie ★★★☆☆
