Novel Nerd : Insurgent - Veronica Roth (2nd book)

Insurgent by Veronica Roth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved this one!

But that was a give in since I was so in love with the first one.
There was soo much action and so much weight the characters have to carry on their shoulders regarding all they've now learned about their world.

Divergent touched upon a couple things and also hinted that the society was hiding something and there would be more that the people never knew about. And Insurgent goes into more detail and it definitely kept my at the edge of my seat.

The main thing I have to say is the Ending completely Blew me the heck away!
Nothing you'd expect and I almost couldn't believe when I heard that Ms. Roth was doing another novel... that's right! a third book.

Just because the end leaves you saying OMFG!!!!
I dont think I can wait much longer to get my hands on a copy of the third one, Caaamaaannn Veronica Roth!!! speed it upppp !!! =D

NOVEL NERD: Divergent - Veronica Roth

Divergent (Divergent, #1)Divergent by Veronica Roth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really loved This one! I read the Hunger Games series and enjoyed that as well but I feel like Divergent is comparable slightly to that series. However, I also believe that this novel will be more suitable to readers that require a slightly more "real" story. What I mean is that The Hunger Games series revolves around a story about having to murder other children in order to have a closer shot at survival. I love the fantasy of that but that doesn't really happen in our world. Divergent was more relatable to me. The fact that the main character is Divergent and doesn't actually fit into one said group, and has to live carefully as not to get found out, is all more relatable. Kind of reminds me of how in life we all sometimes try to fit in with certain people. Only, In Divergent, If Tris Doesn't fit in, she could be killed.

Very exciting, I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. The love interest was adorable too and definitely relatable (who doesn't fall for their teacher now and then? *hint hint*) Would reccomend this to any readers that enjoyed the hunger games! :)
