In Beatrice’s world, the society is broken into 5 factions. At the age of 16, each person must decide
which faction to join. Leaving the faction of one’s upbringing means a separation from parents, family, and every known thing. Before making that choice, each person is given a test to determine which faction would be ideal for him/her based on aptitude. Beatrice gets unusual results that mystify the person giving the test. The person encourages Beatrice to never tell anyone about the results. On the day where the factions are announced, Beatrice chooses to leave her family and her Abnigation life for a life of adventure and risk. Initiation is intense. Adjusting to the dramatic lifestyle changes is tough. Fist fighting is completely in opposition to the lifestyle Beatrice knew. All of it must be overcome, or she risks being factionless. Does Tris, as she refers to herself, survive initiation into Dauntless? What about the other danger that awaits her when she realizes what another faction is doing with Dauntless people. The risks that she’s willing to take for those she loves are truly remarkable. I absolutely loved this book! It was not just another dystopian Hunger Games wannabe.
