There are so many dystopian novels out there and I truly think that this is one of my favorites. (And now it's a movie!) Like many YA novels,
Divergent is written from the point of view of a teenage girl at an existential crisis in her life, which she then overcomes and saves the world. Veronica Roth brings that boring old plot line to life with her vivid characters and dramatic details. Despite the redundancy of many YA fictions, Roth's future, though plagued with death and destruction, is unique in its own way.
