She turns to the future in a world that’s falling apart.

The No. 1 New York Times bestseller DIVERGENT – a major motion picture in 2014.

For sixteen-year-old Tris, the world changes in a heartbeat when she is forced to make a terrible choice. Turning her back on her family, Tris ventures out, alone, determined to find out where she truly belongs.

Shocked by the brutality of her new life, Tris can trust no one. And yet she is drawn to a boy who seems to both threaten and protect her. The hardest choices may yet lie ahead….

The first book in the DIVERGENT series that has swept the globe – selling millions of copies world-wide.

Critic reviews

"Though Galvin’s narration is concentrated on giving Tris the perfect voice, she never neglects the secondary characters. Poignant moments with Tris’s mother and Four, her leader and love, are subtly nuanced to let listeners hear the terror Tris often hides.... listeners will hold their breath waiting to see if she can survive the day." (AudioFile)

Took me three days cover to cover:)

Oh gosh I get that many may criticise it for being very basically written but as a sixteen year old myself I found it was engaging and easy to listen to throughout. The film is pretty boring in comparison and it still escapes me why they wouldn't develop the relationship between tobias and tris as much as there is in the book, and there is a lot more. Well over all I'm very very happy and can't wait to buy the rest of the series which I heard aren't as great of but I will hope anyway haha

Really enjoyed this!

Read this after the film and liked it even more. Not just for young adults a good adult read. Enough action tension and drama to keep one hooked until the end. I am going to read the next one right away as I want to know what happens next.

Intriguing

I enjoyed it. An intriguing dystopian future thriller. Imagine putting the Hunger Games in a bag, shaking it up & taking it out & this is what you get. If you like the Hunger Games you'll like this too.

Will always come back to this series

I love this book and the whole series, I read them when I was younger and always stuck with me.

Read them before the films were released (still made they cancelled the last film 😭😭)

First time listening to the audio book, been listening while at work and I work nights so it’s been keeping me sane!
Now on to the next one !

Relaxing Re-read

Loved this book as a teenager. Picked it with a credit to listen while I did housework. Still love it. The narrator has quite a relaxing voice, and a similar tone to the actress in the films.
