Insurgent by Veronica Roth
The sequel to ‘Divergent’ isn’t as good. Tris spends ages brooding and being bitey and snappy. But as the factions fight amongst themselves, a cliffhanger ending reveals the profound truth of the oblique societal structure and what the Divergent really are. The ending promises that the 3rd novel ‘Allegiant’ should be better than this disappointment.
