Divergent by Veronica Roth

 In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago

world, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to

the cultivation of a particular virtue-Candor (the honest).

Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the

peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day

of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to

which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice.

the decision is between staying with her family and being

who she really is-she can't have both. So she makes a

choice that surprises everyone, including herself.

During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice

renames herself Tris and struggles alongside her fellow

initiates to live out the choice they have made. Together

they must undergo extreme physical tests of endurance

and intense psychological simulations, some with

devastating consequences. As initiation transforms them

all, Tris must determine who her friends really are-and

where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating

sometimes exasperating boy fits into the life she's chosen.

But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from

everyone because she's been warned it can mean death.

And as she discovers unrest and growing conflict that

threaten to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also

learns that her secret might help her save those she

loves..or it might destroy her.
