I think it's best we do it your therapist's way.

Insurgent by Veronica Roth
(sequel to Divergent)
1/5   -bad
adventure, dystopia, young adult

One choice can transform you--or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves--and herself--while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.

Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable--and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

I thought it started pretty slow. I didn't really feel in to it, and didn't feel the characters much. It's a fast read though, and I quickly found myself 200 pages deep.

320 pages in, and there's still no connection to the story for me. It's slow and boring. I don't like any of the characters either. I don't remember particularly liking them in the first book, but now I think I actually dislike them.

It was pretty predictable in my opinion. I have no desire to read the next book.
