"Divergent" by Veronica Roth.
It's been a while since I posted something here!
I'm reading some dystopian YA novels published in the wake of the Hunger Games to see how the trend is developing and if it's in danger of falling into the same pitfalls as the paranormal trend that previously dominated YA fiction and still does to some extent, and since this one is proving to be the most popular of the releases, it felt like a natural pick for the first read. I honestly didn't expect it to piss me off as much as it did.
