Read it, and I thought it was pretty good. It is definitely an interesting idea, by sectioning off people into what they are most adept at, but it has been done before. The writing wasn't the best, but it was good enough. I prefer Hunger Games to this, in the dystopian section, but these books also dig deeper into emotional and societal turmoil, something The Hunger Games just scratched the surface with.

 

I read Insurgent, but didn't think it was as good. The adventure of discovering yourself that Tris went through in the first book was really what hooked me, and Insurgent just didn't have the same flare. It was still good, don't get me wrong, just not AS good.

Insurgent to me was like Catching Fire, if you all want to stick with the Hunger Games comparisons. I read it, hoping for the same awesome story as the fist(not literally the same story, you know what I mean) But I was disappointed.. it turned out to be rather pale in comparison to Divergent. It just didn't draw me in as deeply, just as Catching Fire failed to do as well.

*Possible spoilers, not sure where all these things happen*

Read all 3, the ending of the 3rd was weak really. Once they left the city and found the compound and all the stuff about it being a big government rebuilding scheme or whatever it was I started to lose interest in it. Still went to the end for the same reason as I finished Hunger Games: I wanted to know what happened, just so I'd know, rather than because it was overly interesting.
