I give this four stars, with a warning that it doesn't actually earn them until its second half. The first half is very dry and it pretty much entirely set-up with limited character development. I am still undecided as to whether I actually like Tris as a main character; she seemed very generic dystopian female lead. You know, the ones that are tough but indecisive about whether their toughness is right. EVERY FLIPPING SECOND. But I thought the action and characters were well-handled in the second, even if the ending seemed a little too... I don't want to say easy because it had harsh moments but things moved a little too scripted. And yes, the secret behind the Divergent isn't particularly compelling. But overall, I really enjoyed the way things played out and the final stages of initiation. 
 Oh yes and perhaps the most important of all... THERE IS NO LOVE TRIANGLE. \o/
