I was pretty disappointed by this book. To start with I have to say that Tris has to be one of the most unlikeable main characters I've ever read. There is very little that is endearing about her. So thank goodness that there was Four's (Tobias') point of view or it would have been complete torture. To add to that, I have to say I am so disappointed this won best YA Fantasy on Goodreads for 2013. It left me wondering if people actually read the book before voting or if they just voted based on her past books because I know there had to have been better YA fantasy books last year. It wouldn't have been hard. 
 **Spoilers** 
 The book doesn't start out very strong. And doesn't really have any strong points. It astonishes me the way she write characters to be very flat. It's like oh you've killed my boyfriend, you went against me for this, oh thats okay we can all be best friends still. No. Thats just not how things would be. The relationship between Tris and Four is just painful to read. It's supposed to be the one true love thing but it just comes off as very juvenile and naive. The author kills off characters for no apparent reason, it just doesn't add anything to the story. I think its supposed to make you feel something but it doesn't because its just done with so little feeling in the novel. The ending was predictable from a mile away. I think the killing of Tris was supposed to be the piece de resistance, however the scene fell flat. How much more emotional would it have been if instead of talking to her dead mother, she was talking to her brother as she lay dying? Overall I would say to just stop at reading book two in the series. The way this novel ended was just too expected. The ending especially was littered with sentences that were supposed to be deep and meaningful. Too contrived.
