Dystopia. 
 I liked this a LOT and had a hard time putting it down. I know a lot of readers have dystopia fatigue, but I'd put this on the top of the pile of Hunger Games readalikes; I'm eager to read the sequel ASAP. It made me think quite a lot about selflessness and bravery. The one thing I definitely have fatigue about is the romance setup where the girl is ignorant of her destiny and the guy knows everything and remains secretive to "protect" her, and his slow doling out of information and her naivete counts as their "attraction" to each other. Enough of that already. 
 Favorite quotes:(view spoiler)[ 
 "His absence will haunt their hallways, and he will be a space they can't fill. And then time will pass, and the hole will be gone, like when an organ is removed and the body's fluids flow into the space it leaves. Humans can't tolerate emptiness for long." 
 "My father says that those who want power and get it live in terror of losing it. That's why we have to give power to those who do not want it." 
 "Mom used to say that politeness is deception in pretty packaging." 
 "Those who seek peace above all else, they say, will always deceive to keep the water calm." 
 "I have realized that part of being Dauntless is being willing to make things more difficult for yourself in order to be self-sufficient." 
 "Something about him makes me feel like I am about to fall. Or turn to liquid. Or burst into flames." 
 "I used to think the Dauntless were fearless. That is how they seemed, anyway. But maybe what I saw as fearless was actually fear under control." 
 "'Maybe there's more we all could have done,' he says, 'but we just have to let the guilt remind us to do better next time.' I frown and pull back. That is a lesson that members of Abnegation learn -- guilt as a tool, rather than a weapon against the self." 
 "Caleb has a place in every memory of my childhood; he is part of my foundation." 
 "Human beings as a whole cannot be good for long before the bad creeps back in and poisons us again." 
 "Half of bravery is perspective. The first time I did this, it was one of the hardest things I had ever done. Now, preparing to jump off a moving train is nothing, because I have done more difficult things in the past few weeks than most people will in a lifetime."
