The Plot:

"One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love. 

Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so." - Goodreads

Review:

First things first, Tobias and Tris really needed to sort their crap out in this book, pretty much every scene they were in they were arguing about something or lying to each other. I adore their relationship so I found that to be quite annoying to say the least.

Insurgent gets off to quite a slow start, however, towards the end this book finally did start to give us answers to many of the questions raised in Divergent, including the burning question of what's outside the fence?!

There were plenty of hair pulling incredibly frustrating moments, but I am really looking forward to reading Allegiant, and seeing what happens now they know the truth as to why the factions exist. I just hope that Tris and Tobias resolve things, I don't think I'd be able to handle another book of consistent bickering!
