abon reviewed Divergent by Veronica Roth (Divergent, #1)
Review of 'Divergent' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Authors, publishers, and movie producers are trying to recreate the success of The Hunger Games. This book can be described by the phrase, "not quite enough." The characters are not quite interesting enough, the story is not quite compelling enough, the writing quality is not quite strong enough, and the romantic tension... man. Still, I liked it. The book has action and an interesting premise. But it's almost completely retold by the movie trailer.
