Summary:
This is the last installment in the widely known Divergent Trilogy. It's very hard to give a spoiler for a book that is not the first, but I will try my best. Allegiant follows Tris and Tobias when they finally begin to actually figure everything out. What is the city they live in really? After they have defeated the Erudite in the previous book, they face even more difficulties on a whole different emotional scale.


Non-Spoiler-y Review:
First off if you have not yet been spoiled about the ending for this book, give yourself a pat on the back because, you sir/ma'am, are an anti-spoiler genius. I am not. I was spoiled, sadly. It was by Instagram and I have still not forgiven it, though I am addicted. I've actually finished this book over a week ago, so don't hate on my incorrect plot thingamajigs. Anyways, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, but maybe not the characters. Annoyed and tired of the same character flaws. I know that you need flaws to be a human being, but making the same mistakes over and over again is not a flaw... it's just plain stupidity. Sometimes I wonder if Veronica Roth meant for Tris and Tobias to annoy the fudge out of everyone. Or me because everyone else adores them. I rant about this to my friends a lot and they just think that there is something wrong with me because Theo James is 'so hot', but come on... he's 30. Not that age matters or anything pfft *puts hand awkwardly behind body*


Full Out Spoiler Review:
The ending though... I literally can't. I didn't cry when she actually physically died, I cried when Cara told Tobias and Christina. I was sad for Christina because she's a great character and all her friends literally died, but I was like screw Tobias because by the end of the book, I was done with him. There's nothing wrong with him... wait cross that... freakin' everything is wrong with him! (i'm kidding, but seriously) Am I the absolute only person who thought that he was an ass throughout the books? Sorry if you like him, but think about it. He gets mad at Tris for doing things he does himself and sometimes he's so stupid!!! I hated how Uriah died, like no. Veronica Roth, take away Tris, take away Tobias, but you ain't getting Uriah! It was so sad having his mom and brother by his side when they took the life machine thing away from him, so sad. Caleb, okay so people hate this guy and I honestly don't really mind him. He's just there for me; I don't hate him I don't love him. The fact that he is a traitor was sad, but I don't think it's his fault that Tris dies, okay? He never forced her to do it, he was going to volunteer himself to die but TRIS COULDN'T DEAL WITH THE FACT, so she did it. Holy macaroni people, I know it was supposed to be him, but let's move on??? Tobias and his mother was the most cliche part of this book. They live somewhat happily together later on and they end up really liking each other. Yay. Tori and her brother George, I think was his name. I found it so sad that Tori died thinking her brother was dead by Jeanine and not knowing the truth about her world. Oh man, the world??? Like who expected that it would be an experiment to purify people? And there are other cities like theirs, that is mind blowing. At least Tris found out about all that before she decided to die... not decided, more like was shot twice by David, but whatever.


Rating:
8.5/10
