Summary: In a future Chicago, sixteen-year-old Beatrice Prior must choose among five predetermined factions to define her identity for the rest of her life, a decision made more difficult when she discovers that she is an anomaly who does not fit into any one group, and that the society she lives in is not perfect after all.

Review: This is a must read for readers that really enjoy dystopian genre books.  I absolutely loved reading about Tris as her character developed and struggled to find where she belongs.  She makes a hard choice by leaving the selfless life of the Abnegation that she has always known for a new life in the Dauntless faction, a life where everything is the complete opposite.  Here she is tested on a daily basis and has to overcome obstacles and make choices that may affect the future.  For those of you that enjoyed the Hunger Games and other similar books, this is a definite must-read which will surpass all of your expectations.
