Divergent

Marsh's Book Report on Divergent (Divergent #1) by Veronica Roth

     Beatrice lives in a society where the citizens are separated into factions: Amity, Candor, Erudite, Abnegation, and Dauntless. The faction each member belongs to is decided by an aptitude test.  Beatrice has always been a member of Abnegation, but on the day of the aptitude test she gets shocking results.

     I thought this was a great book.  I loved it.  This book is very intense, witty and filled with great fights.  My favorite characters were Four and Beatrice.  I admired how they were both very strong, cunning and confident.  You cannot stop reading this book.  Once you start, you have to see what happens next.  I recommend this to people who loved The Hunger Games.  I give it 5 monsters.

Marsh & Emiline

I'm reading Divergent by Veronica Roth and my wishes are:

1.  I wish there wasn't tension between between Erudite and Abnegation so Beatrice's Mom could visit her brother, Caleb.

2. I wish the Divergent could have a separate faction where there are higher standards for learning.  And the Divergent can also be used for special operations to fight against opposing threats to society.

3.  I wish I could have an epic paintball war with my friends like the Dauntless did for training.  I would like to go out in an abandoned city in the middle of the night for the paintball war.

  

I'm reading Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling and my wishes are:

1.  I wish I could know more about the Tales of the Three Brothers.  It's such a fascinating story.

2.  I wish Harry had the Resurrection Stone so he could bring the people who were important to him back to life.  Sirius' and Dumbledore's deaths were heartbreaking.

3.  I wish I could go to the Lovegood's house.  I would love to see all the mysterious items they have, and I would like to meet Luna.  Luna reminds me of me.
