Goodreads:

The faction-based society that Tris Prior once believed in is shattered—fractured by violence and power struggles and scarred by loss and betrayal. So when offered a chance to explore the world past the limits she’s known, Tris is ready. Perhaps beyond the fence, she and Tobias will find a simple new life together, free from complicated lies, tangled loyalties, and painful memories. 

But Tris’s new reality is even more alarming than the one she left behind. Old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless. Explosive new truths change the hearts of those she loves. And once again, Tris must battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature—and of herself—while facing impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice, and love.

My Thoughts:

COVER CRAZY: Allegiant (Divergent #3)

Is Veronica Roth the best at revealing things or what? When she announced the title of Divergent's 3rd book, she (or maybe not her, maybe her publisher or whoever made her do it) made a video. Now, just to reveal the cover of Allegiant, she gets to be interviewed by Ryan Seacrest on Today. Wow! A cover reveal on television. Yeah, Veronica Roth is that awesome. But let's get to the best part, shall we? ALLEGIANT's cover!!

So, the third book is really orange. Is it really that orange? Or is this because of the quality of the image? It's a bit too bright when compared to the first two books, and that logo is not familiar. I can't wait to find out what this is all about. There's a few more months to go before Allegiant's release, so patience. 

If you have missed Veronica's interview, here is the video:

Divergent Book 3 Title, Announced!

Finally! The question every Divergent fan has been asking has now been answered.

What will be the title of the third Divergent book?

There have been many guesses of what the title will be, a few of which were sort of believable, and some were funny (referring to DETERGENT). But no need to fret people, for Veronica Roth herself announced the third book's title in the "epic as a book trailer" video below.

Divergent 3 Update

A typical Divergent fan would definitely freak out (positively or negatively) with this announcement. Why? Because...

1. We partially know how the cover for the third book will look like. It's ORANGE!!! It's freaking Orange, which by the way, is my favorite color.

2. The cover is not complete. I don't know if you can even call it a book cover at the moment. But the point is that most fans (including me, sometimes) hate having to wait and being teased like this.

3. The third book will not go on sale (in the U.S.) until October 22, 2013. 

4. TITLE please. Fans are very eager to know what the title for the third book will be. Unfortunately, this teaser does not include the title. Is it really going to be Resurgent? Or will it be Detergent? What?

So, thoughts? Comments? Anything to say about this?

One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you.

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.

New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth's much-anticipated second book of the dystopian DIVERGENT series is another intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature.

DIVERGENT (Divergent #1)

Author: Veronica Roth

Publisher: Katherine Tegen Books

Number of Pages: 487

Date Published: April 25, 2011

Genre: Young Adult Dystopia

Goodreads:

In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue--Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is--she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.

During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles to determine who her friends really are--and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes infuriating boy fits into the life she's chosen. But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she discovers a growing conflict that threatens to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her.
