MY FAVOURITE BOOKS


I love reading since I was little because it is the only way I can forget about everything for a moment and just focus on the amazing story I am reading.

My favourite genre of books at the moment are science fiction and adventures. I also love the dystopian fiction which is a literary genre that explores social and political structures in the creation of a degraded society in the future. 



One of my favourite dystopian novels is Divergent by Veronica Roth. It is a trilogy and it consists of Divergent (2011), Insurgent (2012) and Allegiant (2013) and she also wrote another book, Four (2014), explaining some moments of the story from another perspective. 

The books describe a post-apocalyptic version of Chicago, closed by a chain link fence and where society is divided into five factions: Abnegation for the selfless, Candor for the honest, Amity for the peaceful, Dauntless for the brave, and Erudite for the knowledgeable. Everyone when they turn 16 must choose a new faction, or remain in the one they have been raised in. 

The whole trilogy follows Beatrice Prior (Tris), a 16 years old girl who has an aptitude for more than one faction. She is special. She is a Divergent. However, it's not safe to be a Divergent and Tris has to keep it in secret. Tris gets into a captivating journey to discover the secrets of the factions, protect herself from those who will kill her for her divergence, and find what is hidden outside the chain link fence... 

They have also done the movies of the books, Divergent, Insurgent and on March 2016 Allegiant.
The actors of the movies are Shailene Woodley as Beatrice Prior, Theo James as Tobias Eaton and Ansel Elgort as Caleb Prior.
