Divergent 3: Allegiant (2016)

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Tris and Four take their small group beyond the wall trying to escape a return to the Factions under Four's mother, Evelyn. In the process, they learn more about Chicago and what their lives mean to those beyond the wall, forcing them to return home once again to save their city and hope to once again make a stand that all of their lives matter. There are some hints through the series that make it somewhat reminiscent of The Hunger Games.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Tris is on the run with Four, but you can't run forever when all of the other Factions have been forced under Erudite's control. It seems a stroke of luck the Candor is willing to give them refuge only after undergoing their truth trials to prove their innocence. Jeanine couldn't have expected that her hunt for Tris would not bring her the ultimate control and return to regiment she craves, but instead brings her entire world crashing down with questions of what lies beyond the city wall now at the forefront as Divergents are no longer feared and hunted.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Tris knows she's different, but it's only as her world turns upside down that she discovers just how much. She has to learn very quickly that her parents knew of her difference and her closest ally, Four, who helps her fit in with Dauntless after she chooses to leave Abnegation, will have to learn how to escape and search for a way to return back home. A task that will be increasingly difficult as Jeanine has taken over Erudite and the rest of the Factions from there.
