Allegiant

Title: Allegiant
Author: Veronica Roth
Pages: 526
Recommended Ages: 15 to Adult
Rating: 3 Brads

     Allegiant, the third and final book in the Divergent series is by far the worst of the three books.  We follow Trish and 4 once again, which is good cause you can't but help fall in love with the characters and this book is no different.  The problem with this book is that Veronica, the author, tries to hard to make this a trilogy.  This book doesn't flow like the other books, and fall well short of the standards she set in the first two books.
     Trish, 4, and their friends, and few enemies, have left Chicago, and are no living in a place that is monitoring the happenings with in the city. They find out Divergents aren't supposed to be bad but what the city was should  have been striving too.  This all makes sense, but then things start happening that don't follow the flow of the story line. I won't ruin them here, in case you are like me and need to read a book cause well it's part of the series.  There are some twists and turns and some things that may not be expected, and those are why this is rated at 3 Brads and not 2.
      I just personally feel this book could have been written in a much better way.  That things could have flowed better and far reaches to make this story work could have been avoided. But hey that is the opinion of just one critic.  Some of you may read this book just cause I say it's not great, and that's more power to you.

     If you do wish to read this book and finish off the series you can find it here: Allegiant
