This past summer, during a cranky moment, I made a post about the “Diversity Surprise.” Well, Veronica Roth’s Divergent series is what somewhat sparked that post. While the main characters may not be characters of color, Roth did an excellent job of filling her futuristic world with a diverse population that accurately represents a world based on today’s population. Despite my snarky reaction, I still enjoyed the series and am excited about it’s conclusion, Allegiant, that comes out on Tuesday.

One choice will define you.
What if your whole world was a lie?
What if a single revelation—like a single choice—changed everything?
What if love and loyalty made you do things you never expected?
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.
Told from a riveting dual perspective, Allegiant, by #1 New York Times best-selling author Veronica Roth, brings the Divergent series to a powerful conclusion while revealing the secrets of the dystopian world that has captivated millions of readers in Divergent and Insurgent. (text via Goodreads)
