What if your whole world was a lie?

"The thrillingly dark conclusion to the No. 1 New York Times bestselling DIVERGENT trilogy."

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.

Veronica Roth

Veronica Roth, the mind behind the Divergent series, has carved out her place as one of the leading voices in young adult dystopian fiction. Born in 1988 in Chicago, Illinois, Roth’s early life was filled with a love for storytelling, which she nurtured through writing short stories, novels, and more. Her path to success wasn’t instantaneous; it was a journey of honing her craft and embracing her unique voice.

Roth’s breakout moment came in 2011 with the publication of Divergent, the first book in a trilogy set in a future society divided into factions based on virtues. This high-stakes world, with its exploration of identity, fear, and rebellion, resonated deeply with readers, launching Roth into the spotlight. But Divergent wasn’t just a story about a girl caught in a conflict—it was a reflection of the complexities of choice and control, and how the decisions we make shape not just ourselves, but the world around us.

Roth’s writing style is known for its intensity, emotional depth, and fast-paced narrative. She’s not afraid to explore tough themes such as loss, fear, and the personal cost of revolution. Her characters, particularly Tris Prior, the series’ protagonist, are driven by a search for belonging and understanding in a fractured world. The Divergent series became an instant bestseller and soon expanded beyond books, with a film adaptation that introduced Roth's vision to an even wider audience.

Her success didn’t stop with Divergent. Roth continued to build on her dystopian roots with Insurgent and Allegiant, rounding out the Divergent trilogy with twists, turns, and gut-wrenching moments that kept readers on the edge of their seats. But even as she explored the end of a saga, Roth was not content to simply repeat herself—she ventured into new territory with her next works, such as Carve the Mark and The Fates Divide, which offered a fresh, space-faring look at the concepts of fate, power, and personal agency.

Roth’s impact on the YA genre is undeniable. Through her work, she has sparked conversations about identity, choice, and resistance—concepts that are especially relevant in today’s rapidly changing world. Her books have resonated with millions, sparking not only widespread popularity but deep, meaningful connections with fans who see themselves in her characters’ struggles and triumphs.

Veronica Roth doesn’t shy away from asking the tough questions, pushing her readers to consider the weight of their decisions and what it truly means to be free. As she continues to write and evolve, her books remain a mirror to the complexities of the world, with a focus on finding strength amidst uncertainty. In Roth’s own words, “We are all products of the choices we make, not the ones we’re told to make.” Her work invites us all to consider the ways we define ourselves and the power we hold in shaping the future.

Ending aside Divergent series has been quite typical y/ya dystopia trilogy. But since the ending did surprise me by not following the mainstream I'll give the extra half-star.

So you mean to tell me that an 18-year old boy doesn't think about sex at least once in the course of several weeks? I CALL SHENANIGANS! As a rule of thumb; don't write several POVs if they all sound exactly the same. Am I in Tris' head or Four's? Had it not been for the chapter headings I would never have known whose POV I was reading... Also, if you have to introduce a second POV to make your ending work, it doesn't really work, now does it? I'm not even sure Roth wrote most of this book. Oh, the dialogue and world-building was still as bland as the previous books, but the prose was a lot better, light-years better. Did Roth just wake up one day, suddenly and magically a better writer? Maybe she took some classes or something. Anyway, that's one of the stars right there. The second is for miscellaneous. Anyway, I'm done with this Big Mac now. I feel way too full, and sort of, but not quite, regret my decision.

Hated it! The earlier parts of the trilogy were OK, but this was a major bust in my opinion! The ending was just plain wrong!
