Best Books In the Divergent Trilogy

There are only 3 books why is there a top tens list

Is there any competition here? I guess there is, but I thought this was easily the worst out of all four books. I just thought it was agonizingly slow-paced, Tris and Four were both being immature brats, and it seemed like everyone in Chicago was either a complete moron or a complete jerk. Evelyn's rise to power is neat, though.

This is my favorite because I strongly dislike the characters in pretty much all the books except this one. Even though the story sorta goes off the rails, it's not as bad as what they did in the movie (*gags*). I felt like a lot of the deaths in the series felt kinda bland, but Uriah's is very painful and intimate because it was indirectly Four's fault...especially since he promised had Zeke to take care of him. Tris does pretty much the first likeable thing in the series by sacrificing herself out of love for Caleb. That is truly the one and only time I liked her character in the trilogy. And then Peter had a phenomenal character arc when he deliberately erased his memory out of self-hatred at the monster he had turned into.

As far as prequels go, this was quite well written. I was never really into Four himself, but this book really opened him up like none of the others had. I love how it really explains the way things in Chicago plummeted in the couple years before Tris became an initiate. Speaking of Tris...I was reading this like three years after I had read the rest of the series, and wondering why I had hated the trilogy so much, and then Tris came in and the story got so much worse. So yeah, Tris is awful in my opinion.
