uglies: By Scott WesterfeldIn a world where ugly is your past and pretty is your future, there is always one question that should be asked. What if there was neither? Yet no one really asked it, you were turned pretty at the age of sixteen on your birthday. Her best friend had already turned and she was left behind all alone in uglyville. One night Tally bumped into Shay in the woods as she discreetly tried to make her way back to her dorm, and a new friendship began. Even though Shay always mentioned that she didn't really want to become pretty Tally never thought that she actually meant it. One morning, Shay explained to Tally that she was leaving. Somewhere she could stay the way she is. After the "disappearance" of Shay, Tally was threatened by the specials, if she didn't find Shay then she wouldn't be turned, and so her journey to Shay began. But on this journey she will learn more then just the location of her friend. She will learn that pretty comes with a price.

FOUR: By Veronica RothAfter the death of his beloved, Tobias Eaton will never be the same. So instead of writing about the present, author Veronica Roth decided to write about the past. In this story line we travel back in time and explore the journey of Tobias Eaton or as he now calls himself Four. If you have read the previous books in this series you would know that the first book was originally from Beatrice's perspective as her story formed when she joined Dauntless. As the story went on we were able to see things from Tobias's perspective more frequently. Yet we were never able to understand how he emerged as a Dauntless as much as we understood Beatrices emerging. Now we are able to see why Tobias is the way he is and how he felt when he first met Beatrice as well as getting some extra scenes from previous books but from Tobias's perspective.

Allegiant is the 3rd book out of 4 in the series Divergent. If you haven't had the chance to read the first 2 books, then I suggest that you do otherwise Allegiant would be much to confusing. Pages: 526 Rating:
