Boeken : Veronica Roth
De afgelopen maanden heb ik de onderstaande boeken gelezen. Deze boeken zijn geschreven door Veronica Roth.
Ik had al eerder de films Divergent (2014), Insurgent (2015) en Allegiant (2016) gezien, dus toen ik de boeken kon gaan lezen, heb ik dat maar meteen gedaan.
Wat kan Veronica Roth goed schrijven zeg. Heel snel zit je al in de wereld die zij beschrijft en eigenlijk heb ik alle vier de boeken bijna in één ruk uitgelezen.
Divergent
One choice can transform you. Beatrice Prior’s society is divided into five factions—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). Beatrice must choose between staying with her Abnegation family and transferring factions. Her choice will shock her community and herself. But the newly christened Tris also has a secret, one she’s determined to keep hidden, because in this world, what makes you different makes you dangerous.
Insurgent
As war surges in the factions of dystopian Chicago all around her, Tris attempts to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.
Allegiant
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.
Four : A Divergent Collection
The fourth story, ‘The Traitor’, runs parallel with the events of Divergent, giving readers a glimpse into the decisions of loyalty – and love – that Tobias makes in the weeks after he meets Tris Prior.
