Waiting on Wednesday #10





WOW is hosted by Jill of Breaking the Spine.


Divergent by Veronica Roth
From Goodreads:
In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is—she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.

During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles to determine who her friends really are—and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes infuriating boy fits into the life she's chosen. But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she discovers a growing conflict that threatens to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her.
This week, the first 100 pages of Divergent was posted online here. I began reading it and was immediately obsessed with this world and the craziness of the factions. I was so sucked into it when the 100 page came I was upset that I could not continue the story. I think I would do anything to get my hands on an ARC of this book.

Can't wait for this book coming out: May 3, 2011

LOL this is why I try to never read excerpts of books because it makes me crazy when they come to an end and I can't read the whole book.
I've heard great things about this one so it is definitely on my wishlist.
