Dystopian Review: Insurgent (Divergent #2) by Veronica Roth

Insurgent (Divergent #2)
by Veronica Roth
Narrator for the audiobook: Emma Galvin

Description:
One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves - and herself - while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.

Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable - and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth's much-anticipated second book of the dystopian DIVERGENT series is another intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature.


My Review:
The second book in the Divergent series is a rollercoaster of emotions.

Tris and Four are having troubles, Tris is traumatized, and their world is literally falling apart around them. Then add in betrayal and a horrific reality none of them could have imagined and you have one fantastic read.

Overall, loved this installment and highly recommend it to fans of the dystopian genre.

I borrowed this audiobook from the library right after reading the first one. The same narrator performs book two.
