    Driving is a fact of life. We are all spending more and more time on the road, and traffic is an issue we face everyday. This audiobook will make you think about it in a whole new light.

    Story

    The author just quotes from other peoples research. There is no passion behind the topic and is merely a dull collection of facts from haphazardly conducted research. I could not finish listening as I couldn't make it seem worth my time - not worth it!

    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.

    Grant says: "It's not for me. Loved it anyway."

    Would you try another book from Veronica Roth and/or Emma Galvin?

    No. At least not a sequel in this series.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    The best scenes were the dauntless training and initiation related. The paintball scene especially.


    If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Divergent?

    Every single love scene between tris and four. They were sickeningly erotic, and downright dirty. There is one scene where I'm almost sure they had sex, but I skipped to the next chapter. those scenes were also cheesy.
