Publisher's summary

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 best-selling 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.

The young adult audiobooks on this list are truly timeless: grownup listeners can relate to YA classics in a whole new way or find new favorites among more recent offerings.

Sucks you in....

The book is A million times better than the movie!!!! Can't wait to read the next one. If you like the hunger games series you will love the divergent series!

Not as good as Divergent

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Some actual action please! No, moving from place to place and then griping with each other some more is not action! This second book in the series is filler material and served just two purposes: 1) to resolve the war among the factions and 2) reveal the Big Secret about what this whole fenced-in Chicago area is all about (which happens, literally, on the last page.)
I would have liked less whining from the main characters.

If you’ve listened to books by Veronica Roth before, how does this one compare?

Not as good.

Any additional comments?

Waiting for Book 3 and hoping it's better than Book 2.

Plain and simple, not good as the first!

Any additional comments?

Different type of world and writing then the first, much darker. Plain and simple not good as first.

Great sequel

I thoroughly enjoyed the second book for the Divergent trilogy. Listeners complained about Tris constantly be unsure or whining, but I think it contributed to the reality of certain situations. People feel insecure or doubt themselves all the time. The relationship was just right. Not too romantic, and not too dramatic. Ready for book 3!

Trying too hard

Although this second installment was a little better than the first book (Divergent), I felt it was trying too hard to again copy the formats and success of other unique best sellers. This book obviously copies elements and format of The Hunger Games as well as characters and situations from Twilight & Ender's Game. The story was ok but if you have read the other three series, this story line, the characters, and outline were distracting. If you're ok with that, you may enjoy the book more than I did. I was excited to start this series when I heard about it, but found myself feeling cynical about the elements of the book rather that just enjoying the story! To me, the author has just tried to copy what other authors have created and imagined!

Great book

The reader is great and so is the story. It's got a great balance between romance and action. I couldn't tell you which divergent book is my favorite because they are all pretty great!

Action packed

Great continuation to the series! I am looking very forward listening to Allegiant and Four. I hope Veronica Roth continues writing for a long time to come.

I liked the story of the movie better

i liked the story line of the movie better. it seemed to flow more. it hit on all the important parts without changing it too much. the back amd forth with tris and tabias got kind of annoying after awhile. but I did enjoy it.
