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.

Great

Great book, good story can't wait for the next one! The characters were preformed good and story was great, can't wait to see if the movie is close to it.

AWESOME BOOK!

I 1st fell in Love with the movies. Now on Audible, the books are so much better!

pretty good

I enjoyed the story line of this book. It was much better than the movie and I hope the 3rd book will bring a great conclusion to the story. Or at least a good continuation for other authors to build upon.

It was amazing

I enjoy listening to books and this one was perfect for my age and type of book I like. I am a person who love romance even though I am kind of young. I recommend this book for ages 11-13 a small gap. If you enjoyed this book I think you would like hunger games. The only reason the voice was not the best in my opinion was because it was not how I imagined her to sound. Otherwise I hope you enjoy this book.

A bit Too Emotional

I would say this book is a bit too emotional of a sequel to the first. I was a HUGE fan of the first book. But in this one our main character spends waaaaaaay more time talking about her shell-shock and love. I also found some of the overarching plot between the two books a bit hard to believe. I think it recovers at the end, but certainly not as good.

great story, even better narrator :)

i cannot recommend this audiobook enough. a childhood favorite with a great narration makes it great for adults too!

10/10

An Exceptional Roller Coaster Ride!

Wow! I literally have no words to describe how great a book Insurgent truly is. I just finished listening to it a few minutes ago and I'm still reeling from the amazing storyline. I didn't want to write this review because Insurgent is too emotional and personal for me, but I'm writing it anyway because I feel like I have to, and even though I'm a total book fanatic, I have never been so obsessed with anything before!

I love everything about Insurgent. I love its brutal honesty and its lack of sugarcoating. I love the dystopian world Veronica Roth has created. She gave us a peek at how all the other factions operate along with the personalities behind the people. I love the depth of this book, which seems to be absent in most YA novels nowadays. I love Tris. I love Four. I love their relationship. The characters are very flawed, very human, yet this is exactly what makes them so perfect. I also love the fact that Veronica knows more about the true meaning of love, loyalty and sacrifice than probably any author I've ever known.

Insurgent is just as good as Divergent. Seriously, they are both so excellent it's impossible to say which is better. In this book however, the twists came as huge surprises. I never saw them coming. There are a lot of heart breaks in this story. Having to deal with the grief and guilt of losing her close friend and her parents, Insurgent is about Tris trying to regain her inner strength and how she embraces her Divergence.

I have very mixed and raw emotions after listening to Insurgent. There are some books which you just devour like a candy and forget about it in a few short hours. However, there are some books which you simply cannot get over no matter how hard you tried, and as time passes, that book eventually becomes part of who you are. Insurgent is one of them. It celebrates humanity under the most difficult of circumstances. It is powerful stuff.

Sometimes a bad narrator can ruin a good book, but Emma Galvin did a fantastic job! She is exactly how I picture Tris would sound like, fierce, determined and direct. I can't imagine anyone else doing the narration.

My only complaint about this series is that I'll have to wait about a year before the third book comes out. This is sheer torture and it's going to drive me insane! I am positive that I'm not the only person feeling this way. Just buy it! You wouldn't want to miss the book of the year.
