Allegiant

Divergent Trilogy, Book 3

De: Veronica Roth

Narrado por: Emma Galvin, Aaron Stanford

The explosive conclusion to Veronica Roth's #1 New York Times bestselling Divergent series of books reveals the secrets of the dystopian world that captivated millions of readers and film fans in Divergent and Insurgent.

One choice will define you. What if your whole world was a lie? What if a single revelation—like a single choice—changed everything? What if love and loyalty made you do things you never expected?

Told from a riveting dual perspective, this third installment in the series follows Tris and Tobias as they battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature—and their selves—while facing impossible choices of courage, allegiance, sacrifice, and love.

And don't miss The Fates Divide, Veronica Roth's powerful sequel to the bestselling Carve the Mark!

Um....What? Are you kidding me? Betrayed!

Where does Allegiant rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I loved the first book and thought the second one was pretty good. I looked forward to the movie that was coming out. Then I listened this one. I thought Aaron did well stepping into the voice of Four and I did all right with the perspective jumping back and forth. But then we got to the.... I guess I'll call it the Big Plot Twist. I get that Roth wanted to be different and not follow convention, but I actually had to go back and listen to the Big Plot Twist again because I just couldn't believe that it was what it was. It soured the whole story for me, and I actually tend to like this sort of plot twists in many of my other books, but NOT in a YA fantasy and NOT from a first person narrator. I feel it violates actual writing convention and storytelling and immediately throws your reader out of the story. Honestly, I can only think that the producers of the movie Divergent found out about the Big Plot Twist and said, "Oh crap, there goes the franchise..." I might give Roth another try in the future, but I would certainly be a lot less trusting of her narrators....

disappointing end to the trilogy

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

so-so book-- after the first 2 volumes, which were performed in a way that enhanced the story, this is a less enticing follow up. 2 narrators- no. story also seems contrived.

Would you be willing to try another book from Veronica Roth? Why or why not?

maybe

Would you listen to another book narrated by Emma Galvin and Aaron Stanford ?

emma- yes; aaron, maybedid not work to have 2 narrators!!!

Do you think Allegiant needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

NO. let it be

Any additional comments?

I looked forward to this novel and was underwhelmed. almost gave it 2 stars rather than 3

I loved this series!

I loved and hated this book! it was a great read. Although I wished for an alternate ending. I hated the ending even though I cried and was pulled into the emotion of the story, I don't want to ruin anything for you who have not read it, but I will say well worth the credit.

i say tris doesnt die

two years latr they have a baby or get married nd they spread zeeks brothers ashes instead

i actually liked it

If you could sum up Allegiant in three words, what would they be?

revolutionary, surprising, heartfelt

Any additional comments?

i held off on getting this book because all of the reviews said how awful and disappointing it was. i found the opposite to be true. i liked the turn the book takes and i actually really enjoyed this one.
