Divergent
By: Veronica Roth
was actually my favorite character in the book. He had the most depth and more dimension than Tris. He is wise beyond his years as though he is 21 going on 40. Tris’ formidable skills weren’t believable to me, but somehow Tobias’ sage wisdom felt authentic and was a crucial element to the story. I’m hoping that his innate maturity will continue throughout the series because the 21 to 16 age gap is significant and why I can never be a true lover of young adult fiction.

" Sometimes I forget that I can hurt you. That your capable of being hurt."
