Allegiant (526 Pages)

This is the third and final book of the Divergent, Insurgent series. In this book, Veronica Roth has chosen a format of alternating point of view between Tris and Tobias. The story told here includes both Tris and Tobias ( and several others) escaping from Chicago. Wanting freedom from the faction divided society, they end up in a compound outside the fence surrounding the city. Here, they find that people live in comfort, with plenty of food and care. However, they soon discover that the compound is able to monitor everything going on in Chicago. A room with multiple monitors are keeping tabs on the residents of Chicago 24/7. Every person, every faction can be seen and their activities are constantly monitored. The sound is turned down because there are so many monitors, that it would be difficult to hear if they were all on simultaneously. It is here that Tris and Tobias learn that the compound is part of a large government study of genes. Following a Purity War, people are divided into two groups: Genetically Damaged ) GD and those whose genes are pure GP. This future distopian society has been using genetic engineering to modify the citizens making some of them "genetically pure." In order to prevent a war between the factions in Chicago, the big-wigs in the compound decide to use a memory serum on the residents living there. This will erase almost all of their memories. Tris and Tobias are infuriated at this idea, and with some of their friends, they plan a way of preventing this. It is a fast paced read!
