Allegiant Review

Hey it’s Meagan and today I’m here to review Allegiant by Veronica Roth
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?

The faction-based society that Tris Prior once believed in is shattered—fractured by violence and power struggles and scarred by loss and betrayal. So when offered a chance to explore the world past the limits she’s known, Tris is ready. Perhaps beyond the fence, she and Tobias will find a simple new life together, free from complicated lies, tangled loyalties, and painful memories.

But Tris’s new reality is even more alarming than the one she left behind. Old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless. Explosive new truths change the hearts of those she loves. And once again, Tris must battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature—and of herself—while facing impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice, and love- goodreads.com summery
         
I’m sorry but I can‘t really review this book without spoilers so… please don’t read below if you haven’t read Allegiant.
        
  Ok so I’m just going to cut to the chase and say that I didn’t enjoy this book very much. I enjoyed the 1st and most of the 2nd book in this series but I really don’t like the direction Veronica Roth took with this series. I feel like there were so many interesting things that could’ve been behind the fence that what was actually behind the fence was underwhelming.
         
Next I want to talk about Tobias’s POVs. To me his POVs were unnecessary (until the end), boring, and I got them confused with Tris POVs. When you have switching POVs I should never forget whose POV I’m reading from, and that happened a lot in Allegiant.
          
Last I’m gonna talk about the end (or as I call it depression town). As soon as you found out the security system was the death serum (which Tris could possible resist), I knew Tris was gonna sacrifice herself. The thing that upsets me about the end isn’t that Tris died it’s how she died. I mean she survived so much then she died from a gunshot… a stupid gunshot.
         
Overall I was not very impressed with this book. I didn’t enjoy the direction Veronica Roth went with the story. I also didn’t enjoy the Tobias POVs they were plain and just like Tris’s. And finally the end was just depressing.

That’s it from me…

Bye!
