Honestly if you haven't read the books go read them now!
NOW, what are you still doing here?
(Geena that means you, don't read this until you read the books!)
The best set of books I have read, taking nothing away from the hunger games I have a deep love for that trilogy, like crazy intense love. But I have read Divergent more resently and I honestly just can't get it out of my head... It's nearly Christmas and I'm sat here listening to Christmas songs trying to drag myself out of the black hole in my life that is Divergent.
All I keep thinking is how I wish I could be in it, how what if Tris hadn't sacrificed herself in the end... What if what if!?
Plus I can't believe she died! I cried. No word of a lie. I was gob-smacked! No way did she get past the death serum to be shot and killed! I thank The Lord that she managed to release the memory serum else I don't know what I would have done! Gone crazy probably. Although in respect of good literature no sane author could have killed a character like Tris and have her fail in her mission at the same time.
And, Tris what a character she is! Her whole story has me craving to be a better, braver and more open minded person. She has me wishing I could walk in her footsteps and do what she does, with her bravery and her selflessness.
I know it's literature, and I'm sure many people could call me crazy for getting so involved in three books. Honestly, when I was sat in the cinema ready to watch Catching Fire, the trailer for divergent came on, I was interested and even more so when it said 'based on the best selling novel'. I turned to my friend and said I' need to come watch that! And I need to reed the book. I need to read that first'
Now I've got so obsessed that I've bought two friends the books for Christmas after telling them that they just HAVE to read them!
I'm still finding myself thinking of different parts... Still having the same reactions over and over in my head, like 'Oh My God no way did that just happen' or 'now way did she just do that'.
When Tris' mum gets her self killed to save Tris, sobbed like a baby. But then when we meet David and I don't know about you but I always found myself thinking he loved her. But for him to shoot Tris, what a bastard... And he gets to forget that he killed her and Tobais has to walk around seeing him knowing that he killed the girl he loved. So unfair... I totally understand why he went back to Chicago.
Speaking of Tobais, I never really settled on a feeling for his mother... I disliked and distrusted her just as Tris did but could she really mean well towards her son. I tried to put myself in her shoes but couldn't get there, I couldn't imagine abandoning my son and faking my death... Who does that?!
I just wish i'd found the books earlier. I also hope that the film is as good of a representation as The Hunger Games was. The Hunger Games blew me away with how close the film was to how I saw it in my head as I read it!
The ups and downs of the books were crazy and I want to meet Veronica Roth, Shake her hand, hug her, be a crazy fan girl, be her friend, get her to teach me to write a novel like her! She is amazing! A new idol of mine!
But enough ass kissing for now...
On to my pathetically unrealistic dream of being in one of the films... I know how laughable it is... I'm not an actress, but I'm just so in love with the story that I wish I was just so I could be apart of this master piece. I know as a fan I am and that if it wasn't so successful it wouldn't be a film and blah blah blah... But again I wish I had found the books earlier so I could have been apart of the fandom that made the films feasible.
Anyway enough of my blabberings. I could quite easily keep going round in circles finding different things to say but you all know what happens in the books... Still though OH MY GOD... I still can't get over the ending... I want to know what would happen if he hadn't died... Did it even cross Veronica Roth's mind to not kill her or was that always her intention... Plus what would have happened if Tris had lived... Would they have got a happily ever after? Would thy have stayed at the compound or would they have returned to the city? I'm swimming with questions!!!!
