One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.

Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

A thrilling sequel to the heart-clenching tale of Beatrice Prior who continues her struggle inside this war-torn world, only to realise that her life is more precious than ever upon the realisation that you don't appreciate what you have, until you don't have it. While struggling to learn the ways of the Dauntless, Beatrice continues her lifelong struggle between what she believes as right and wrong. A must read for keen readers and young-adults...

Like the first book, it really latches you in to it. Yes, it's a little slow at the start, but then later on into the book the pace picks up and just carries you along with it.
