Divergent: the book and movie ...

Ok, how can I put this?!!

 I like Divergent, I really do; why wouldn’t I when the main character is a young short brave girl, (my favorite type of heroines) who is living in a society with 5 factions which are Candor (the honest), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), Erudite (the intelligent) and Abnegation (the selfless), and our hero, Beatrice, has to choose one of them to join for the rest of her life. Well, it’s a hard decision to make when you are only 16; thankfully the government is there to help. They provide an aptitude test to make them determine which faction they belong to. So far so good, till Beatrice’s test result informs her that she is Divergent and she is a “harm” on the society.  What will she do? What she is going to choose? How is she going to hide and handle her secret?? The answer for that is up to you, you have to read the book to find out.

The book is obviously belongs to Dystopian, Post-apocalyptic Literature with little bits of romantic touches (Tris falls for her instructor Four, (yes, like the number) and they share slow-developing and not rushed love story, Platonic love). It is easy and fun to-be-read for YA and even adults (why not). it is written by the American novelist Veronica Roth and it is the first book in the Divergent Trilogy… B-B-But …

But, something is missing in the book, like magic or something (I don’t know how to describe it). This “missing thing” wasn’t missed in the movie; I love the movie, the director takes the book to a new high level. Don’t judge me but the movie is so much better than the book, why? Because the themes, the characters, the factions and everything are more believable and graspable in the movie than the book. I FOUND the magic .
