Somehwere up there, Tris’s voice pierced the simulation I was under, and I felt her hand on my chest, drawing me back to reality.-Tobias Somewhere up there is the chair I sat in while I was running the attack simulation, and a smear of Tris’s father’s blood on the wall. Above me, panes of glass reflect light in every direction. Not many authors can do that, and that’s why I had to focus on this for a bit-I loved seeing what made Four’s soul so full of turmoil, and I loved seeing him work through it all-it added a much needed layer to the story that I never expected possible, transitioning from T-T seamlessly and without a single glitch-I enjoyed every second of each POV. Roth wrote an intricately woven web for Tris’s counterpart, and just like in Tris’s POV, the writing was vivid, imaginative, and flawless. Refreshing, well-written, confused, and meaningful, not a moment was wasted in Four’s head. She welcomed those readers who hadn’t had a chance to be in his head into the inner workings of his mind, and overall I think people enjoyed it. For those of you who haven’t, well, it was a surprise to me as well that Roth chose to make the final installment in alternating views. Anyone who has read the novellas in Tobias’s POV knows that Veronica Roth can write for both the female and male POV with no problem. Told in dual POV, we get an insight into Tobias’s head that helped us to see his inner turmoil and strong feelings for Tris. She covers my hand with her own, which is warm and strong, and the corners of her mouth curve into a smile.-Tobias

Now she looks pale and small, but her eyes make me think of wide-open skies that I have never actually seen, only dreamed of.-Tobias A piece of her hair falls into her eyes, and I am brushing it back before she even notices it. Many different thoughts cross my mind when I think of Allegiant, but outcasting it based on one event has never been one of them. Yes, things happened that can never be ‘undone’, but there is so much more to the story than the inevitable ending. I have seen so many negative reviews pertaining to this particular installment, and while I understand the sadness, what I don’t get is the harshness with which people rated this story. This is such an impossibly hard review to write, because I loved this series so very much. I know that I don’t want to die, and for me, that’s something-more than I could have said a few weeks ago. I know some things-I know that I’m not alone, that I have friends, that I’m in love.
