Tris/Beatrice : Tris is a survivor, she is brave but her
original faction is a place where you have to be selfless
and help others. She is not a natural at doing this. She
want's to be something different but doesn't know where
to start. Roth uses a symbol of a bird tattoo to show that
Tris is brave by facing her fears. Her brother inspires her
to do things for people as a natural Abnegation would.
This helps Tris to fit in with the rest of her faction
without drawing attention to herself.
Eric: Eric is one of the
leaders of dauntless, who
grew up in the faction, at the
same time as Four. Four and
Eric have always had
tension between the two of
them. Also, Eric dislikes Tris
because she has a
relationship with four later
on in the story.
Four/ Tobias: Four is very brave and
appears to have no feelings and no
fears. Four inspires Tris to
perservere in her new faction,
Dauntless. In dauntless they are
brave and tough and wear black to
symbolise what they stand for. Four
and Tris share a romantic
connection. Four joined dauntless to
get away from his abusive father and
to become brave and not stand
down.

2. This Book is very action
packed and that is what i
love about it. You can
using your imagination to
see the way things are
being delt with. It was
easy to see a whole movie
in your head and really
see every detail with
Roth's description.
Overall Response: my overall response is
that I really enjoyed this book. This is
because of the action that was involved,
espeacially with the love story that gets you
off your seats screaming at the book. You
can never put this book down, because the
author creates such vivid images in your
mind, when you read. You feel as if you are
a person in dauntless, living life along with
the characters.
Main ideas: Tris is forced to
make the decision that
determines her future. She is
frightened to leave her family
but even more frightened the
test will tell her that she belongs
in her home faction.
Ever since Tris was a child she was
fascinated by dauntless and later
she hopes to join it. But behind the
scenes it is becoming corrupt and
about to become an army to kill
everyone in Tris' old family. She
must save everyone she loved
before its too late.
main ideas
Tris and Four have a
complicated relationship.
However they must hold off
until the final test. Tris and
Four are they only 2
Divergent people in their
faction which brings them
together.
