Alright here it is...my new video blog discussing Divergent the movie and the book! Eeeek! There is so much I didn't discuss (like how amazing Theo James is) but I wanted to focus more on the important things like the faction system. The video is 16 minutes (I could've gone on forever really)...but I hope you'll watch (or at least skim it) and have a discussion with me :) I'm so in love with this movie and book right now! Actual book reviews for Insurgent and Allegiant will be up probably closer to May.

"It was hard when I knew I was about to be flooded with memories of a life I hadn't lived yet. Really, two lives I hadn't lived yet."
Summary: When Addie is faced with a choice, she can look into the future and see two possible outcomes. She is a Searcher and lives at the Compound with other people who also have special abilities. When her parents decide to get a divorce, Addie is asked to choose which parent to live with. To make the decision, Addie will search six weeks into the future. Both paths show that she will experience loss of some sort, so it comes down to which future she can live with the most.
I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH THAT I COULD CRY. In fact, I did cry last night as I finished it. I loved everything about this book. I love how unique the storyline is. I love Addie and Laila's friendship. I love Addie's attitude. I love Duke (I also hate him though). I LOVE TREVOR. Oh my gosh, Trevor is so perfect! At first I was Team Duke but then I found out some stuff about him and I was like "I'm going to Team Trevor now." When Addie brought Trevor a heating pad for his hurt shoulder, I DIED. That whole bedroom scene was the BEST. I'm glad I ended up liking Trevor. When I first met him, he was wearing a jean jacket and cowboy boots and I was like "Uh. NO." The ending to this book was so so so sad! I don't want to spoil anything but seriously GO READ THIS BOOK. It's officially my second favorite book I've read this year. And I just saw that there's going to be a sequel which I'm honestly a little concerned about because my expectations are set really high but I can't wait to read it!
