Join my guest Lauren, from And Here's Why Pod, and me as we talk about Divergent, the first book in  Veronica Roth's best selling series!

Make sure you listen to the end because I included a short bonus section where Lauren and I discuss the Divergent movies. You won't want to miss it!

In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue - Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent).

But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death...
