Bookish: How did te decide on a YA novel adaptation for your successivo project?
Evan Daugherty: I was looking at a lot of things – a lot of comic books–and Leggere a lot of books, and in the process of that…I read five of these YA books. I read “Pure” da Julianna Baggott, “Legend” [by Marie Lu], “Delirium” [by Lauren Oliver] and “This Dark Endeavor” [by Kenneth Oppel]–it’s kind of a cool, young adult version of the “Frankenstein” story.
Bookish: So te obviously read some popolare stuff being shopped around–why did te choose to adapt ”Divergent?”
ED: It’s a mutual...

Anyone else sincerely interested in creating a small-scale Candor community? o even multi-faction communities.

I know it didn't work for them, and I'm not a crazy super fan o anything, but after watching & Leggere the Divergent series I couldn't help but start seriously imagining how to create a real-world version. All the things I'd do differently and the things I'd keep the same.

If te think about it, it's just like creating an Intentional Community and there's plenty of those succeeding around the world. I think if the right people with the right vision got together, we could make it happen!

Who's with me?!
Teen Read Week was October 14th through 20th, but here at The Hub, we’re celebrating for ten days so we can bring te interviews, guest posts, videos, and più with each of the authors whose libri made this year’s Teens’ superiore, in alto Ten. Today we feature Veronica Roth, whose book Divergent is #1 on this year’s list.

Divergent is a book about bravery, self-determination, friendship, family, loyalty, and making choices. It is a book that positively captivated (not just) teen readers across the nation, myself included. When dato the opportunity, I jumped at the chance to ask Veronica Roth a few...

"Move over, Katniss. Tris is successivo in line."

I don't remember who detto this, but it was a Divergent critic that was quoted at the beginning of the book. I don't particularly appreciate the commento because it's encouraging rivalry o competition between the two series. Possibly commenti like this one could have been one of the reasons why some Hunger Games fan "don't like Divergent," because they still like the Hunger Games. They don't want another book to take its place. But why do the two series have to be rivals? Does Katniss really need to "move over" for Tris to have her chance? Can't they...

O. M. G. Is it just me, o are Divergent and Hunger games, EXACTLY THE SAME!!!!! Both have problems involving some form of government, and both have wicked government persons. (btw beware this articolo will have some foul words.) Both Divergent and HG have badass characters and hot lead guy characters, (four and peeta and gale). Both states, o worlds, are divided in some form of colonies.WTF. Have te also noticed both have iconic symbols, the mockingjay pin, and Tris's bats?!?!?! Started to get what im saying??? Both have some kind of war wtch kills like tons of people. Each colony (wtch I...

Allegiant. I honestly do not know where to start on this book. Might as well start from the very beginning.
A tired me was looking for something to read in the book store. I found the Divergent Box Set, and since my Friends had constantly been chatting about how it's the 'new Hunger Games', I decided to give it a try. Divergent was the first book, I loved it. It was well-written,...

Hi,

So I am just going to give my opinion and write a bit about the Divergent series da Veronica Roth.

So first of all I would like to say that the series is very well written and includes lots of detail. What I don't like about the last book is that the chapters are not just about Tris but about Tobias and Tris. My preferito character is Tobias and as I detto in a sondaggio I would most like to spend a giorno with him!
I hate Jeanine Matthews and Peter Hayes as most people do and wish for them to be dead. Jeanine Matthews did die though. I Amore this series.

So, I’ve read these (amazing) libri and watched their trailers. The Film look awesome but I feel like Film are exaggerated WAY TOO MUCH!! Like, if te are going to take the time to call yourself a true fan, read the books!! Veronica Roth has made the beautiful creation that is what we call the Divergent Trilogy. Those are books. She didn’t however create the Divergent Movie Trilogy. Which as te would guess, are movies. I think that libri are sort of like the glue of most stories, series, trilogies, etc. But, I respect people who watch the Film becsause some people have a hard time Leggere o don’t get enough time to. So whatever type of fan te are, well done! And da the way, “You’re Abnegation is showing”. Lol
We are all entitled to our own opinions so here is mine if te agree with me great. If te don't that's not my problem. Just if te commento and te don't agree don't be mean. I have seen really mean commenti on here and it's a shame.

Alright here we go:

First of all the hunger games are fimed and they are aired on television. Divergent is not filmed o aired on television.

Next technically the hunger games only its suppose to have ONE winner... They have let Katniss slide so much it's a bit sad that she loses everyone she cases about at the end of the story. Divergent is not necessarily a one...

I know this is late. I wanted to post this the giorno the trailer came out, but my birthday was on Saturday so I was busy all weekend. And I've been busy with school finals this week. Now it's Friday so I can finally do this thing!

On to the Review!

*Slight disclaimer, I have read the trilogy, but I have not seen the first movie. So excuse me if some of my commenti are irrelevant. Also this will be full of sassiness and sarcasm haha so don't take everything I write too seriously ;)*

Trailer Time: 0:02

THE BOX. What the frick frack diddly dack is this? So this really confused me and angered me...this...

There is a lot going around that Divergent is a rip off of The Hunger Games. I don't agree. I like them both equally but I don't see them being the same. there are notable differences between the two.

Let's start with the obvious:

The kids in Divergent aren't fighting in a game of life o death on television.

Yes, they both take place in dystopian worlds but their dystopian worlds are different than eachother. in Katniss's it's poverty, with Tris, she has it a little better than Katniss.

But really, I don't like them being compared to eachother. it was the same with Harry potter and Twilight and look how that turned out.
