I'm really scared to read Allegiant... (NS obvs)

moroccojade · October 2013

I was bad. I read a few very spoilerific reviews. I now know 100% that I will not be wasting my time on this book. #2 was such a disappointment. #3 would be even worse now that I know what happens. So I will save money and time!

I am now also pretending that Divergent is just one book - no series.

I finished last night and am still processing.

I think if you are invested in the series you have to read it. Regardless of if you like it or not I think it makes sense and gave me a feeling of closure. Though of course I still want more Four!

I'm overall very happy with it and will actually probably listen to the audio as soon as I finish my current audio because I know there is a ton I missed.

I haven't read all the responses to this, but I have the same fear. I'm not quite halfway through. So far, I'm not loving it like the others.

This is my feeling too, I've been debating about spending my birthday money on the trilogy. I felt very meh about the second book and I hoped this would be amazing but this post didn't make me feel better.

Argh, I need to stop reading posts like this! I am about 170 pages in and although it started slow I am enjoying it now. These posts are making me nervous!!

I agree with you. Though I'm not happy with the ending, it makes sense.

Well, I definitely think you should read it. Building it up as a disappointment in your head isn't going to help you enjoy it, that's for certain.

I guess I'm in the minority. I liked Allegiant. It was a quick and easy read. I was quite entertained. The ending wasn't what I had hoped, but then it was Veronica's vision, not my own, and that's why she gets paid the big bucks. I thought there were some good twists. I enjoyed the pretty obvious parallels to prejudices we have in our society, kinda made me think about things I see and hear in real life.

If you can't keep characters straight, then go read the wikipedia on Insurgent & Divergent. They both have a good character synopsis.

I'm scared too. I'm waiting for a bit to start.

I hope to finish tonight or tomorrow morning. I am such a slow reader! I am on 375. I have mixed feelings right now and I am very nervous about the ending. I'm really trying not to spoil myself but it's really tough!

It's all gone to hell for me anyway. I'm not even going to bother reading it.

Oh no. I think I know what this means.

I have Allegiant but I decided to re-read books 1 & 2. Otherwise, I would have been way too confused after the running around in Book 2.

NOOOOOOOO

I refuse to believe that anything bad happens

@pinkybooklover09 This makes me so sad for you. I am going to start the campaign to push you to read it anyway though. The way things unfold make so much sense to me.
