Summary: from Good Reads

The faction-based society that Tris Prior once believed in is shattered—fractured by violence and power struggles and scarred by loss and betrayal. So when offered a chance to explore the world past the limits she’s known, Tris is ready. Perhaps beyond the fence, she and Tobias will find a simple new life together, free from complicated lies, tangled loyalties, and painful memories.

But Tris’s new reality is even more alarming than the one she left behind. Old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless. Explosive new truths change the hearts of those she loves. And once again, Tris must battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature—and of herself—while facing impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice, and love.

Told from a riveting dual perspective, Allegiant, by #1 New York Times best-selling author Veronica Roth, brings the Divergent series to a powerful conclusion while revealing the secrets of the dystopian world that has captivated millions of readers in Divergent and Insurgent.

Feelings:
This book explains the world in which they live but I have to admit I didn't really like the explanation. I also didn't think this book was as strong as the other books. The weakest point in the books has been the relationship between Tris and Tobias, Four, and this book didn't improve in that regard. The way the relationship is dealt with still seems weak to me and not believable.

The ending of the book was a bit of a surprise and I appreciated that. I just felt that everything that lead to that point was weak and needed to be a little more developed. They just left one dangerous situation I don't think they are going to jump right into another one. It seems more like they would want to have a little time to themselves and to digest what they just learned but they don't do that.

Of all of the books this one was my least favorite. I would recommend it to those that want to finish the series but I wouldn't start the series if again if I knew the last book would be a let down.
