Insurgent


By Veronica Roth

AR 
RL 5.0
PTS 16.0

         Tris Prior has to embrace the Divergence inside her to save the ones she loves. But her choices will affect what happens to her and her loved ones. This is the second book in The Divergent Series, so if you haven't read Divergent be sure to check that out first! I would recommend this book to people who like action and a little bit of romance. It is a great book for everyone to read!

Divergent


By Veronica Roth

AR
RL 4.8
PTS 16.0

          Beatrice Prior is a sixteen-year-old girl living life in the selfless and respectful faction she was born into, Abnegation. At her Choosing Ceremony she boldly decides to change factions and becomes Dauntless. Beatrice has to adapt quickly as her new faction values courage, bravery, toughness, and fearlessness. During her Dauntless training, she finds the love of her life. She also has to be brave when she looses the people she loves. I would recommend this book to people who like The Hunger Games and Harry Potter. If you like those series you should definitely read this book!

Legend

By Marie Lu

AR
RL 4.8
PTS 11.0

     Day is a very well-known teen-aged criminal.  Although he never killed anyone, the government still wants him.  June is a teenage prodigy.  She is the only one to get a perfect score on her trial of 1500.  After her brother was supposed to be killed by Day, it is her mission to track Day down.  Day is struggling to keep himself together because his little brother is sick.  Most people believe Day is dead.  Only one person knows he's alive.  When Day and June meet, they do not know what's heading their way!  I would recommend this book to readers who enjoy action and romance.  Also, in each chapter you read from a different characters point-of-view--this might be a little confusing at first, but you will get it!  This book is similar to the book, "The Testing."  You can not imagine how Day and June meet!!!
