About this listen

She turns to the future in a world that’s falling apart.

The No. 1 New York Times bestseller DIVERGENT – a major motion picture in 2014.

For sixteen-year-old Tris, the world changes in a heartbeat when she is forced to make a terrible choice. Turning her back on her family, Tris ventures out, alone, determined to find out where she truly belongs.

Shocked by the brutality of her new life, Tris can trust no one. And yet she is drawn to a boy who seems to both threaten and protect her. The hardest choices may yet lie ahead….

The first book in the DIVERGENT series that has swept the globe – selling millions of copies world-wide.

Critic reviews

"Though Galvin’s narration is concentrated on giving Tris the perfect voice, she never neglects the secondary characters. Poignant moments with Tris’s mother and Four, her leader and love, are subtly nuanced to let listeners hear the terror Tris often hides.... listeners will hold their breath waiting to see if she can survive the day."

It is a good story, not too heavy and easy to follow, good characters and interesting world building, simple but gripping.

Story told by a woman, finding her way in a confusing world.

I’ve chosen to listen to this book because I loved both the movie and the books back in 2014. The narrator fits Tris and I can say that I’ve truly enjoyed listening to it and reliving what I used to read.

Pure Nostalgia

Me encanta está historia, la trama es lo más original, pero la lectura es bastante monótona, la actriz no logra imprimirle la emoción necesaria, a veces me quedo dormida escuchándola, pero la historia es tan buena que se soporta, aunque podría ser mucho mejor con otra actriz, quizás.

Love the story

This story was a good YA book and I believe that teens will enjoy it the best. The whole concept was both unique and common. The tests that determine where you belong was like every other book on this topic. However, one of the factions controlling and also rebelling against the others was a cool idea. This was a great book.

A great book

Bit too rushed at the end. The sudden change in atmosphere is a bit too sharp and fast. But overall good.

Good, but rushed at the end.

Would you try another book from Veronica Roth and/or Emma Galvin?

Yes I enjoyed reading the book and Emma Galvin is a great narrator

If you’ve listened to books by Veronica Roth before, how does this one compare?

Ok, honestly I thought I was going to throw my phone to the ground if I heard 'He said' 'I said' 'she said' one more time. It was doing my head in and I some how put up with it throughout the next two books

Did Emma Galvin do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Yes, the differences where there

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Yes

He said, she said, I said SCREAM

Where does Divergent rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Divergent is actually an interesting book. In particular the concept, however the series overall is extremely disappointing.

Has Divergent turned you off from other books in this genre?

I read the Hunger game series years before this series and this series is lacking in comparison. I enjoyed the concept/idea of this book, but be warned this is a trilogy.

What about Emma Galvin’s performance did you like?

I enjoyed her reading of the book(s) Pity the series overall is so lacking.

Any additional comments?

The first book is great. The second book is also pretty good. I hated the third book and not because of it's ending. I just could not finish the book. So for me this series would get 1 star. The only reason I know about "the gasp" ending is because someone it work asked me if that's why I didn't finish it. For anyone who enjoys a good, solid, well written ending to a series this series is not for you.

Interesting concept but...
