Bonjour my lovelies!
So, this is probably going to be a bit long, as I intent to list all the books I've bought recently :-)


Firstly, my charity shop buys;
The Devil Wears Prada - Lauren Weisberger
Wuthering Heights - Emily Brontë
Atonement - Ian McEwan
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas - John Boyne
Bridget Jones's Diary - Helen Fielding
Mansfield Park - Jane Austen
Deception Point - Dan Brown
Digital Fortress - Dan Brown

bookshop buys;
Divergent - Veronica Roth
Insurgent - Veronica Roth
One Hundred Names - Cecelia Ahern
Soulmates - Holly Bourne
Geek Girl - Holly Smale
Looking For Alaska - John Green
Will Grayson, Will Grayson - John Green and David Levithan
An Abundance of Katherines - John Green
Paper Towns - John Green (a kindle purchase)

OKAY
So, now that's done, the book that I'm going to review is Divergent by Veronica Roth.
The blurb reads:
 Sixteen-year-old Tris is forced to make a terrible choice. In a divided society where everyone must conform, Tris does not fit.
 So she ventures out alone, determined to discover where she truly belongs. Shocked by her brutal new life, Tris can trust no one. And yet, she is drawn to a boy who seems to both threaten her and protect her.
 The hardest choice lies ahead.

Basically, I really liked this book. I don't know why I liked it, I'm really struggling to put my finger on it. I find the start of the book really hard to get into, as I don't really think it introduces you to the way of life carried out by the charcters, but when I got into it, I couldn't stop reading it. I finished the first book (once i'd got into it) in two days.
