Plot description
[edit]This definitely sounds like an advert. Seems like someone just copy-pasted a publisher's summary [1] and then added the ending. I haven't read the book, and this is better than nothing, but it seems very, very biased.

Killing Tris
[edit]Why the hell did they need to kill Tris??? The book's nice but comme on everybody likes her, she survived death so many times and she just dies stupidly at the end, you don't kill Harry Potter at the end, it's the same thing --GillesBLT (talk) 04:15, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
Children's choice awards
[edit]Almost every state has a "(school)children's choice" or "young reader" annual book award program, with rules and age groups that vary greatly. Some of them rule sequels out of bounds.
Divergent (novel) (2011) won the 2014 award in about half of the states --usually in the oldest of 3 or 4 categories defined by school grade. The winners included numerous 2012 publications as well as a few 2010. I don't recall finding even one such spring 2014 award consider 2013 publications.
That said, there is at least one nationwide Children's Choice Book Award and Allegiant (October 2013) won its category in voting that began late March. 2014 Winners and Finalists at Children's Book Council. So it's a radically different award in one way, at least. Insurgent was a 2013 finalist[1], Divergent a 2012 finalist.[2]

The title
[edit]The word "allegiant" actually does rhyme with "divergent" and "insurgent". That's why I edited the section to remove the claim that Veronica Roth didn't want the titles to rhyme. She just didn't see the need to pick another word that ends with "-ent". In fact, this is stated in the linked source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.255.207.18 (talk) 14:47, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
I hate Veronica Roth
[edit]I hate her. She ripped my heart out and threw it in the Rancor Pit by killing Tris. Then, revealing in an interview that after Tris' death, Christina and Four get together, that was too far! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.74.105.38 (talk) 21:29, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
