“Divergent,” the best-selling YA novel, makes its way onto the big screen like so many other YA adaptations before it. The books, though they have their strong points, are very Hunger Games-esque but not quite as good. The first book has some good material for a movie, but those last two books take a sharp turn into suck town. Set in a dystopic future, Divergent focuses on one very special girl, Beatrice Prior, whose divergent mind works differently than everyone else’s, putting her at risk of being snuffed out by a society that embraces labels and control above all else. be Divergent verges into theaters March 21, 2014.

    I agree with you on the books. Someone at work recommended them for my daughter, and, as I always read stuff before I give it to my kids, I burned through them over a weekend. When I asked the lady at work, “WTF?” on books two and three, she laughed and said, “Oh, yeah, those are awful, don’t read those.”
