This was one of those series where the sequel actually held up. Thank goodness. I loved this book almost as much as the first one. Unfortunately, I didn't have the third book immediately handy, so I found myself wanting to hold off on finishing. I put off reading it because I didn't want to get stuck with a cliffhanger. And while I do want to read the third one pretty badly, I have to say that the way it ended didn't royally frustrate me. Thank goodness again. I'm very impressed by Veronica Roth's writing. I'm really hoping that the wrap up of this series doesn't disappoint because the first two have set the bar nice and high.
