I like the idea and movement of the story. I love that the narrator is not a great beauty, nor is she annoyingly smart. Tris is at odds with herself and trying to self-define, which is nothing new. The empty vessel of a character that needs filled, that is kept down by societal constraints that keep her from being whole is all over the place in stories, but Roth manages to make her feel a little bit new. Simple, fast-paced writing that has moments worthy of a literary thumbs up. The rest is fun.
