Free Four: Tobias tells the story, knife throwing scene


Hi again!!
In the previous message (Divergent), we resumed the story a little bit. Now its time for us to say what we think about it!
For starters, Veronica Roth (the author of the book) knows so well how to describe a war! She writes extremely well for teens, because the book has everything to need to hold our attention, a little fiction, a little romance, humour and of course a revolt. The author can write a love story in a very subtle, but at the same time disturbing way, that makes us want to read more and more. The fact that something important is always happening also captures our curiosity.
We want to talk about a particular scene from the book: the scene where Four shoots daggers at Tris. For us, this scene was one of the best ones, especially after reading Free Four (this exact scene viewed from Four's perspective), where we could see his point of view, his feelings for Tris and as far as we know a little of his own initiation... Anyway, if you get to read Divergent, you have to read Free Four as well, and then you can realise what we mean.
"Divergent" has so many details ... We are able to imagine ourselves in the role of Tris, passing each hallway, talking with each character.
Just to give an idea of ​​how addictive this book is one of us read it in a day and a half and the other in three days (only because she couldn't read faster, otherwise she would have nothing last to read at holidays). The book has 250 pages.
Well, I guess we can't say much more, because it would lose all the funny!!
