Finished "Divergent" last night.

Hmmmm. I can see certain "formulas" starting to develop within the YA Dystopian genre. I know all genre's have a bit of formula to them - but it's disheartening when it's so obvious (not talking about the fact that most are after a huge war - that is after all what defines the genre).

This trilogy has potential - but it is no Hunger Games. Maybe it's a bad thing to read Hunger Games first as far as the genre goes. Kinda like reading Lord of the Rings before the Dragonlance series...

Hmmmmm
