It's been almost 3 weeks since I finished Allegiant, and my heart still sinks when I think about Tris :c Gahhhh I've never been so upset over a book, especially because I really related to her, I felt we had so much in common and then she just dies whyyyyy! Anyway, I still LOVE this series, I'm just very sad and it will take some time to get over it.
that is what happend to me when i finished The Fault in our Stars
mila vermilyea The whole Divergent series is sadder in my opinion because so many good people die. ONLY 2 GOOD PEOPLE LIVE!!!
Geneva Tong
yeah that's true, but at lest Zeke, Tobias, and Christina lived
mila vermilyea I don't think Zeke is that great because (SPOILER ALERT!) he was a traitor
Brittany Paulus: LOL! I forgpt that he was!
It was so heartbreaking for Tris to die, but at the same time Veronica Roth did a beautiful job of doing it and honoring her death in the story. So I cried my eyes out, but I loved it. I love books that give me emotions so I was okay with it haha.
i agree :)
I Love how how they scattered the ashes!! that's was perfect. but I agree with you, im glad veronica roth kinda gave the reader a lesson through the death of tris
so true
There should be a second version of Allegiant with Tris and Tobias having a happy ending :(
The ending was fantastic! The only way it could end! Roth is a genius!
I agree with everything you said! When I read that Tris died I kept turning pages thinking they'd find a way to being her back or even something ridiculous like her Divergence would bring her back to life! I didn't like Allegiant nearly as much as Divergent or Insurgent.
Her writing was so amazing in this book, too. It's crazy how much I can love Veronica Roth and her writing so much and be so mad at her at the same time!
although i'm incredibly sad that Tris had to die, the chapter and chapters leading up to her death were beautiful. Veronica loves Jesus, and I as well. i can see that in her writing and i really appreciated what she did. Tris' last moments of life really reflected Jesus' life on earth.
At some point, I would love to see a Natalie Prior mini series/short stories. Learning about her history made me want to learn even more about her life. Natalie was a complete and utter survivor and bada**. Tris inherited her bravery and selflessness from her mother.
Very well thought out review!
My mom actually came in my room and she was like are you ok?
Yay!
I've questioned her death when I first read it and saw it but I thought, "no, no she can't die" - was in denial til Four confirmed it :(
I loved the epilogue about what tobias did with the zip line and conquer his fear for tris and to spread her ashes it so beautiful
how do i get over this book. i keep on thinking about tris and i cant forget about it and get sad ):
I finished the book yesterday and I just couldn't handle it. I wanted tris and four to have a family together and live normal lives. I literally had there lives planned out and when tris died, I pretty much died too. I honestly would have reacted the same way four did
Going into this book I knew Tris was going to die (I was spoiled before I read it) but when I read it, I still couldn't believe she died. In the chapters after it I kept thinking "she's got to come back, she can't be dead" and her death didn't really sink in until Cara tells Tobias she's dead and he's crying over her body, then I was like "Noooo!!! Why Tris!!!" I agree with you that it should have been Caleb.
I was very sad and angry after reading... not so much because Tris died, I was prepared for that but I never really thought about Four and his reaction, when you look at it, Four had an awful life and just when his life had got in order and he was happy he looses the one person he loved to the ends of the world...
Literally everything you said in this video I agree 100%! It's like you took the words out of my mouth:) loved hearing your thought! Thanks for sharing!
Ha I know! What's weird is I want to get into something actiony to replace my Divergent loss. I need Champion to come out like now!
I feel like Tris deserved a better dead I mean she survived and make it through so many things like Dauntless initiation, de Erudite execution, the death serum, and so many things more, so that she died just because a character that we barely knew gun shot her is like she didn't deserve that
I feel the same way! She is capable of fighting the truth serum and the death serum, but she dies to a gun shot. From someone who she "saved" in the beginning of the story too. She was so young :(
SHE SURVIVED THE FREAKING DEATH SERUM!!! And stupid David that LOVES her mom shot her
That would be cool if in the movie of Allegiant had four when he ziplines he should touch the building like tris and instead of his refection it should be tris in the reflection. Do you guys agree
I completely agree with everything you said. I have never cried more in my whole life lol.
Just finished the book and I cried so much! I loved tris and I really wanted tris and Tobias to end up together, and I so agree with you!
Great video, Heather! I like that you were honest in this review instead of just passively saying "this book isn't for me;" sometimes you need to put your opinion out there even if a lot of people don't agree, and I have a feeling that a lot of people relate to your thoughts!
I, on the other hand, am trying to register this book for MORE than just the ending. I felt there were bigger problems that it had other than killing off the main protagonist, like a LOT of plot holes. Still reflecting!
I was also upset with the ending. I cried and am still saddened by Tris's death! I did expect Tris or Tobias to die. I have to be honest, I'm glad it was not Tobias...
But I had been waiting for Allegiant since February and I was waiting for my happy ending! An ending with Tris, and Tobias having kids. But NOOOOOOOOO. I got so into the characters. Veronica's writing is amazing, and so is the book. But the ending is just... sad. I loved how Veronica showed both perspectives. I loved it! I always wondered what Tobias thought, and stuff. Divergent is still on my top 5 favorite series, even after the end. Love it
This is true. Thanks for your thoughts!
You and I feel exactly the same!!!
I just want to know what would of happened if Tris didn't die and how Four and Tris would live out there lives after that, but Veronica may never tell
Heather, the opening for this review was brilliant! I wonder if anyone has tried to call that number? I think that Veronica Roth should open up that hotline and answer all the calls from readers in morning.
Sorry to hear that you didn't really like the ending. I personally did though. Even before I started reading the book (which I did not get spoiled for), I didn't foresee any happily ever after between Tris and Four. If you read the interview at the end of the "Insurgent" Collector's Edition, Veronica Roth talks about her thoughts on character death and I think that is why I was able to understand where she was coming from in her writing.
"We all want that vision of Tris and Four living together throughout their days, holding hands, being sappy, and now that's gone for me." I couldn't have said that better.
Veronica should write a prequal explaining how the world ended and the factions were created, how trish's mom came to be and also her family and how they came to live on the fringe.
Omg I feel exactly the same as you! I was on the verge of tears and had to re read the part that someone said she didn't survive. Oh man this was amazing. Soo good
I liked how Tobias went on the zip line in the end. The message was also great.
Totally agree! I was spoiled as well so it was hard to get through without breaking down. In my opinion, I think she still would have had a powerful ending if Caleb died and sacrificed himself, because then he would have finally redeemed himself and actually stood up for tris for once. UGH so upset! After seeing everything the poor girl went through I was just hoping she'd reach the end with tobias, so heartbroken!
I felt the same way! I wanted to through the book across my bedroom at 1:30 in the morning! I don't want the series to end! But there is a movie!
when i finished allegiant, i wasn't sure if i should have cried or felt happy. I totally agree with the "there should have been a happy ending"... And I think were all going to remember the divergent series as the series where Tris dies.
I wish Tris would have ventured out more in this book. I would have loved for her to have gotten lost in the Fringe when she went there with Amar. She could have spent like 5 chapters trying to get back, fighting for her life, and maybe Four could have went to go save her which might have got him out of his depressing slump he had going on. But instead we just got around 250 pages of info and relationship drama caused by some chick that doesn't know when to back off... The ending didn't lower my opinion of the book, it would have been as good as the other two if only Four wasn't depressed and making poor decisions the whole time, and if they would have had more action scenes.
I got spoiled on tumblr too and at the time I was so pissed but i cried so much while reading that I'm afraid to know what I would have been like if I was caught off guard! Your should of known rant about Veronica Roth at the beginning, so accurate.
I agree with almost everything you said, and Tris's death broke my heart and i cried so much. I didnt like that she died and I'm extremely upset that she did, but I understand why Veronica Roth did that. OF COURSE, Tris wouldn't let Caleb die because of guilt. Of course she would go in instead, because she's Tris. It shows how she is everything Abnegation, Dauntless, Erudite, Candor, Amity. Human. She's brave and strong and she loves. The end where Tobias scattered her ashes by going on the zipline... oh my gosh that was so touching. I feel like I lost a dear friend, and I to, am in book mourning right now. But it was amazing how it ended with Chicago and Evelyn choosing Tobias over power... that was so great.
Overall I really liked this book, and though I would have preferred Tris not to die at all and her and Tobias to live happily ever after, i think it was a good conclusion to the trilogy.
I used a whole box of tissues reading this.
I connected with Tris so much, and she was my favourite character. I can`t believe she`s dead.
R.I.P. Tris Prior
There's a small part of me that understands why the seemingly vast majority of people dislike this book. But there is an even bigger part of me that absolutely does not understand it. I loved this book! It was beautiful and tragic and absolutely perfect. The unhappy ending made everything about this world seem so much more real. I loved it, I loved it, I loved it. Please do not let anyone deter you from reading this book -- it's such a great ending to a beautiful series. Hats off to you Ms. Roth
:''''''( that's all my tears!
So true! That's all I think about! Now when people say 'Oh Divergent? Yeah the main girl totally dies at the end' NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
I didn't like when Tris died, but the ending of the book was very beautiful. To Tris sacrificing herself to Tobias spreading her ashes. I cry for a while and that was the only thing I cohos talk about for days on end. But overall Veronica Roth is a beautiful writer and deserves no hate. She ended the series on a sad but beautiful note. That is why the Divergent series is and always will be my favorite books.
I have never seen myself cry so much. I finished this book and I was literally heart broken. I just couldn't believe I broke down when I usually dont. Over all this book was a very good one, but still heart breaking. I just didn't except it to end like that.
I finished this book at night time, and I was so heartbroken when Tris died (cried for like half an hour) that I didn't go to school the day after. Call me crazy, but I nearly died of sadness okay?! D': I don't hate the book though...
I went in knowing that she was going to die and I still very much liked this book. I have given up a child... I have a brother with whom I have fundamental differences. So it all made perfect sense for me.
When I film my book review today, it's definitely going to be interesting. I mean...even if I can formulate my feels into words.
This is very true! We all fell in love with Tris & we have Veronica Roth to thank for that :-)
i 100% agree with you. i felt the same way about Tris's death. im more upset over how & why it happened versus that it just happened. i just cant justify her death.
I agree with her, the divergent series was amazing but allegiant was so sad but so good! This series is the BEST I have ever read:)
I totally agree!!! I cried so hard! Tris was so great and I can't believe she is gone!! Her and Four were so great, they were supposed to go have cute babies and a cute family!! She can't die!
I'm reading back Divergent again, after cried so badly because of Allegiant. But it just so sad to think back about Tris and Four, how they met and when they talk and their kisses. I remember the feeling when she first kisses him, nervous and didnt know what to do. But now, she's gone. I feel so empty and sad and full of emotion. But i'm still gonna watch the movie, hopefully they will change the ending
I was spoiled on the ending of Allegiant, but it still hit me so hard. I have no idea what I feel about it.
I feel exactly the way you do! I didn't cry as much as I did for the ending of The Infernal Devices but that's because I felt it was unjustifiable in the way it happened. I really think the book should have been longer because there are so many question marks! I don't know if I will see the movie now. I'm a mess over this ending to a fabulous series. I gave the book 1 star but the other two books 5 stars. I want Veronica Roth to come out and give us an explanation of why and so I can understan
You just nailed my thoughts. You invest your time and love and hope in a person and to now see her have the happy ending. I just feel flabbergasted. . :( so sad and i an now reading mockingjay again to get my spirit up ..
SAME! I LITERALLY AM WATCHING SOOOO MANY VIDS ABOUT HER DEATH! THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL! Great review!!!!!!!!! LOVE THE SERIES!!!!!
I sorta maybe saw that but I can just never ever imagine it!
I feel like we need to have a virtual funeral for her since we are all upset about her death. I was so speechless when it happened and I was in a state of shock at the end. As much as I didn't like her death I still loved this book. I think it shows what a good author Veronica Roth is to make us all care for Tris so much to be affected the way we are.
When Veronica said that she would write the book in tris and four's perspective i joked around with some friends, what if she kills tris!!?? XD that will never happen!............ and it turned out to be truth and i just cried all night after i finished it
I feel so conflicted. In one way, I understand that the ending is bold, beautiful, and daring, which is one of the overlying themes of the trilogy, but then another part of me just wanted a happy ending for them. After all they've been through, I really wanted them to finally be happy. But then again, Tris' final sacrifice really reinforced how strong, selfless, and dauntless she was. Maybe I'll have different feelings when I reread this in the future.
I completely, absolutely agree with you (I bawled my eyes out). It just wasn't meant to be - I loved Tris.
But I still loved the book and want to read the series again and again even though I'll never think the same about it again.
I love that Tris died.. The execution of her death?? Was incredibly poor. Just happened. That part I hated.
I don't know exactly how I feel about this, but I can't give less than 5 stars if I think rationally, I mean, war is war and I think Veronica always focused on that and not in the romance. Furthermore, the development of conflicts and the characters where perfect.
My sentimental part makes me want to give one star, maybe two by the moments I read between them, I can't help wondering Did it have to end like this? I think not, but even so I still think it's the end right, but not the perfect one
totally agree with you! im so heartbroken...ive never ever mourned over a book before i honestly cant believe it...
I finish the book and I cried so much until my nose got clogged and that it was possible i might vomit with tears continuously streaming down my face. I'm so attached that I feel like I just lost my sister and Uriah. God. Uriah died too. The people I loved all died. I can't stop thinking about Tris. I try to make myself think that she's still alive and that she's zip lining with Tobias but I can't help to think that she's really gone. I'm still mourning. I don't know when I'll get over this
That's true, we need to know more!
Since the book came out, I haven't had time to read Allegiant until I got out of school. I barely finished it today and it's super bittersweet!!!! I also knew she was going to die, but I didn't want to believe it!!! It's sooo sad, but in a way I like how Veronica did that.
I never expected Tris to die, especially after she survived the death serum! it was such a shock for me, i'm still mourning:( I expected the ending to be a bit like mockingjay.Great video though, you described my exact feelings
I threw my book out the window when I finish I cat believe that someone in the world would ever write a book like that trust me I love series, but I almost drowned in my own tears I just feel bad for Four losing one of the only thing he cares about and tris only 16 years old and risk so much to me that's a wrong way to die what ever I need to get my book back and fix the window before anyone notices
i absolutely loved the ending! i finished the book yesterday, and i'm so glad that she killed off tris. i loved tris, but it was just so realistic the way roth ended it. i'm so sick of lovey-dovey endings to ya-series, so it was very refreshing to read allegiant. i also didn't stuble upon any spoilers before reading it, which i'm very glad about ;) i knew that people hated the ending, and after tris died i wondered if that was the hated ending... when i read about four wanting to drink the memory serum i was like "hell no, is this the ending they hate!?" and i was so scared that he would drink it!! ah! but i'm so glad i loved it, and it'll be intersting to see the adaption of it now :) great video!
I totally agree with everything you said. I'm still mourning. I can't believe she's gone. My eyes are so puffy i don't even want to go outside. Tris was such an amazing character and to let her die just like that i can't right now. I still need to process it.
There are some parts I liked better than others, and despite being a complete emotional mess, I really liked how things played out. I love the gutteral, real quality that it had. Dystopia's aren't fantasy to me, they're alternate social histories.
The dual perspectives things did throw me for the first couple of chapters but there are subtle ways that they are unique to each person. Fours much more emotional while Tris is quite pragmatic. I really like the role reversals in this case.
I just finished the book literally like 15 mins ago... Still crying my eyes out.... Really can't believe it
I didn't know that Tris was going to die going into it, but even though it was extremly sad I think that Tris' death was the ultimate act of bravery and selflesness which what the whole series is about. So I kinda liked the ending but Divergent is my fav book of the series for sure!
Ah! I just finished Allegiant last night. Broke my heart!
I totally agree with you, I'm still in shock and trying to let ever thing sink in. I feel like the book was going kinda slow and the ending was just jddjdidj.
I know exactly how you feel about Tris. I hate the fact she died, I still get sad thinking about it. Now I dont know whether to watch the movie. I was like pouring in tears.
I was upset that Tris died, but a the same time I was sooo happy that it wasn't Four. I am head over heels in love with Four, and if he died, I would have been broken hearted!
I just finished divergent and I'm in distraught. It took me a long time to read it because I heard that it had a heartbreaking ending and knowing Veronica Roth I knew someone I love will die. The entire book I thought four was going to die. I couldn't imagine tris dying. When I read it I was so surprised and just dnsksk ahh I'm so frustrated.
I'm still in denial about her death, along with Fred from Harry Potter!
I know! I wanted Tris/Four babies!
That's awesome! Glad you loved it!
This was so incredibly accurate....I feel ya.
Tris dying was so sad, the worst thing for me is that she never got to see what happened to Chicago and she never had a chance of a normal life with four :( even after all she went through/sacrificed.
I FEEL YOU OMG I WAS CRYING IN CLASS WHEN I READ ALLEGIANT SHE WAS MY FAVORITE FEMALE CHARACTER OF ALL TIME :((((
I agree! I read to get out of the real world. I also won't be able to read the books the same way OR watch the movie thinking about how it all ends:( I still love the series...I guess.
That's why the book was in the present tense.
And yeah, I cried a lot too :( Tris was my favorite fictional person ever
I read it just now and it definitely made me feel better about the death. Still suuuuper unsatisfied with the book, but it's nice to know Veronica Roth's thought process behind it!
You are not alone!
she wrote a blog post about it
I really like Divergent and Insurgent because they captured my attention and took me into this world and took me on an amazing ride. In the Allegiant I had to try multiple times to get into the book, once I got past the midway point I was finally really into and then THIS ENDING happens.....
i know.....
I think the ending to this book and Tris's death was completely necessary, when thinking about who Tris was as a person, it makes so much sense, it was an ultimate and beautiful sacrifice, not every book can have a happy ending, just like real life and that's why I loved this book! ha it was just so real and raw and I loved it :)
It's really bothering me that people are judging the book mostly on the ending. The rest of the book was amazing and beautifully written. It was filled with interesting events and excitement. I also loved the ending, Tris dying wasn't bad at all. We truly see how far she would go to be like her parents and make sacrifices for the ones she loves.
Roth wrote a whole blog post about it...you should def. check it out!
Tris is my favorite character ever. I just. I swear, it feels like someone I loved died. I like, might have to go on depression meds. Seriously.
I just finished it , and I really don't know what to feel , the end was really shocking but over all I really like it, and I cried so hard!!
I just finished, I feel...broken? I don't know, maybe I'll get over it and like the book.
I know that Veronica Roth doesn't outline (I read it on her blog) and I think that if she'd outlined the entire series she would have known that Four is the other protagonist and could have written it in 3rd person or dual POVs from the beginning of the series. And it would have been better structured.
I also have mixed feelings about the book, but I just kept in mind that the book took place in Chicago and that sacrifices are real and not everybody gets a happy ending of their own sometimes
I feel the same way, I adored the first 2 books, but after this one I am not going to be able to open those books again EVER!! I cried like it was the end of the world.
Oh, and you are not alone ! We are all crying and are in mourning .... Thank god this week will a busy week for me, because I cannot pick up another book and wouldn't know what to do with my reading time.
what killed me with tris' death is that she SURVIVED THE DEATH SERUM and you think it will all be okay, but then she gets shot. Thats what hurt the most
