    I was sad when she died because Tobias was never happy in his life. When he met Tris, he was happy. When she died, he would most likely never be happy again

    I just hate that SO many great Characters died, like for exampe Uriah.. Why not just let HIM live at least or Fernando in Insurgent.. Why kill all those great characters, where's the satisfaction in that? It almost felt like every character just randomly died to make the book more and more depressing. It was a great read though and I'm happy that I read it!

    After Tris got shot and the chapter ended, I was like "shesnotdeadshesnotdead" but once Four finally saw her body I had to accept it. I cared nothing for the rest of the story, but holistically it was a good ending. SHE JUST DIDN'T HAVE TO DIE!

    • @marisab7306
      @marisab7306 8 років тому

      Same! I sat there for five minutes convincing myself she wasn't actually dead and trying to stop crying before reading the next chapter. Once I found out she was actually dead I died. After I finished the whole book, for two weeks everything reminded me of FourTris.

  • @pianodancer5
    @pianodancer5 10 років тому +86

    I completely agree with the two point of views. I felt that the author did a poor job of making the characters personalities different. In Divergent and Insurgent Four was portrayed as this strong mysterious character and that is what I loved about him. And when I was reading Allegient I was so annoyed with Four and I was thinking no, this is not who Four is... So, I felt that the author should have just kept it with Tris's p.o.v.

    I think the water on the cover for Aligiant is the water to end the fire. From the beggening the divergent cover was a divergent fire and in Alligiant we figured out of our main characters who are divergent dies. Meaning there flame is gone. The water is the idea of the water putting the flame out

    What really hit me hard was that Tobias' last words to Tris were "I love you," and "I'll see you soon." Tris was my best friend. I understood everything she did. It was like we were twins or something, the way she explained herself was exactly the way I explain me. I love when you can relate to a character because when you are reading in first person it is hard when you don't agree with that main character. I will always love Tris and yeah, I was a little ticked at Tobias. I mean, while he is talking to Peter and his mother and all that stuff, Tris is dying. I can't say that I would not have gone into that room to save my brother. Even though he's a jerk. I don't think I would hesitate. I love Tris. I love Tobias. When she died. I died. I literally cried my eyeballs out. I had to read her last line over and over again till I finally realized it's real. Tris died. When Uriah died, I cried. The tears were not as bad as when I cried for Tris. When Uriah died, I felt like I lost a friend who was close but not that close. When Tori died, I was still mad at her for what had happened in Insurgent. I didn't cry. But when they found her brother, alive. I cried. So basically I fell in love with Divergent and I am actually Divergent myself. I took the test and got the same results as Tris. Wow, this is a long comment. I am done here.

    In Divergent...
    The synopsis looked good,
    The cover looked nice,
    You opened the book,
    And began a new life.
    You found a new home,
    You met some new friends,
    You kept on reading,
    Hoping it would never end.
    You danced through the pages,
    And sang out the words,
    And felt all their joy,
    And all their pain and hurt.
    In Allegiant...
    The pages cut your fingers,
    The words cut your heart.
    Like Veronica had a knife,
    And was tearing your soul apart.
    You laughed with the characters,
    And with them you cried,
    You fell in love with them too,
    And with them you died.
    And when the book reached it's end,
    And your broken heart couldn't heal,
    You suddenly realized that this is not real...
    Sorry I am late to this... And hey not every book can't end with a Disney Princess ending.... But still I agree with you.. The ending was WTF... You should read we can be mended... IT ABOUT TOBIAS AND CHRISTINA AND IM LIKE WTF THEY COME TOGETHER.. I UNDERSTAND WHY TRIS DIED BUT TOBIAS AND CHRISTINA COME TOGETHER WTF... AND FUCK CALEB... He doesnt even grieve for her that much and he still gets the happy ending... I honestly don't like the way Tobias acted though after Tris's death.. He should've died too and got together with Tris in heaven idk... OH AND FUCK DAVID TOO..

    SPOILER: Wave Meaning Theories (of the cover):
    !. "I suppose a fire that burns that bright is not meant to last." Allegiant page 492. Water puts fire out. Tris dies.
    2.Divergent (flame on cover) Is the beginning, Allegiant concludes the series as water kills fire.

    • @addictivegamer102
      @addictivegamer102 7 років тому

  • @sgracesful
    @sgracesful 10 років тому +21

    I have a feeling that Roth didn't have it all planned out from book 1. It felt halting and off, like Veronica just couldn't figure out a better way to give us the answers. The book was quite unsatisfying overall. But I'll admit that I liked the last few chapters with Tobias. Anyway, the way you described everything in this video is just about how I feel about Allegiant.

  • @SmultronsyltNatha
    @SmultronsyltNatha 10 років тому +16

    Just finished the book today. I think I'm kind of over Tris's death now, but I was so sad when it happened. I really wanted Tobias to get over her and get a new girlfriend at the end, 2.5 years later. It was still obvious that their love was real. A new girlfriend would be a good symbol of the fact that life goes on and it is possible to love more than one person for real in a lifetime.
    I'm surprised that you didn't talk about the symbolism and meaning of the book, like the similarity between the GD/GP conflict and racism/other discrimination. Another possible analogy to our world is how smart people don't always make smart decisions (e.g. Tris: "But I think that no matter how smart, people usually see what they're already looking for, that's all" (about the Bureau scientists' inability to realise that all problems are not caused by damaged genes) on page 256). They also discuss how costly this decision has become, since a lot of effort, suffering and money is put into these massive experiments which could be absolutely meaningless. It highlights the importance of knowing the truth before you impact people's lives this much. Again, there are many possible analogies to our time and political desicions made in our societies.
    The book also discusses the conflict between truth and happiness - both when Tris reflects about how knowing if the GDs were in fact worse people would make her treat them (better not to know?) and when Tobias wants to take the memory serum to avoid living with the pain for the rest of his life.
    Another interesting topic was lying governments - how the people without experience naturally supposed that their government was fair and honest, while the people from Chicago realise that they could be lying, because they have experienced lying governments several times before.
    I also noted that we never really get to know if the GDs are damaged in some way and create more problems than the GPs. Is that a stance from the author that it isn't relevant? Does it mean that some information can damage our way of viewing people and create unjust discrimination?

  • @preads5430
    @preads5430 9 років тому +5

    I absolutely loved how this book ended. It concludes the series and it leaves an important, yet sad, message. When Tobias at the end says - Since I was young, I've always known this: life damages us, every one. We can't escape that damage. But now, I'm also learning this: We can be mended. We mend each other. - That is an important message, saying that even though grief is 'there' we have friends and family to support us and life goes on. I'm glad that Tobias doesn't commit suicide, like in some other books that I've read. I'm so proud of how Veronica Roth ended it because it was a brave decision. It makes sense and even though I cried my eyes out every night, when I go to bed, I think that this was perfect! There's a key message in the movie 'Cat Away' and that is - Just keep breathing. That's what Tobias does and it makes me so happy and sad. Thanks for reading!

    i started crying because of Caleb sacrificing himself and everyone agreeing just because he doesn't mean much to them. One shouldn't die because their life doesn't play a big role in your life. I was disgusted by the way it didn't take much of a toll on Tris so I was thankful Tris decided to do it instead of him. I'm probably the only one who thinks this though

    SPOILER......I am so mad at the ending. After it happened I was waiting for it to be somehow wrong. I was flipping through to see if a chapter would have her name above it :( I was so mad she died and then felt so bad for Tobias, he went through so much in his life and he finally had Tris and then she gets taken from him. Ugh still upset, I just finished reading it like 10 minutes ago.
    Overall I wanted something different outside the fence. Not at all what I was expecting. I enjoyed the relationship aspect of this book but not the plot. Divergent and Insurgent I LOVED! Allegiant fell short for me.

    Even before i began with the series, I saw it on booktube "Allegiant has a sad ending" etc etc I was not exactly spoiled but I had an apprehension that either the main character or her love interest would die. And then when I picked up allegiant, it was expressed through a dual perspective. And hence, I understood that my fears were true. And alas Tris died. I was not happy with this. There are many books such as TFIOS, A Walk To Remember where one of the main characters died. But they had an illness and secondly the book wasn't from their point of view. Even though Allegiant was told from both POVs our journey with Tris was much longer.

Because the relisation that tris actually died, that she was gone actually kicked in and it was like a river coming out of me. And the thing that got me the most was when four was like when she jumped into the net and how he thought she was beautiful. The ending was beautiful to this book and i know that this is a series that i wont ever forget about.

I'm so sad he died. I did tear up but I didn't cry!!! Ughh something is wrong with me. Anywho I didn't mind that tris died. I felt like "oh finally something different."

    UNTIL I found out why Tris was sacrificing herself for.
    I have a brother. He's 20 and I'm almost 22. He's STILL my baby brother. He can betray me like Caleb did and I wouldn't even hesitate giving up my life for him. That's when I knew that Tris was meant to die and that the decision was the right now. I am destroyed and weird as it maybe, the moment my brother came home, I spent the rest of the evening with him... This book only made me evaluate the love I already knew I had for my baby bro... :'(

    This trilogy to me was a mix of emotions. I loved Divergent, it was just amazing. The way it was written, and the characters.
    Then Insurgent came and I was a bit pissed off at Tris because in Insurgent she like.......she was quite the stubborn girl. She was reckless throughout it but Insurgent was still a good book. Sometimes I got bored through it, I made it through. Then Allegiant, man Allegiant was good it's just that you're left with nothing, like Tris is gone. What can you think or say?? I definitely loved her in this book because she was Tris, she was brave, she definitely grew from Insurgent. Then she died, like really? When she did I actually wanted to know Four's reaction, and he like just was frozen from what I remember. I read this finished this trilogy in March, so I don't remember much. I wasn't actually satisfied, I think I should have been but was not probably because I could not get over Tris's death. A part of me wanted to say she was okay, like someone saved her and was just hiding of something but the other part of me just said to accept it. I wonder how the movies will reenact this whole thing.

    @amandakuhn9030 10 років тому +4

    My first though? "Really?! REALLY?! Are you kidding me?! AFTER ALL WE'VE BEEN THROUGH!?!?!!! *THIS* is the finale Roth chose to write?!"
    I'm not kidding when I say how pissed I was. This book is like opening a a big bag of chips and disappointed to found out it's content is just almost half of its packaging. There were so many possibilities for how this series could have ended but this book is a massive waste of 526 pages! NOTHING happened! Well, except at the end where I was so bloody grateful that it was over!!
    Reading this book was depressing, boring, and dull. Pushing myself to finish it was like willfully eating glass. The alternating POV's was enough to make me hate this book alone. I didn't read the books to know what the hell Four thinks! I couldn't give two flying farts in space about his inner monologue! I read the books to know what Tris thinks!
    Note to Author: If it ain't broke don't FIX IT! It was almost as though Roth was more in love with Four than Tris was! Especially with all the extra stuff she'd been releasing from Four's POV in the past year. And since I think it's common knowledge by now, but when Tris, a character I once held in high praise, "bit it" I CHEERED about it! And I'm not a sadist, I just was that annoyed/depressed throughout the entire time I spent reading this book!
    Personally, I LOVED the first two books, but this book should have NEVER been written! There were SO many different ways for this story to end and Veronica chose to take a left turn into Stupidville where this book ran for Mayor and won! This is a very rare moment when I pray to God that the movies are better than the books; anyone who knows me knows that it's practically sacrilegious for me to root for a movie adaptation to out shine the book.

That always stuck with me somehow, but I didn't actually think Roth would actually kill her off...and I knew I was right that exact moment when tris was dying, Tobias got his mother back..SMH! it's been like almost a year since I read this book and watching this video again is opening some wounds lol

    When Tris died, I cried so hard. I was not expecting that at all for some reason. Tbh it wasn't like some tears dropping. I was full out SOBBING.

    I felt sad knowing that Tobias needed Tris and how she just left his life - is heartbreaking. I feel very sorry for Tobias. ☹

    I was reading the book in the middle of class and I got to the part where Tris died and I was sobbing and everyone was looking at me weirdly and I was laying on the floor and then my friend had to take me out of the room. All my classmates are used to this now because its happened before and they know when to not approach me while im reading.

    I was so upset when Tris died. Four should not die she told us Tobias would not die.

    I was incredibly satisfied. I thought it was beautiful and I don't think I would have wanted to end any other way. No book has ever made me cry before (not even TFIOS, though I did love that book), but this one had me in tears, and I was grateful for that. To me, it didn't feel like overwhelming or unnecessary sadness, it felt right. I loved Allegiant. Great booktalk, Christine!

    just finished the book a few minutes ago and just all the tears. everywhere. started getting emotional the second Tris revealed the plan, cuz you're right it's immediately clear that it's not actually going to be caleb, and then page 450 til the end i was continuously crying. I was glad Tris and Four were able to have a few last happy moments, but it also hurt because I knew Roth wouldn't be giving us those moments if Tris's fate wasn't sealed.

    Couldn't we just get the happy ending? Or that Tris was shot but lived? Like whyyy????

    Divergent was so good until the war began and I knew every thing else was going to be sad. Tris was so good I love her but I didn't really like Christian at first .she and the other they gave tris a hard time when she was doing. Better than them in the second stage. Her death was a shock to me because I'm used to the leads staying alive so when I found out I stop reading the series altogether

    My opinions on the different POVs are the same. I was tearing up and then smiled when Four asked Zeke how Tris climbed into the zip line sling.
    It was really sweet.

    I finished this book/series today.... I'm pretty sure I'm just going to sit here and cry for another hour or two. Thank you for this video, it helped me laugh through this terribly sad/stupid ending. That being said lets hope Veronica Roth writes another series with more amazing characters!

    I just finished Allegiant about 10 minutes ago and I had to always put down the book once I felt tears in my eyes because I knew they were just going to flood down my face so fast. So I then had to walk around my room and compose myself until I could actually start reading again. I'm still shaking. It's 2am in Australia right now, I can't even deal.
