Another young adult dystopian trilogy by Veronica Roth The 2nd book Insurgent is out and the final book Allegiant is due out in late October.
It takes place in a future Chicago, and involves factions on fighting teenagers, so it can’t help but draw comparisons with The Hunger Games. There is a lot of hype around this movie, it was a great book!
