Book Review: Allegiant

How To Turn A Writing Success Into a Failure In a Subtle Way? Write an awesome and original story- Like a dystopian world where people are divided into factions according to their virtues.

It would also be good if the story put a solid emphasis on female strength. Complicate the story of each Main character by involving them in a to-die for and non-instalovey romance. You can even whip out a love triangle but a lot…
