Dew Divergent Theme
A dystopian style book called “Divergent” written by Veronica Roth. The main character is Tris who is struggling about who she truly is and belongs to which of the 5 factions. The main themes in this book has mentioned about identity, fear, and bravery. Identity helped shape who you are. One choice can transform you so believe in who you are. Tris has to choose whether to stay with her family or abandoned them to be in other factions. "It’s my choice now, no matter what the test says. Abnegation. Dauntless. Erudite. Divergent." pg. 23 . However the result shown that she is Divergent and does not fit in any of the 5 factions but she accepted to be in Dauntless and believe that she is brave. "I am selfish, I am brave." pg. 47. Being Dauntless is not about being bravery at all but it is about what you believe in and overcome the fear. "I used to think the Dauntless were fearless. That is how they seemed, anyway. But maybe what I saw as fearless was actually fear under control." pg. 239. Tris has to face the fear but she could overcome it easily because she is Divergent but the choice of being Dauntless does not fit much for Divergent.

I like your paragraph on the theme of divergent because you included examples and provided the page number from divergent. Rather than brackets you can put "something" because it is a quote from the book.
ReplyDeleteYour paragraph is well written and you used quotes from the book and I think that instead of using brackets (Something) yo can use quotation mark "Something" instead you also had great examples and followed TREE overall I think that this is a great paragraph.
