The first movie and "Fault in Our Stars" both came out in 2014, which meant that we had to see Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort go from playing siblings, to being boyfriend and girlfriend who are both dying from cancer, offering us even more heartbreak and angst.

Honestly the fact that they were in CHICAGO the whole time killed me as a teenager 😂

Girl you woke up and put all your “I can fix him” energy into the worst sack of man you could’ve found

I love how Shailene Woodley and Miles Teller played lovers in The Spectacular Now, then played rivals (Peter being a fcking terrorist) in Divergent. And Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort playing siblings in Divergent, then playing lovers in The Fault in Our Stars.

The crossovers are wild. It’s fr a multiverse with them.

The way that 90% of this book series is dependent on serums girl wtf

Random storytime: I was obsessed with this series in middle school and read the first 2 books a ton of times. But when I was reading the last book for the first time, I was on a super long car ride with a bunch of kids from my youth group. When one of the girls saw me start reading that book, (spoilers ahead) she turned to me and said, "oh my gosh, isn't it so crazy that Tris dies in that book?" She spoiled the book for me right when I started reading it, and I'm still not over it. I still to this day have not reread the third book because I just go into a blind rage anytime I think about this girl spoiling it for me

I remember finishing the last book when I was younger while on the toilet and I was sobbing 😭

Not even going to lie the fact that Tris was so insufferable after the first book, I wanted to see her die in the movies. It was the only reason I watched them, since Christina was shelved. THEN SHE DIDNT EVEN DIE 😭

Hunger Games and Divergent?? Now only the Maze Runner movies are left to complete the (holy) trio of the 2010s ya dystopian movies 👀

When I first read Allegiant I suspected Tris was going to die at the end because the book had suddenly switched to being told by Tris and Tobias perspective and the cover said she must make her Final choice, emphasising the word final in bold. It was the first and only book I read where the main character dies and the first time I predicted the ending correctly.

HUNGER GAMES AND THEN DIVERGENT?? AMANDA IS FEEDING US

No one ever believes me when I tell them that most of the third book is them just hanging out at the Chicago Airport basically watching a reality show of their friends inside the city...Like it is a trip man!

Divergent is just about the horrors of standardized testing 😂

The fact that I was obsessed with this series in middle school while being undiagnosed neurodivergent can't be ignored

I love Divergent, I think Insurgence is ok, and I don’t like Allegiant! It was definitely a down turn 😂

Also, Peter?! Amanda… it isn’t a love triangle. He’s just a bully

I don't even want to make fun of two teenagers worrying about the age gap of 2 years, when there are so many books out there portraying unhealthy relationships of the teacher - student kind, but 2 years? That's so sweet and perfectly normal

When I was reading it for the first time I did not notice that Tris died😅😂. I read the part were Tobias is told that she is dead and was like "wait? Whaaat?" I went back and reread it. Main character died and I didn't feel anything 😂

I read the Divergent series in my early teen years and at that point I hadn't read anything where the main character died so I thought she'd survive and then she didn't, which has stuck with me ever since. from then on whenever it looked like the main character could die in the book I got nervous because I'd lost that faith that the main character never dies and I didn't want to see another character I got attached to die.

The fact that I don’t remember Tris dying and Four becoming a politician is probably a sign I need to reread these books

Totally forgot about mentioning the bonus short story where Four and Christina end up together years later after the book series ends. 🤣
