Veronica Roth

Complete your Divergent library with Four! Fans of the Divergent trilogy by #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth will be thrilled by Four: A Divergent Collection, a companion volume that includes four pre-Divergent stories plus three additional scenes from Divergent, all told from Tobias's point of view. This collection also makes a great pick for fans of the blockbuster movies who want to delve deeper into the character played by Theo James. Readers first encountered Tobias as "Four" in Divergent. His voice is an integral part of Allegiant. Readers will find more of this charismatic character's backstory told from his own perspective in Four: A Divergent Collection. When read together, these long narrative pieces illuminate the defining moments in Tobias's life. The first three pieces in this volume—"The Transfer," "The Initiate," and "The Son"—follow Tobias's transfer from Abnegation to Dauntless, his Dauntless initiation, and the first clues that a foul plan is brewing in the leadership of two factions. The fourth story, "The Traitor," runs parallel with the events of Divergent, giving readers a glimpse into the decisions of loyalty—and love—that Tobias makes in the weeks after he meets Tris Prior. Also includes three additional scenes from Divergent, told from Tobias's point of view! And don't miss The Fates Divide, Veronica Roth's powerful sequel to the bestselling Carve the Mark!

Grace Sinks

For some reason, my first thought is her, her wide eyes staring at me from the recesses of my memory.

"It's over," I say, wincing — she punches harder than she realizes. I ignore the pain and run a hand over her hair. because I'm stupid, and inappropriate, and stupid…

Then she slips her fingers between mine, and I stare at her, startled. I squeeze her hand, lightly, and it registers through my turmoil and my exhaustion that though I've touched her half a dozen times-each one a lapse in judgment-this is the first time she's ever done it back. 

Then she turns and runs to catch up with her friends. 

And I stand in the hallway, alone, grinning like an idiot. 

One thing I know: For helping me forget how awful the world is, I prefer her to alcohol.
