Insurgent

I finished Veronica Roth's second installment to the Divergent triology, Insurgent,  a few nights ago.  As usual, I had the "What happened in the first book?" confusion. I really felt the need to go back and refer to book one.  However, I checked it out from the library and did not have a copy of it.  For some reason, I was really confused about the Amity faction.  I also kept asking myself, "Who was Will?" I just had no memory of this character from book one.  Overall, I was not totally blown away by the beginning of this book.  Yet I'm really glad that I stuck with it because it really picked up. I don't want to be a "spoiler" but this book was action-packed. My favorite part of these books are the serum sequences.  Roth does an awesome job of incorporating those scenes.  I do look forward to book three and the possible movie.

I hope to start Michael Grant's Fear. This is the forth book in the Gone series.  Again, I hope I remember enough from book three so I know what is going on.
