11 Things I Hope to See in Insurgent

[scribblemyname]

Eleven things I hope to see in Insurgent:

1. Christina’s reaction to Will’s death.
2. Something more about Natalie Prior. I know she’s deceased now, but…
3. Some family interaction with Caleb and Andrew.
4. Four/Tris. Come on. How could I not?
5. What Veronica Roth means when she says Tris is so different by the end of the book.
6. Come-uppance for Eric.
7. Some real reactions from the Amity faction to everything on.
8. The whole idea behind guarding the fence. I’ve got ideas, but I want to see the reality.
9. Marcus and Tobias interaction or resolution. Talk about cutting tension there.
10. A good Erudite member. Besides Caleb.
11. Candor unhappy about the deceit of the Erudite.

To be honest, I’m not counting on seeing all these things. But I’m hopeful.

To be perfectly honest, having now read the book (curse you), I'm more in the boat of "any sequel will probably ruin this."

Because, to my mind, while there wasn't a complete resolution, the parts that I liked would probably be destroyed in the next part. Especially if point number four is correct and she's really changed. I'm all for growth, but I don't know how she would grow in a positive way at this point.

Then again, I'm a pessimist by nature.

I have to admit, I was a little concerned at first about whether I would like Insurgent. It can go uphill or downhill, but status quo isn't likely. But I'm hopeful. She's a fabulous writer and I feel confident in her abilities.

Well, I'll have to wait to borrow a copy, so I figure I'll have a pretty good idea from other people's reactions about it whether or not to read the sequel right away.

If not, I can pretend I got the happy-ish ending in the first one and spare myself the letdown that a lot of trilogies seem to have been lately (mostly movies, but they were horrible in the way they wrecked what I loved so much about the first one.) So... that's my plan, lol.
