BOOK 1 of 2 All Vanessa Eaton had ever wanted was to start over. Most of all, she wanted to be free. When the opportunity to rid herself of her abusive father arises, Vanessa decides to throw caution to the wind and grab fate by its horns. Her choices lead her to Dauntless and she holds onto hope that her new faction would give her the strength she needed. Just when she thinks she has finally caught a break, life throws her a curveball. Not only is she brought face-to-face with her long lost brother, who was nothing like she'd remembered, but a certain blue-eyed leader seems to have his sights set on her. Now, Vanessa is faced with a new set of challenges and she must decide who to trust...one wrong move and she might just end up at the bottom of the Chasm.

**COMPLETED** Harper Von Treese was Erudite. She chose Dauntless not because of a yearning for excitement or a veiled sense of bravery. She choose Dauntless to unbury the truth and the lies, the deceit and corruption between Erudite's leader Jeanine Matthews, and Dauntless leader Eric. With only the memory of her father who guided her down this path, she must fight her way through initiation, and get under the skin of Eric to discover the truth. But will she drown in the chaos, trickery and lust before she reaches her goal? Updates are daily unless something comes up.

I apologize for inconsistencies as I did not like the movie or the books (those of which I saw/read) but I do like Jai Courtney. Image for cover is Brooke Shaden's (not the writing)]
