Chapter 23: Goodbyes

And the second after we learn of the twist the plot pops off!  We compliment Veronica Roth on her pacing, we once again get lost in the IMDB page of the Divergent movie, and we go on lots and lots of tangents.

Plot is happening! Teenagers are happening! 

I apologize to Christians everywhere for saying Jesus only spent 30 days in the desert. It's 40. Excommunicate me.

This one's beefy, ladies, theydies, and gentlemen.  Buckle up for the next act to kick off and for five million things to happen in one chapter in order for that to happen!

This club has everything - cult talk, dtr, jokes at Four's expense, inconsistent characterization of Tris and so much more.

Both of these chapters are...4 pages long. We swear. 

We ~learn things~ about Four (that we already knew); what a ~mysterious and sexy man~

tw: suicide and suicidal ideation for the entirety of the episode

In this chapter we talk about Al, his incredibly fucked up memorial service and we touch on our favorite topic - cults.  We also talk about how Colleen's dad invented a boyfriend for her whole-cloth over Christmas so it's not all doom and gloom.

Happy New Year! You still can't beat up or hit on your students! 

Should you fear God? Should you have a name? Should you talk to adults? 

This one is TOO LONG. TOO MANY THINGS. WHO ARE YOU STEPHANIE MEYER.
