Divergent summary

So far I don't really feel like I'm in the book Divergent like I always do for other books. So far the book is pretty dull, but can be exciting at some points of the book. Divergent is about a young women named Beatrice. In her world/time, there isn't anymore outcasts or anyone that doesn't do anything. In her era, everything is run very tightly. There are 5 factions. There is Abnegation, Erudite, Dauntless, Amity, and Candor. Each one has it's own meaning and job. Abnegation is supposed to be selfless, and supposed to forget about themselves, in order to help others. Erudite is supposed to research and find new cures, and are very intelligent. Dauntless are ruthless, and protect the city and society. They are basically the army. Amity is a whole different side because they are all about peace and love. They are like hippies but they work in farms. They do mostly farm work and protect nature.  Candor is the honest. They can't lie, and they are kinda like Abnegation, because they also help a bit in the government, but still different. In the beginning of the book, Beatrice is in the Abnegation faction. She was well known by others, but not until she took a test that officially decided were you belonged. It was up to the person wether that should listen to it or not. She took her test but despite of it, she decided to become part of the Dauntless. It was a life changing experience for the shy girl in Abnegation. She went from being a shy girl to being the most brave and ruthless soldier of the Dauntless. She then came around a few conflicts, but managed through like always. She found out that one of the factor's are trying to take over other factions, so she fights for freedom.
Beatrice start as a shy quite girl in her faction. Always found with her brother Caleb who is the type that is well trusted and responsible. He was a bit like Beatrice but he broke out more. When Beatrice finally joined the Dauntless, she broke free from most of her worries. She was finally fearless and ruthless. Beatrice didn't take anything from anyone. She was respectable and she was respectful but she was still always on the top to be her best of her class. Tobias was Beatrice's couch or leader of her group of newbies. He on the other hand is also fearless. But he has trust issues. Later on throughout the book, Tobias opens up to Beatrice which reveals everything and shows why he is so overprotective.
