oh for sure - they are to the current young generation what Harry Potter was to mine. I totally get it.. and if it leads to reading much greater literary works, good show.
and yes, the voice in Divergent is much better than Hunger Games and FAR superior to Twilight. I wish, in reality, that the character age was higher in both those books, as I think a mid-20's voice could have increased the benefit and ability to conquer subject matter(s) brought up, but not really addressed in the books.... but then the tweens wouldn't read them. *sigh*
I'm just starting a couple new fantasy books which were suggested to me by one of my coworkers, so I will let you know how they pan out :)
