There really isn't much that I have to say about this book since it's merely a compilation of short stories told from Four—or Tobias's—point of view, but there are a couple of things that I really admire this Veronica Roth's Four.

There really isn't much that I have to say about this book since it's merely a compilation of short stories told from Four—or Tobias's—point of view, but there are a couple of things that I really admire this Veronica Roth's Four.
Tobias's character is the first. I really like the fact that I finally understand who he is as an individual. In the Divergent books, I could not really grasp his persona because his actions and words are interlaced with Tris. So to speak, the Tobias that I read in those books are defined by Tris. However, in this compilation, I learn Tobias's voice, how his mind functions, what he thinks of everything that is happening around him. I learn about his beliefs, his virtues, what he values—what he truly fears. I hear his opinions sans the involvement of Tris's character, or her own input about a certain matter.
