If I could choose any book to become a movie, I would choose the book, Divergent, by, Veronica Roth. I think this book would be a good movie because this book has a lot of action. Books with a lot of action make me want to read the book more because the end of the chapters leaves you on edge, which makes you want to dive deeper into the book. Another reason as to why I believe, Divergent, should become a movie is because it shows that certain choices have to be made in life. Just like the main character, Tris, has to decide what faction she wants to become a part of. This is a hard decision because she has to decide whether or not she wants to leave her family. She doesn’t want to be a traitor like her brother but, she also wants something new for a change.  She doesn’t want to be selfless anymore as she was taught ever since she was born. And during her test results, she was told to become a part of a faction that no one would ever expect because she is divergent which means that she has to hide from the Erudite because they want to get rid of the divergent.  If you are divergent you are able to overcome the power of the truth serum so you are able to tell lies if you are trying to protect someone or something. You are also able to overcome any other type of thing invented for the people in the factions. The only thing you can’t beat is the serum made especially for the Divergent people. Just as Tris finds out when Tobias (Four) is taken away from her and given the serum. Tris on the other hand is condemned to her death. When it is finally time for her to choose where she believes she belongs, she chooses to become Dauntless. She wants to take part in protecting her home, she wants to be brave whilst jumping out of a moving train, and she is just very curious as to what lies behind the city walls. Tris later learns that her mother used to be a part of the Dauntless faction because on visiting day, her mother seems to know the hallways better than her.  If I was the director of this movie, I would decide to focus more on the reIf I could choose movie, I would choose the book, Divergent, by, Veronica Roth. I think this book would be a good movie because this book has a lot of action. Books with a lot of action make me want to read the book more because the end of the chapters leaves you on edge, which makes you want to dive deeper into ason has to why the Erudite faction does not get along very well with the Dauntless and the Abnegation. This is because the whole book is based upon that reason and it will help readers to better understand the concept of this book/ book series/movie. I probably would not leave out anything from the book because without all the detail from the book, the movie might be a bit confusing to some and I also know that people don’tlike it when the director of a movie leaves out the most important part in the movie. Also, I would not change anything because when I read a book and I watch the movie based upon that book, I don’t like how they change the look of the character or of where the movie takes place. I know that a lot of people do not like that so, as I said before, I would not change anything based on the book into the movie.
