In the book Divergent by Veronica Roth the main character Beatrice Prior is born in a world where everyone is split into five separate fractions depending on the characteristics of the person. These five fractions include The Abnegation, The Erudite, The Dauntless, The Amity, The Candor, and if one does not make a fraction they are left fractionless. So far Beatrice's main problem has been which fraction she belongs in because she was claimed as divergent. This is a problem because Beatrice comes from an Abnegation family but doesn't feel as if she fits in and acts of selflessness never seemed to come to her mind automatically but a fraction switch is frowned upon by many. This choice is made even harder when her older brother Caleb chooses Erudite when he was expected to pick Abnegation during the choosing ceremony. Beatrice feels as if, if she doesn't pick Abnegation she will let down her parents especially her father but she must also think about herself because this one choice changes her entire life forever.
