Hey everyone!! Since its only ONE week until Christmas, I will be giving away a Boxed Set of the Divergent Series. I love this series so much that giving away one will make another reader even happier if they read this series. Already having 3 copies of the series, am willing to part with this boxed set.

On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is--she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.

His arms were on either side of my head, caging me in. Our bodies didn’t touch, but I felt him to the tips of my toes anyway.                 The teasing grin disappeared when I dragged in a deep breath and my chest brushed his. Everything changed in an instant. The playful mood faded, replaced by primal heaviness. Our gazes collided and locked. Neither of us moved.
