The Fault in Our Stars coverbook

"The Fault in Our Stars is a novel by author John Green. The story follows the main character, Hazel Grace Lancaster, as she battles cancer. Not only is Hazel trying to live the normal life of a 16-year-old girl, but she is also struggling with what it will be like for her parents after she dies. While Hazel attends a church support group for cancer survivors, she meets a boy that is one year older than her, Augustus Waters. While Augustus had a type of cancer that causes him to lose his leg and wear a prosthetic, it also has a survival rate that is much higher than Hazel's death sentence. Then, they fall in love."

Divergent coverbook

"In Beatrice's world, there are five factions that carry out the daily duties of civilized living. They are Abnegation which is in control of the government, Dauntless which is in charge of security both inside the city and at the city walls, Amity which is the faction that grows most of the food and fills the role of caregivers, Erudite which is in charge of education and research, and Candor which is in control of law and justice. A child is born to a faction, but once they reach about sixteen years of age, they are given an aptitude test to help them decide which faction they will live in for their rest of their lives. Those who choose to leave their own factions are free to do so but must pledge loyalty to that faction of their own family. The idea is sound with each faction teaching and cultivating the traits necessary for their functions, but the reality is jealousy and fighting among the factions." (Source: bookbag.com)
