Wait… did Johnna just say she likes Divergent?

Longtime listeners, don't panic. She hasn't been replaced, and she hasn't completely lost her mind. But after years of criticizing the series, she's finally ready to confess something surprising:

She genuinely loves the first book.

In this special minisode, Johnna revisits Divergent and explores why, despite her frustrations with the sequels, the original novel still holds a special place in her heart. From Tris's journey of self-discovery to Dauntless's wildly questionable safety standards, there's a reason this book captured readers' imaginations and launched one of the biggest young adult phenomena of the 2010s.
