“You are brave,” she says. “You don’t need me to say it, because you already know it. But I want you to know that I know.” She is complimenting me, but I still feel like she smacked me with something. Then she adds, “Don’t mess it up.”
–Insurgent (Divergent Book 2)
Heyy I don’t remember which character said this? Could you please tell
The speaker is Tris Prior. The person she’s talking to is a member of dauntless who Tris has never really gotten along with. I will have to look up the name when i get home tonight.
Haha thanks! But i feel the speaker is someone else as the whole book is in Tris’s point of view so..
That’s actually what i meant. Maybe narrator is a better word? Anyhow, the person giving Tris the compliment is a member of dauntless. Sadly i still do not remember the name. More later!
Oh haha alright! 😃 i guess it was Molly?
(Shrug) could be. Gotta look at the book. 🙂
Yepp😅
With a library copy of the noel in hand, I am ready and able to answer this question! 🙂
The conversation is between Lynn and Tris. According to the eBook version, it occurs on pages 169-170.
Two paragraphs before this quote, Lynn says: “No matter how long you train someone to be brave, you never know if they are or not until something real happens.”
Not sure why I didn’t highlight that one – because it’s a good one.
Ahh thank you so much! Ans yep this indeep is a good one, you should post this too😃👍🏻
According to this blog it’s Lynn: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/198622925
Hmmm. I don’t own these books. I checked them out of the local library many months ago. With the movie coming out, all copies are currently in the hands of other people. (sigh) Ah well. I placed a copy on hold. When I get my grubby little (virtual) hands on it, i will verify.
