"You must read. You must." Ella doesn't know who her father is. She was raised by just her mother, who, for some reason, is determined to make Ella read. For an Abnegation to even own books is a crime, let alone trying to read them. So why is Ella's mother endangering both her and her daughter? Just before Ella's sixteenth birthday, which is also Choosing Day, where she chooses what faction she will live in for the rest of her life, her mother reveals a huge secret - one that will change Ella's life forever. Ella wanted to choose Dauntless, but now she is unsure. Will she have the bravery she needs to join them? Because it's hard to know who you are when you don't know who your father is. People say choices are good. You can choose your own way in life. It's time for Ella to choose hers. I do not own the city or the factions. They are Veronica Roth's. However, all of the characters are mine. WARNING: Very slow updates!
