When Nick moved to his house in Long Island, New York, he seemed to buy it on the wrong part of Long Island because his house was pretty small since he had just got there, but everyone's house all around him were huge, over-towering mansions. I believe that Nick is feeling inferior to his neighbors very much. He mentions how he feels like a small bug against the extremely tall buildings. He believes that he can work up to that type of house if he works hard enough at being a bond salesman. Also, he had a couple come over his house and they brought up multiple times about being rich. It agitated and annoyed Nick very much to make him inferior.
I believe that Nick Carraway's father was very hypocritical during Nick's childhood and that carried on when Nick was going to live in Long Island, NY. During his adolescence, his father would tell him a life lesson that applied to whatever wrong he did. However according to his father, those rules, or lessons, did not apply to him as he was extremely hypocritical when he did something to apply to those life lessons. I also believe that this time was a very dark and forgettable period in Nick's life due to his dad being hypocritical. I personally think that Nick might have tried to tell him those life lessons back, but his dad got angry and probably told him only adults are suppose to say those lessons to their children. When Nick decided to start living in Long Island, his father probably would ask him first why he was going, since in his father mind there was really no reason for him to go, and then he would tell him to go because he really does not care.
Once Tris, Four, Susan, and Caleb leave the Amity by jumping on a train because of the "battle" with the Erudite and the traitor Dauntless, they saw many factionless people on the train. They then got asked to start living with the factionless since they were wanted by the Erudite. This made me wonder if there was more factionless and if they were strong enough to combine with the Abnegation to create a large army to fight against the Erudite. Tris and Four would be able to train and teach all willing people how to fight and be brave like the Dauntless. This could create many problems with the Erudite and the factionless and the Abnegation could eventually overpower them and reset the peace that was in state before everything happened with Tris being Divergent.
I believe that Tris and Four are becoming more partner-like and will grow more in love as they try to work together to protect themselves, and their factions against the Erudite and the Dauntless traitors. They are spending more time with each other than ever before. However, there is a possible chance that these events could break their relationship up. Even though spending time with each other, they are not spending a happy, memorable time and not talking about each other directly. If they ever broke up it could create many problems. Tris and Four could start some type of fight that could provoke the Amity to kick all the visitors out of their faction. Tris could also start feeling more lonely since the only person close to her left would be her obnoxious brother, Caleb.
I predict that someone will find the gun and Erudite records that Tris is hiding under her bed because she is very protective of them and keeps on telling herself that if anyone got on hold of the records that she would be devastated. The records hold the only truth of the Erudite destroying the Abnegation faction, her hometown, and the death records of her parents. The problem with the gun is that under the terms of the Amity, that no weaponry was allowed into the faction. Tris kept it because Tobias always told her to keep at least one gun if possible just in case. If the gun was found by an Amity member they could get thrown out of Amity and that could spark another problem now with Abnegation versus Erudite and Amity.
Also, the third and final book of the trilogy, Allegiant, is coming out soon!
Coming out March 21, 2014 is Divergent on the big screen!!! Cannot wait!!!
I believe that Tris is having a difficult time while being with the Amity. Not only are her parents dead, but she also has to try to figure out what Erudite is trying to plan. Under the terms with the Amity, Tris and all other guests cannot talk about plans against the Erudite because Amity wants to be "Switzerland" in this case, trying to keep the peace with both Abnegation and Erudite factions. With the nightmares she been having, she is very worried and stressed. I also think that Tris's brother is not liking her choice in her boyfriend, Tobias. This is adding more and more pressure on Tris to now keep the peace them and still try to fight back against the Erudite for what they did to her parents.
In the book, they were explaining the events of the stickup and Drew brought up the gang and drug talk him and his mother used to have. He also then brought up himself playing basketball. I predict that a foreshadowing is taken place where Drew is playing on the basketball team when somehow he is taken under the influence in drugs and maybe even a gang. I predict this because his mother trusts Drew not to participate in drugs or gangs because of the talks they have been having. One way that my foreshadowing could happen is that one of his friends on the basketball team could persuade him to join with him in drugs or begin or join a gang. If this happened, this would devastate his mother and ruin Drew's hard work trying to get into the NBA.
