Divergent-Chapter 3

Last month, during the holidays, I went to the library with my family. There were my cousins, my uncle, my aunt, my grand parents and of course my parents.
I don't often go to the library but I think it's a really warmful place. You can smell the books's smells, etc. In short, it was really cool.
In this library, I saw the book "Divergent". I knew it from name because it's a really famous movie but I never watched the movie or read the book. My cousin told me that the film is really good and the universe is similar as the Hunger Games's one. They are both dystopic. I read the first book of Hunger Games when I was 14 and I just loved it. It was an amazing experience.
So I thought it was a great idea to read the book and then, watch the movie. Indeed, I think books are always better than the movies.
As I want to improve my English skills, I bought it in the English version.

I started reading the book 4 days ago and at the moment, I appreciate it. There are no a lot of action at the moment but it's normal because I am only at the page 30. My goal is to read 1 chapter a day. If I do that, I will finish the book in roughly 1 month, and I will can read the two other books later (the suite).
I am currently at the third chapter.
In the previous chapter, the main character Beatrice made the apptitude test. It's a test which allows you to know which faction you belong in. There are 5 different factions which represent a characteristic of their personality. For example, there are Abnegation, Candor, or other. I don't remember all the faction's names.
But the point is that when she did the test, it passed something weird. Her different charcteristics can't show clearly what faction she belong in. She could belong to 3 different factions. It's a rare event and people who are like her are called "Divergent".
It's something really dangerous for her and she have to tell it to nobody. With this result, at the Ceremony Day, the next day, she will have to choose which faction she will integrate. This choice is so important for her because it will determinate the rest of her life.
She was supposing to tell it to nobody but when she came home, she told it to her brother Caleb.
In the next chapter, we will know which faction she will integrate I think. It's a turning point in the story. All we know at the moment is that she excluded one of the three faction because they are bad people.
Nevertheless, according to me, I think it's a possible that she finally choose this one but I don't know.

I hope you enjoy reading my text. Please tell me how you found my English!

Divergent-Chapter 3


Divergent- - Chapter 3 Divergent - Chapter 3

Dashes without spaces are used for compound words (e.g. fast-forward). Dashes for seperating parts of a title have spaces.

There were my cousins, my uncle, my aunt, my grand parents and of course my parents.


There were my cousins, my uncle, my aunt, my grand parents and of course my parents. There were my cousins, uncle, aunt, grand parents and of course my parents.

The use of "my" every time is redundant. The reason I left the last "my" in the sentence, is that when saying (speaking out loud) a list of items, it is natural to pause a little before saying the last item in the list. The inclusion of "my" at the end also indicates to the listener that this is the end of a list, and it sounds nice to my ears. (This is only true with a longer list like you have > 3 items).

There were mMy cousins, my uncle, my aunt, my grand parents and of course my parents were there. My cousins, my uncle, my aunt, my grand parents and of course my parents were there.

I don't often go to the library but I think it's a really warmful place.


I don't often go to the library but I think it's a really warmonderful place. I don't often go to the library but I think it's a really wonderful place.

Either you meant "wonderful" or "warm".

I don't often go to the library but I think it's a really warmful place. I don't often go to the library but I think it's a really warm place.

"warm" is already an adjective. That said, I'm not 100% sure it's the correct adjective here. "warm" is usually referring to temperature. Maybe you mean "comfortable"?

You can smell the books's smells, etc.


You can smell the books's smells, etc. You can smell the books' smells, etc.

when making plural words that end in "s" their possessive form, you put the apostrophe (') at the end of the plural form. e.g. friend -> friends -> friends' ("All of my friends' toys were brought to my house") However, a more natural sounding sentence would just be "You can smell the books and such."

In short, it was really cool.

There are's not a lot of action at the moment, but ithat's normal because I am only at the page 30. There's not a lot of action at the moment, but that's normal because I am only at the page 30.

Another common phrase similar to "but that's normal..." is "but that's to be expected..."

If I do that, then I will finish the book in roughly 1 month, and I will can read the two other two books later (the suite?). If I do that, then I will finish the book in roughly 1 month, and can read the other two books later (?).

I'm not sure what you mean by "the suite", possibly "the sequels"? Also, the word order "the other two" is much much more common than "the two other".

If I do that, I will finish the book in roughly 1 month, and I will canbe able to read the two other books later (the sui(in the series) late)r. If I do that, I will finish the book in roughly 1 month, and I will be able to read the two other books (in the series) later.

I am currently at the third chapter.


I am currently at the third chapter. I am currently at the third chapter.

It's pretty common for native English speakers to say "on the third chapter", but, grammatically speaking, they're wrong and you're correct. Just an FYI (for your information), as you'll likely come across this in the wild/real world.

In the previous chapter, the main character Beatrice made the apptitude test.


In the previous chapter, the main character Beatrice madetook the apptitude test. In the previous chapter, the main character Beatrice took the aptitude test.

It's a test which allows you to know which faction you belong in.


It's a test which/that allows you to know which faction you belong in. It's a test which/that allows you to know which faction you belong in.

"which" and "that" in this context can be swapped out with each other.

There are 5 different factions which represent a characteristic of their personality.


There are 5 different factions which/that represent a characteristic of their personality. There are 5 different factions which/that represent a characteristic of their personality.

For example, there are Abnegation, Candor, or other.


For example, there are Abnegation, and Candor, or amongst others. For example, there are Abnegation and Candor amongst others.

Since "Dauntless", "Amity", "Erudite", and "Factionless" are not explicitly called "other", it does not make sense to use your original sentence. "amongst others", is a way to say that your list is incomplete.

I don't remember all the faction's names.


I don't remember all the faction's names. I don't remember all the faction names.

The plurality of "names" takes care of the plurality of "faction". You could also use "factions' names" instead, but that would be a less common way to say it.

I don't remember all the faction's' names. I don't remember all the factions' names.

"all the faction's names" - all the names belonging to one faction (i.e. the faction has different names) "all the factions' names" - all the names for multiple factions.

But the point is that when she did the test, it passed something weird.


But the point is that when she did the test, itshe passed somethingin a weird way. But the point is that when she did the test, she passed in a weird way.

I'm not 100% sure what you were trying to say with "it passed something weird".

But the point is that when she did the test, it passshowed something weird. But the point is that when she did the test, it showed something weird.

Her different charcteristics can't show clearly what faction she belong in.

It's something really dangerous for her and she have to tell it to nobody.


It's something really dangerous for her and she haves to tell it to nobody. It's something really dangerous and she has to tell it to nobody.

Since being "Divergent" is dangerous by itself (and not ONLY for Beatrice) you wouldn't include "for her" (therefore making it apply generally to any "Divergent"). Also, the phrase "she has to tell it to nobody" sounds weird, a more natural sounding sentence would be "she can't tell anyone/anybody"

It's something really dangerous for her and she haves to tell it to nobody. It's something really dangerous for her and she has to tell nobody.

With this result, at the Ceremony Day, the next day, she will have to choose which faction she will integrate.


With this result, aton the Ceremony Day, the next/following day, she will have to choose which faction she will integrate into. With this result, on the Ceremony Day the next/following day, she will have to choose which faction she will integrate into.

With this result, at the Ceremony Day, the next day, she will have to choose which faction she will jointegrate. With this result, at the Ceremony Day, the next day, she will have to choose which faction she will join.

This choice is so important for her because it will determinate the rest of her life.

She was supposing to tell it to nobody but when she came home, she told it to her brother Caleb.


She was supposinged to tell it to nobody but when she came home, she told it to her brother Caleb. She was supposed to tell it to nobody but when she came home, she told it to her brother Caleb.

"She was supposed to tell it to nobody" also sounds a little weird, a more natural sentence would be "She wasn't supposed to tell anyone/anybody"

She was supposing to tell it to nobodyno one but when she came home, she told it to her brother Caleb. She was supposing to tell no one but when she came home, she told her brother Caleb.

In the next chapter, we will know which faction she will integrate I think.


In the next chapter, I think we will know/learn which faction she will integrate I thinkinto. In the next chapter, I think we will know/learn which faction she will integrate into.

Alternate suggestion: "In the next chapter, we will learn which faction she will integrate into (I think)." (The parenthesis () turn their contents into an "aside", which basically gives you the ability to interrupt the flow of the sentence in order to add more information)

In the next chapter, we will know which faction she will jointegrate I think. In the next chapter, we will know which faction she will join I think.

It's a turning point in the story.

Nevertheless, according to me, I think it's a possible that she finally choose this one but I don't know.


Nevertheless, (according to me,) I think it's a possible that she will finally choose thisat one anyway, but I don't know. Nevertheless (according to me) I think it's a possible that she will finally choose that one anyway, but I don't know.

In your original sentence, it wasn't super clear to me which faction you were talking about. The suggestions I made make it clearer that you are trying to say "the one Beatrice might choose is the one faction she excluded" (which is "Dauntless" if I recall correctly).

Nevertheless, according to me, I think it's (possible / a possibleility) that she finally chooses this one but I don't know. Nevertheless, according to me, I think it's (possible / a possibility) that she finally chooses this one but I don't know.

both present and past-tense work here. Since technically we haven't yet finished reading all of your post by this point, it could be present-tense, but usually you would used past-tense, as we have already read (almost) everything.
