  5. I'm really glad you have quotes from Divergent too - Four really has said some nice things! And I also agree with the quote you picked from The Goddess Test - it's a good one!

    I've got to admit, whilst I find Puck's lines more amusing, I'm a Team Ash girl myself! Love the Ash quote as well, by the way!

    Great list and thanks for stopping by!
