Spectra Probiotic Works!
By Cat Woman
from Chicago
I have been using this products for about 3 months or so for my cats chronic diarrhea. It is the only thing I have done for her that actually helps. Instead of having diarrhea every day, she was having every 7-10 days. Then the vet decided to put her on antibiotics and that has totally cleared up the diarrhea and he suggested I keep her on the probiotics for the rest of her life. When she was having the daily diarrhea I tried her on just some acidophilus that I bought at [...], but this spectra product was much more effective. Not to mention it is just good for the pet. So I highly recommend it.
Seems to Work Great
By RescueMom
from Michigan
My little male cat has a LONG history of bladder infections with crystals and cystitis. He was just recently at the vet and came back with NO blood/infection in urine and also NO crystals..however he did have a sinus infection so a round of antibiotics was recommended. I asked my Vet what he thought about also using Spectra and he said it would be a good idea so we ordered it right away. Our little guy has been great and his cystisis seems to be under control - I would highly recommend D-Mannnose if cystitis is a problem - remember to always do your research!
it works!
By Fox's Mom
from Columbus, OH
We started using this for my 7 yr old german shep, diagnosed with IBD, mostly stomach. Since using the full dosage recommended, he has not vomited undigested food again, and his stool is normal!!!I plan to keep him on it. It is easy to use, just opening the capsule & sprinkling the contents on his dinner/breakfast.
Excellent Product! Plan to Use Regularly
By JA in VA
from Newport News, VA
I have two 8-year old male neutered cats (brothers), both of whom have delicate stomachs and recurring issues with constipation. They're long-haired kitties, so periodic difficulties passing hairballs also aren't uncommon. I started using this product about 6wks ago, and am very pleased with the results. I open the capsules by hand (a little delicate to do, but not difficult), and sprinkle the powder into their wet food; add a few drops of water to help it dissolve, and stir around. Both my cats will reject their food if they detect any change in its taste or texture; no problems with this product! They accept & eat readily. Others have suggested that you start by using a very small amount (a sprinkle), and wait a day or two to see how your pet reacts; increase as needed, but gradually. Excellent advice. You pet's system will need time to adjust; otherwise, a problem like constipation can flip to the opposite extreme (very loose stools), overnight. Mine are big cats (part Main Coon). Though I'm still experimenting with dosage, my 15-lb boy seems to do well with a pinch (less than 1/16th tsp) once or, at most, twice a day. His 20-lb brother needs more -- closer to 1/2 tsp daily. Take your time & don't rush it; their systems do seem to adjust over time. This product makes it possible for me to avoid putting my boys on prescription meds for constipation -- a huge benefit. Its not inexpensive, but well worth the cost!

I have been using this product for my cats chronic diarrha and found it to be the only product that does help. She still occasionally gets diarrhea but without it she would have it every day.
Great for dogs with digestive issues
By I love dogs without tails
from Atlanta, GA
I started giving this to my 1 year old dog after several trips to the vet for intermittent diarrhea/loose stools with no real answer. I was told she had too much bacteria in her digestive system and after a dose of prescription probiotics from the vet I turned to this as her daily probiotic. I sprinkle one capsule on her food twice a day and it has firmed her stools and seems to have solved her digestive issues. I like that it contains both prebiotics and probiotics.
Very satisfied with product.
By Multi Dog Owner
from Linden, MI
I started using this product after one of my dogs suffered from a rather severe urinary tract infection and had to be on two rounds of antibiotics. Not only has she been free of infection, but it seems to have a calming affect on both dogs that take it as part of their daily diet.

Great Product
By Den-Den
from Phila., PA
Both my Shepherd Mix Rescue Dogs like Grass outside that make their stools soft to runny. Since I started giving them 1 pill in the morning,mixed in Peanut Butter on a Biscut, their stools have firmed up. If for some reason, their stools are mushy, I give them 2 pills 1 in the AM & 1 in the PM. Nothing seemed to work for them until I found this Probiotic Product. I would recommend this to anyone.

Bogaerts likely to get first start behind Peavy
Giants' Vogelsong looking to find form against Red Sox
Things seem to be getting tighter by the day in the American League East. However, help in on the way for the Red Sox, who have a tiny one-game lead over the Rays in the division.
Highly touted prospect Xander Bogaerts, who was called up by the Red Sox on Monday, is expected to make his first Major League start in Tuesday's game against the Giants in San Francisco.
"He'll rotate through the left side of the infield," Red Sox manager John Farrell said Monday. "As [general manager] Ben [Cherington] and I and others talk about our position players coming down the stretch here, we're trying to build in some scheduled down days, and Xander will provide that at shortstop with Stephen [Drew]. The reason we brought Xander was a right-handed bat to complement him. That's not to say a platoon situation by any means."
He'll likely be in the lineup to support Boston right-hander Jake Peavy, who makes his fourth start with the Red Sox this season.
The right-hander allowed two runs on five hits in six innings during his last start. He also struck out four, but took the loss in a 2-1 game against the Blue Jays.
Meanwhile, Ryan Vogelsong takes the hill for the Giants, still hoping to find his form after a three-month layoff.
His fastball velocity is currently 2-3 mph slower than at the beginning of the season, something that shows he's still trying to regain arm strength after fracturing his right hand.
In his previous outing against the Nationals, the right-hander allowed three runs on six hits in 3 2/3 innings for the no-decision. He also struck out three and walked three.
"It's a little frustrating because I know I'm behind and everybody else is in midseason form," Vogelsong said after his last start.
Red Sox: Ross rejoins team
For the first time in over two months, Red Sox backup catcher David Ross was on the team's roster Monday.
Ross went through a long and arduous recovery after suffering a second concussion June 14.
His return will give the Red Sox clubhouse a veteran presence and also allow catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia to get some more rest.
"He's a guy that has handled our pitchers very well. He brings a lot of energy to our clubhouse, to the dugout," said Farrell.
Giants: Affeldt to test groin
Manager Bruce Bochy said Monday that left-hander Jeremy Affeldt might try throwing off a bullpen mound in two or three days as he recovers from a strained left groin.
Affeldt, who last pitched July 20, is currently able to play catch at a 90-foot distance.
"I don't know if I'm strong yet, but the ball's coming out really well," Affeldt said.
• With Peavy starting for Boston, Gregor Blanco will likely be back in the lineup for the Giants. Blanco has six hits in his previous 13 at-bats and is 9-for-29 in his past nine games.
Worth noting
• Giants infielder Tony Abreu, who has been on a Minor League injury rehabilitation assignment with Triple-A Fresno, returned to AT&T Park on Monday to have a groin injury examined, Bochy said. Abreu, who hasn't played since Saturday, is batting .455 (5-for-11) on his rehab stint.
• Red Sox first baseman Mike Napoli was out of the lineup for a third straight game Monday with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. Farrell hopes he'll be ready to play Tuesday.

Beyonce will perform during the halftime show on Super Bowl Sunday. / Twitter
Every fan in the Superdome will be giving Beyonce the finger at halftime. Two fingers, actually.
Each spectator entering the Super Bowl will find a pack including two small blue "finger flashlights" waiting at their seats, which they've been instructed will be part of the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show Starring Beyonce.
After letting fans know about the lights as they were entering the venue, instructions inside the packet ask the fans to not use the lights until the show and promise that further instructions will be on the big screen just prior to the performance.
Be prepared for over 72,000 fans donning these little guys at halftime.

How to get out of a land deal gone bad
Answer: Never buy anything sight unseen. You must always do your due diligence. As the owner of the property, you are responsible for all the obligations, such as association dues and property taxes. You can't simply give the lot back unless the seller agrees to take it. But if the seller lied to you about the property, you may have some recourse in court.
I do not recommend stiffing the association on the dues because you could become personally liable and end up with a judgment against you. In that case, the association could garnish your wages. You should also make sure that the property is being maintained until you are able to unload it, it because you don't want to be hit with code enforcement fines that could make getting rid of it more complicated.
If you can't find another buyer, strongly consider giving the land to a local charity. Contact real estate agents and charities in your area to see if they may be able to help you resolve this situation.

Hadith are narrations originating from the words and deeds of the Islamic prophet Mohammad. Hadith are regarded by traditional schools of jurisprudence as important tools for understanding the Qur'an and in matters of jurisprudence. ..
A classic example of Hadith is the saying: 'Islam has been built on five pillars: testifying that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammed is the Messenger of Allah, performing the prayers, paying the zakat, making the pilgrimage to the House, and fasting in Ramadan.'

A term used to describe the supposed teachings, sayings, and traditions of the Muslim prophet Muhammad. These are embraced by the majority of the Muslim population without recognizing that these teachings go against the base teachings of Islam and also tend to make the last prophet of Islam, Muhammad, look, depending on what side you're on, like a horrible, murderous dictator that had no problem drinking camel piss or killing the infidels usually indicating Jews or Christians. Hadith is supposedly a supplement to the Quran.
After further study, I realized that the Hadith is a grouping of lies invinted by shady men who lived centuries after Muhammad and that they go against the basic teachings of Islam and the belief that the Qur'an is perfect and needs no explanation.

seeing how and if this blog thing works. michelle branch is great. :)
Hey everyone,
Wanted to give you a heads up that my new website is launching this week! Please be patient as the current site will not be fully functional over the next two days to facilitate the new site going up.
I am so excited for you to see it.
I'm finishing up my album credits and thank you's as we speak (I've been putting it off.) It's really hard to believe that after 2 years of working, waiting and wondering that the single release is right around the corner. I have a few more weeks left to relax and then it's off and running like old times. I can't wait. I'm seriously bored. I mean, I'm going bowling today. Who goes bowling?
Well, it's my last week here in LA. I'm heading back to Nashville this weekend so I can attend the CMT awards on Tuesday. And then I'll be mixing the rest of the record.
Until next time...
I love you guys, no seriously, I do.
xo, M

Managing BitLocker with SafeGuard Enterprise
Click here to download now
Overview: Full-disk encryption is rapidly becoming a standard security solution, like antivirus or spam filters-a trend further accelerated by widespread use of Microsoft BitLocker. However, to support the flexibility of your workers today, full-disk encryption is not enough to prevent data loss. Your users are no longer confined to the office by their technology and their PCs, and work has become a thing people do rather than a place they go to.
This whitepaper explains how Sophos SafeGuard Enterprise secures your data wherever it's stored; and how it allows you to support diverse platforms and encryption products including BitLocker.

Two months into the 2015 State Legislative sessions and we have seen a groundswell of assaults on voters in many states. League of Women Voters activists have been working around the clock to fight back against these threats as well as to advance opportunities for voters.
The League's advocacy work in the courts, just like our lobbying in Congress and with the Executive, builds our influence in the political process.
The League of Women Voters is observing the 5th anniversary of Citizens United with a renewed resolve to limit the influence of money in politics.
I worked with the Election Protection Hotline to help many voters rectify the issues they were facing when attempting to exercise their right to vote. But it also illuminated how far we have to go to have fair, free and accessible elections for all eligible citizens.
Now is the time to start thinking about how and when you'll vote. In addition to getting ready to vote as you have in years past, voters in many states may also need to show voter identification in order to cast a ballot.
Yesterday, on National Voter Registration Day, in New York City and at hundreds of events around the country, League members reminded Americans that every election is important and that voter registration deadlines are rapidly approaching.
Earlier this month, we had the opportunity to attend a panel on the Democracy Restoration Act (DRA), a bill that would allow those released from prison, a group currently disenfranchised in many states, to regain their right to vote in federal elections.
Like the Florida League, Leagues across the country are seeking solutions to the issue of redistricting and gerrymandered Congressional districts.

Carnival cancels 12 more cruises on troubled ship
Thursday - 2/14/2013, 7:05am EST
Associated Press
HOUSTON (AP) -- Carnival Cruise Lines has canceled a dozen more planned voyages aboard the Triumph and acknowledged that the crippled ship had been plagued by other mechanical problems in the weeks before an engine-room fire left it powerless in the Gulf of Mexico.
The company's announcement on Wednesday came as the Triumph was being towed to a port in Mobile, Ala., with more than 4,000 people on board, some of whom have complained to relatives that conditions on the ship are dismal and that they have limited access to food and bathrooms.
Passengers' stay in Alabama will be limited, Carnival said in a statement late Wednesday. The company said passengers were being given the option of boarding buses directly to Galveston, Texas, or Houston, or spending the night in a hotel in New Orleans, where the company said it booked 1,500 rooms. Those staying in New Orleans will be flown Friday to Houston. Carnival said it will cover all the transportation costs.
Mobile Mayor Sam Jones said late Wednesday that the city has more than enough hotel rooms to accommodate passengers and its two airports are near the cruise terminal.
"We raised the issue that it would be a lot easier to take a five-minute bus ride than a two-hour bus ride" to New Orleans, Jones said, adding that he did not know the company's reasoning. Jones said Carnival employees will be staying in Mobile.
Once docked, the ship will be idle through April. Two other cruises were called off shortly after Sunday's fire.
Debbi Smedley, a passenger on a recent Triumph cruise, said the ship had trouble on Jan. 28 as it was preparing to leave Galveston. Hours before the scheduled departure time, she received an email from Carnival stating the vessel would leave late because of a propulsion problem. Passengers were asked to arrive at the port at 2 p.m., two hours later than originally scheduled.
The ship did not sail until after 8 p.m., she said.
"My mother is a cruise travel agent so this is not my first rodeo. I have sailed many, many cruises, many, many cruise lines. This was, by far, I have to say, the worst," said Smedley, of Plano, Texas.
Robert Giordano, of the Oklahoma City suburb of Edmond, said he last spoke to his wife, Shannon, on Monday. She told him she waited in line for three hours to get a hot dog, and that conditions on the ship were terrible.
"They're having to urinate in the shower. They've been passed out plastic bags to go to the bathroom," Giordano said. "There was fecal matter all over the floor."
Even more distressing, Giordano said, has been the lack of information he has been able to get from Carnival, a complaint shared by Vivian Tilley, of San Diego, whose sister is also on the vessel.
Carnival, she said, has not told families what hotel passengers will be put in or provided precise information about when they will arrive in Mobile, Ala. And that came after the cruise line switched the ship's towing destination from Progreso, Mexico, to Mobile.
Tilley said her sister, Renee Shanar, of Houston, told her the cabins were hot and smelled like smoke from the engine fire, forcing passengers to stay on the deck. She also said people were getting sick.
"It's a nightmare," Tilley said, noting Shanar and her husband chose a four-day cruise so they wouldn't be away from their two daughters for too long.
After losing power on its most recent journey, the ship drifted until Tuesday, when two tugboats began moving it toward shore.
The National Transportation Safety Board has opened an investigation into the fire.
Passengers have had limited cellphone service because of the power failure, but many were able to make calls to friends and family when the Triumph rendezvoused with another Carnival ship that dropped off food and supplies. The other ship had a working cellular antenna.
Tilley said late Wednesday that she had received an update from Carnival saying the Triumph had again rendezvoused with another cruise line, taking on more supplies and food, and that a third tugboat had also arrived to bring the ship to port.
Meanwhile, officials in Mobile are preparing a cruise terminal that has not been used for a year to help passengers go through customs after their ordeal.
The Triumph is expected to arrive Thursday afternoon.
The company has disputed the accounts of passengers who describe the ship as filthy, saying employees are doing everything to ensure people are comfortable.

Iwakuma set to lead Mariners against Phillies
Philadelphia turns to Burnett in Interleague showdown vs. Seattle
He doesn't receive the spotlight or the headlines like his teammate Felix Hernandez, but Mariners right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma is quietly putting together another remarkable season.
Iwakuma is 6-2 with a 1.83 ERA in nine starts since July 1 and is coming off 6 2/3 scoreless innings in a victory over the Blue Jays that raised his record to 11-6 and dropped his ERA to 2.72.
Iwakuma takes the mound at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday when the Mariners play the second of three games against the Phillies.
A season after finishing third in American League Cy Young Award race, Iwakuma has yet to draw attention to himself for anything other than his pitching. He is too busy enjoying being part of one of the best pitching staffs in the big leagues. Seattle entered Monday leading the MLB with a 2.94 ERA, bolstered by a bullpen that owned an AL-low 2.39 ERA.
"We all have the spirit to win," Iwakuma said through interpreter Antony Suzuki. "We have a lot of confidence in our bullpen and I rely on them a lot. We're working well as a team. Our bullpen has been great."
Like many of the Mariners, Iwakuma is making his first appearance against the Phillies. Logan Morrison is one of the few Mariners with experience at Citizens Bank after playing the previous four seasons for the Marlins in the National League East.
Morrison is enjoying playing meaningful games for the Mariners in mid-August for a club contending for a playoff berth.
"I've been in this park when it meant a lot more to them than it did to us," Morrison said. "Now it's the other way around, so it feels good."
Morrison has also faced Phillies right-hander A.J. Burnett enough to know that his 6-13 record and 4.35 ERA aren't necessarily indicative of the quality of pitcher Seattle will face Tuesday.
"He's got a good two-seamer, slider, knows how to pitch," Morrison said. "He's been around a long time. I've faced him a bunch of times. He's got good stuff. It'll be a challenge for us and I'm looking forward to it."
Mariners: McClendon and Sandberg go back
Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon and Phillies skipper Ryne Sandberg played together on the Cubs in 1989-90. Prior to Monday's series opener, McClendon recalled how he narrowly avoided being part of Sandberg's first error after the Hall of Famer set a National League record of 123 straight games at second base without a miscue.
McClendon played a number of games at first base that year in place of an injured Mark Grace, but not the one where Sandberg was charged with a throwing error to snap a streak that had extended over parts of two seasons.
"Gracie got hurt and I'd played first for an extended period of time during Ryno's error-less streak," McClendon recalled. "The night he made the error, Grace had come back and we were in Houston and I was sitting on the bench. When Ryno made the error, he came back in and sat down and it was weird because nobody knew what to say to him. I just looked over and said, 'I'm sure glad I'm not playing first.' He just laughed. Could you have imagined the heat I'd have taken? I was, 'Whew, I dodged a bullet there.'"
McClendon said he sees a lot of similarities between his former teammate and his current second baseman, Robinson Cano.
"Obviously one is right-handed, one is left," he said. "But they're both great at the position, tremendous run producers, great with the glove. They brought a lot of the same attributes to the table."
Phillies: Mayberry Jr. to start rehab assignment
Outfielder John Mayberry Jr. is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.
Mayberry Jr., who hasn't played since July 20, is on the 15-day disabled list with inflammation in his left wrist.
The plan is for Mayberry Jr. to play six-to-eight games with the IronPigs while splitting time between all three outfield spots and first base before getting recalled, according to Sandberg .
"With a wrist injury like that, you want to be careful with it and take your time," Sandberg said. "Possibly starting off a little bit slowly and progressing with it. Whatever is necessary, but a little more on the cautious side if anything as far as the number of games."
In 63 games, Mayberry Jr. is hitting .213 with six home runs and 21 RBIs.
Worth noting
• The Mariners are playing their first series at Citizens Bank Park and are making just their second trip ever to Philadelphia. Seattle swept a three-game series at Veterans Stadium in 2003. The only current ballpark where the Mariners haven't played yet is Citi Field in New York.
• In three August starts, Burnett is 0-3 with a 6.59 ERA and a 1.98 WHIP. Dating back to July 18 -- a span of six starts -- Burnett is 0-5 with a 6.54 ERA in 31 2/3 innings.
• Iwakuma missed all of Spring Training and didn't make a big league start until May 3 because of a strained middle finger on his throwing hand.

"I Aint Even Mad Bro God Forgives." This design provides a strong reminder to us that we need to forgive others because Christ forgave us. In Matthew 18, Jesus gives a parable of a debtor who owed a king a debt he couldnt repay. In this parable, the debtor begs for mercy and is forgiven of his debt. However, after receiving such mercy from the king, the debtor then turns around and has someone put in prison for owing him a small amount of money. Outraged, the king brings back the forgiven debtor, reminding him of how he was forgiven of an enormous debt and then asks "Shouldnt you have mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you? Then the angry king sent the man to prison to be tortured until he had paid his entire debt. Thats what my heavenly Father will do to you if you refuse to forgive your brothers and sisters from your heart." (Matthew 18:21-35). The Bible tells us that God is a forgiving God but He will not forgive us if we do not forgive others. God had mercy on us and forgave us of a debt that we couldnt repay so shouldnt we show that same amount of forgiveness to those who wrong us?

Not a bad tire for the price point. The ride/comfort is quiet and smooth. Cornering at moderate speeds is safe and reliable, this is not a performance tire - so I don't expect a racing grip. The treadwear is a good value for this tire. I drive in a variety of conditions - wet, dry, snow, highway, gravel roads and the tires handle the varied conditions very well. I would recommend this tire for a daily commuter looking for a good value.

UPDATE: Rooster corralled — It's been a bad week for roosters, exotic animals
In a Sun Herald story this morning, it was reported that Carl the Downtown Rooster, who roamed Ocean Springs streets since last summer, has been relocated to Vancleave, where he has a pen and the companionship of six hens.
Two women who work at a local grocery store found a home for him with nice pens and six hens to oversee.
Malcolm, the other surviving downtown rooster, also known as The General, is living in an attorney's storeroom, waiting to be adopted as well.
A flock of about 10 roosters showed up in July and seemed to belong to no one. Only 2 roosters — affectionately known as Carl and The General — are still alive and had become a novelty in the downtown area of Ocean Springs.
Sounds like a good opportunity for some lucky family to adopt a famous rooster!!!
Everything from chickens and roosters to tigers, wolf hybrids, leopards, and cougars are under fire this week in separate stories across the southern portion of Mississippi.
In Ocean Springs, alderman Chic Cody says the city has to address the rooster issue once and for all.
Cody's comments came Monday after a woman told the Mississippi Press that her 2-year-old daughter was scratched on the arm by one of the roosters last week.
It's the seventh reported incident of a run-in between the roosters and children since November.
Sarah Fountain, the child's mother, now wants the roosters confined or relocated and the city of Ocean Springs to cover her medical expenses.
"We need to decide about the roosters once and for all, one way or the other," Cody said.
Down in Collins, the owners of the Collins Zoo have asked a judge to return 11 animals seized for relocation on state wildlife officers in January.
The owners, Gus and Betty White, are asking the Covington County Circuit Court to review a justice court order that led to the Jan. 25 seizure of tigers, wolf hybrids, leopards, cougars and a Rhesus macaque by the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks.
The Whites' attorney, A. Regnal Blackledge, tells the Hattiesburg American that the state violated a regulation that calls for a "reasonable period of time" to correct deficiencies in facilities housing what are legally defined as "inherently dangerous animals" following an initial inspection.
He says the rule provides that after the period allotted for corrections, a follow-up inspection is in order.
Betty White said when MDWFP officials inspected her facility in October, she didn't hear from them again until January, when a court order for seizure was already in place.

One choice can transform you - or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves - and herself - while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.
Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable - and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.
New York Times best-selling author Veronica Roth's much-anticipated second book of the dystopian Divergent series is another intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature.

"Decent but not as interesting as Divergent"
Insurgent picks up right where Divergent left off and provides more insight into the factions and the dystopian society in which they exist. This time around Amity and Erudite are revealed in more detail and I found that to be the better part of the book. Each faction has a unique flavor and viewpoint of the overall society and the relationship between them all keeps things interesting.
I can't say the same for the relationship between Tris and Four. Their back and forth relationship is just not that interesting and Tris herself is a far weaker character this time around. Her constant self-doubt becomes tiring and Roth could have cut out a good 30+ minutes of repetition and it wouldn't really have changed the fundamental story at all.
This book sets up and delivers a big reveal at the end that points to a finale that will likely be very different from where the series started. That could either be a good thing or cause the series to "jump the shark." Based on the reviews I see for book 3, and from what I have heard from my friends, the latter seems to be the case.
So pick this one up at your own risk; it is a solid story but not quite as good as book one. The biggest downside to book two is that it leaves you facing a tough call when it comes to book three. For myself, I will listen to Allegiant at some point but I'm not enthusiastic enough about it to do so right now.
"Oh, Tris....get over it!"
I really enjoyed the first book. I found the Factions the Initiations and the beginning of the war very engrossing. I was OK with the teen relationship and I found Tris to be mostly relatable and found her strength and fearlessness to be engaging. In this book, having made it only halfway through, I want to tell her to get over it all. Her guilt, her self-doubt, her lack of self-esteem...she seems to go on and on. And I find it difficult to determine whether Tris is talking or thinking to herself due to the narration.
I find myself not emotionally invested in Tris with this book and wanted it to delve into the war and the differing factions. A little bit of Tris and her feelings would be fine. Add a little bit of Four into the mix and I am good. But Tris's emotions are examined ad nauseam. I have listened to about a third of this book and so little actually happens except some running around, visiting factions, and over-examining Tris's emotions. I expected more but all I got was a whole bunch of teenage strife! I guess that is what you get when you are a middle-age adult reading a book meant for young adults. (Although I didn't feel this way when I read the Hunger Games.)
Disappointed …. Now to find a grown-up book!
"good writing and voice, but story is lacking"
The narration is very good in the book and the appeal that the reader gave to the different characters kept my interest more than the story did. The author is not a bad writer- she does well with dialog and has some interesting ideas. But the actual story was lacking for me. Many things that were supposed to be big 'reveals' were so blatantly obvious from the beginning that it was just annoying to sit through. This book takes place immediately after the first one, but what I had hoped were just 'first novel' mistakes kept happening here. Tris continues to do things that are so just dumb, that I lost interest in her as a character. It isn't a terrible book, but I think it could have been a much better one.
"Hooked, despite not being a real YA"
This is just plain, good story telling. There's a little less gushy teen hand-holding and lovey-dovey stuff in this, the second book. Which made me happy. I would have been even happier if this had been released, not as a trilogy, but as one long book. But I guess trilogies are all the rage these days. I can't believe the author is just 23. There's talent there. Hey, Veronica, finish the third book soon, please. Your closeted 50-year-old white male fan is waiting.
I am an adult who loves a good YA read---but really I just love an engrossing story. If it pulls me in and I can't stop reading-I'm happy!
"Stellar... seriously... have you read this yet?"
In full disclosure, I'll start off by saying that I love Divergent. I love Tris. I love Four. In my review of Divergent I raised some things that didn't sit right with me—but, having listened to Insurgent all of my questions/issues were addressed. And while, I can't change my initial reaction to Divergent---Insurgent has made me love it more and in our trilogy-centric YA world I think that's a major feat. That being said, I am still reeling a bit by the reveal at the end and if I struggle to find the words I hope you will forgive.
The story picks up literally where we left Tris and gang---and follows them through several different areas. This really helped to flush out the world even more. I loved being able to see the inner workings of different factions. I do not want to give away anything but let's just say (while I consider myself a truthful person) I do not want to EVER live in Candor.
Tris is much more vulnerable now... deeply affected by losing her parents and wading through the guilt of Will. This story is painful and contains twists and turns that I did not anticipate… betrayal and assistance where I didn't expect it. And that end… I'm going to start listen to them both again and again... I know it.
Tris and Four… uh! Thank you Veronica Roth… for creating this relationship. Thank you for NOT (can you believe it) giving us a triangle. Thank you for your amazing and realistic dialogue. I… I really am at a loss for words to describe how satisfied I am. And anxious too.
I am in awe of Emma Galvin's talent. The emotions she brings only enhance the super intense moments. I think her performance was amazingly spot-on.
This is a killer sequel. I am satisfied in a way that I haven't been in awhile. I am SUPER stoked for the next one. I am also dreading the next one because that will mean the end…
"Struggled to finish"
I'm not sure why the author tried so hard to make Tris so wishy washy and create exaggerated drama. I bought this book in order to see where she would go with the story and I found out it was a teenage angst melodrama.
Much of the book seems to be a stream of conscious which is confusing to know when Tris is speaking versus carrying a conversation in her own head.
I'll finish the book but avoid the third installment.
Doubtful. the writing leaves me lacking for more.
Struggled for depth
"Sci-fi Romance Novel- Obviously for Young Adults"
First of all I must declare that I did indeed enjoy the story line presented by Divergent and immediately carried forward by Insurgent. After listening to the first two books of this trilogy however, I'll find it hard to spend the the time to listen to the third book in the series. Tris and Four are great characters in a very engrossing story set in an imaginative world. A story with plenty of action, relationships, and intrigue to carry the listener into their adventures. However, these books are written for young adults. I found there was much too much gushy adolescent adoration / love and meaningless conflict and confrontations between characters to my liking. The book was rife with Tris's self reflection and insecurities. The story seemed to have been constructed with a great story line but once the story was complete insertions of self reflection, insecurity, and gushy love text were inserted into scenes to extend the story. I would compare it to a poor editing job on a movie where you may have seen a filler street scene once before in the movie. This may be the fault of an inexperienced author or advisement by her editors. It got to the point where I would fast forward over much of Tris's narrative. The words began to feel too sappy. How many times do we have to hear about Four's blue eyes or regret over Will? I'm sorry to say if you are looking for a series to provide you with a "Hunger Games"-like fix you probably won't find it with these books. Insurgent and Divergent, have the hallmark of romance novels for YAs (minus any lurid love scenes) with a sci-fi twist. There's a great story but it becomes mired in too much sappy self reflection, insecurity, and gushy love.
"Just Read Divergent a Second Time"
Divergent moved along nicely and had an interesting concept. Unfortunately Insurgent is simply not that good (and if you read reviews for the last book in the series, you will see it only gets worse). Insurgent is just a cast of characters moving from place to place with the same result - needing to fight their way out of the situation only to move on to other. There's really no story, it's like one of those action movies with a lot of car chases and crashes. I lost interest 2/3rds through and just moved on.
I seem to be in the minority.... but I didn't enjoy this one nearly as much as Divergent. Maybe my expectations were too high. I found my mind wandering a lot instead of really being engaged. I felt like Tris was bouncing around from one faction to another and, instead of uncovering some of the details of the factions and world building, it felt confusing and disjointed. I also was baffled by the reactions of all the factions in light of what happened at the end of Divergent. As a reader I suppose I just accept it and move on but I found the decisions to be distracting and frustrating.
On a pickier note, there are a lot of side stories going on with characters we are supposed to remember... but I didn't. I'll admit that I'm pretty bad with names but typically authors give us some clues as to who these people are. They didn't leave enough of an impact in Divergent for me to remember all of their names. The beginning of the book was very confusing for me because I could not remember who these people were. I had to go back to Divergent because there were no contextual clues at all.

"Can't wait for Book 3"
I listened to "Divergent" by Veronica Roth some time last year around the time that I listened to "The Hunger Games". I delayed listening to this second book in the series, "Insurgent", for the mere reason that I found out that the book had not been released as yet and I simply didn't want to blow throw these books and be on that consistent waiting list for the other book to come out. Finally the third book in the series is set to release (I have already pre-ordered the book) and I just blew through this book! And this was absolutely worth my wait!
The story kept you engaged and produced a twist in the end that not even me (the most ardent book reader) could have seen coming! The characters are varied and interesting. The story itself isn't too censored but still definitely suited for a teenager. I recall thinking that the story was pretty fast paced at times, but it suited a book like this.
The narration was well and really did describe the feeling of the leading female character. You can practically hear the desperation in her voice at certain points in the story.
Overall I enjoyed this title immensely and can't wait for the third book in this series to be released!
"An amazing sequel!"
The dystopia in which Tris lives becomes even more vivid in Insurgent. The politics and power-struggles are more fierce, the themes of control and rebellion are more poignant. I loved the direction that this book took.
Tris and Four's relationship hit some speed--bumps in this book, which is common in sequels. However, I'm glad that this remained a background conflict. Both Divergent and Insurgent keep the love interest as a pleasant aside, instead of making it the heart and soul of the story.
I particularly loved the exploration of each faction in this book. While we saw a lot of the Abnegation and Dauntless factions in the first book, there were more situations involving Amity, Erudite and also The Factionless in Insurgent. I also really enjoyed how much more we learned about Tobias/Four's family.
In my opinion, the book had only two teeny-tiny little drawbacks. Nothing so big that I'm going to give this any less than five stars! The first was that Tris kept shutting Tobias out. I always find it irksome in books when characters don;t just talk about things which are blatantly going to cause trouble. Still, it did up the conflict. The second thing was something which always annoys me about sequels...
You know when you watch a TV show which ends on a big cliffhanger and then you have to wait a week for the second part? Well, before part two airs there's always a catch up, right? A quick 'n' dirty thirty-second recap which just refreshes the ol' noggin. Well, the older I get and the more books I read, the more I think all series books should have a paragraph or two at the start which reminds people like me what the hell is going on! Like I said, I'm not gonna take a star off because I get confused easily! He he.
All in all, this rocked. I can't wait for book three to come out. The ending of this book promises BIG things and it's going to be an agonising wait!
"Another strong dystopian piece from Veronica Roth"
Like the first book in this trilogy, Divergent, i love Insurgent and have it in Paperback, Kindle e-book & Audible audiobook.
Insurgent starts where Divergent finished and in this installment the dystopian world is thrown into chaos.
With fierce political and power struggles, the sub themes of political control and social rebellion are even more enhanced.
In this book the reader/listener gets to discover and experience more about each faction and the factionless.
Remaining questions for Divergent are answered while new ones are created, some of which are answered before the book ends and some are not, leaving you wanting more.
The return of Emma Galvin as narrator is very welcome, she does a brilliant job.
I cannot wait for the third and final book in this awesome trilogy.
Highly recommended.
"Good series !"
I really liked this series and am especially looking forward to the next instalment however I don't think( as many of the marketing campaigns would suggest) it is on a level with the hunger games. It seems to draw on many of the hunger games themes and ideas ( different segments of the city etc) which is annoyingly repetitive.
The novel pretty much starts off where the first one ended, making it a bit difficult to follow with out a bit of divergent catchup. However once properly settled the plot really takes off and I found it difficult to put down!
Be warned the ending is a cliff hanger, not a brutal one but one never the less, so anyone looking for closure might be better off elsewhere!
Overall highly recommended!:)
"Easy Listen"
Not quite as good as the first book but definately still an enjoyable listen and am now just waiting for the final installment.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
