Enthusiastic YA readers or fans of popular movies will recognize Veronica Roth as the bestselling author of the Divergent series, now major motion pictures. She also penned the Carve the Mark duology. Her latest work, The End and Other Beginnings, is a stunning collection of short stories set in the future.
