Author Veronica Roth shares her story

Can Transform You

The “Divergent” book series, written by Veronica Roth (left) , will be made available in local public libraries.

f the buzz around the newest young adult “Divergent” series proves true, fans of the “Hunger Games” will have a new hero to follow, taking the role of girl heroine to a different level set in a world unlike any other. Chicago author Veronica Roth has spent the last few years in a whirlwind, wrapped around the success of the New York Times Best-Selling “Divergent” trilogy. The first book published in 2011 is set to hit the movie screen in March 2014, and what is being called one of the most highly anticipated books of its genre, the third book, “Allegiant,” will be released Oct. 22. Teens and adults alike are captivated by the series, with fanfare spreading just as fast, or possibly faster than the “Hunger Games,” much to Roth’s own awe.

Glenview police report another attempted child luring By Alex V. Hernandez Staff Reporter

A 15-year-old girl told Glenview police that a man in a black SUV asked if she needed a ride at about 6:30 p.m. on Sept 25. Police say the girl saw the SUV parked in the parking lot of Jackman Park, 1930 Prairie St. The man inside the SUV began to speak to her from inside his vehicle, asking a

couple questions and then eventually offering her a ride.According to the police report she ignored his questions. She then ran away and hid until the vehicle left. The girl told police the driver and vehicle, a newer model four-door SUV, matched the description of a man who on Sept. 17 repeatedly asked a 15-yearold girl if she needed a ride. In that incident the 15-year-old female Glenbrook South student said the man

drove a black four-door SUV with a tan leather interior and asked her three times that evening if she needed a ride near the main parking lot of Glenbrook South High School, 4000 W. Lake Ave. In that incident the suspect eventually gave up after the student told him repeatedly that she did not need a ride. In that incident, the male suspect was as about 20 years old, possibly Middle Eastern or Indian, with a muscular build,

possibly 180 pounds with black medium length hair. In the Sept. 25 incident the male suspect was clean-shaven and had shorter hair. Glenview police asked that people who see a vehicle and driver matching this description call 911. Anyone with information about the cases can contact Glenview Police Commander Don Hohs at dhohs@glenview.il.us or 847-9016035.
