I think you answered your own question to some extent, OP. I read Divergent and thought it wasn't that great, but I also enjoyed it. I liked that it took a lot of really cheesy YA tropes and kind of almost made them work. Like there was a decent in-story reason for the goffik makeover, and the author justified having the main character look in a mirror and consider her own looks pretty adeptly. And the idea of an entire dystopian adventure based around the premise, "Everyone is supposed to have just one personality type, but I can't be chained to your Myers-Briggs!" is still chocolate-covered crack to my inner thirteen-year-old.
