Delirium
Lena grows up in a world where love is a disease, an illness that needs to be cured so one can live a safe, happy, normal life. It is everything she knows and after losing her mother to the illness, she looks forward to receiving the cure (government regulation) when she turns 18 – until she meets Alex, and her world turns upside down.Lauren Oliver is masterful in creating a believable, moving and riveting plot and beautiful, realistic characters that draw you in and allow you to see the world they are living in (and being grateful you don’t). This is not a trite teenage love story. Delirium it is a story of a girl questioning everything she has ever been taught – seeing the truth behind the lies and learning that love (in all its forms) is something to be treasured.
