Have you ever had a book that your read and it gets your pulse racing. When you finish it your whole body is full of the extra energy that you have no idea what to do with? All the while screaming at the fact you can't read the next book in till MARCH 2013!! No, seriously I have to wait till then for Requiem to come out.
Delirium is the first book of this series. If you have not read it, well I recommend you do. It's a great book about how love is a sickness. How scientist have found a cure for it. Here is the Goodreads synopsis of it. Go head. Click on the link. Sounds interesting right? Now go click on Delirium and get the book. I can wait................
Was pretty good, huh? Okay well now you are caught up and ready to read about Pandemonium. If you haven't read it yet then do not read anymore. I'm not joking because just below this will be a BIG spoiler for the first book. Just a fair warning.
We find Lena in class sleeping and dreaming about her past. Were she tells us in short burst how she made it in the Wild. The story goes back and forth from the present to the past. I really enjoyed this because it kept me wanting to know more of what was going to happen. Poor Lena is still trying to deal with the fact that Alex is dead. My heart just aches for her because not only has she lost her love but the whole reason for leaving was because of him. Now she has to start this new life with out him. There are times in the book where Lena is ready to give up. I honestly don't blame her. No matter what she does Alex is in the back of her mind.
Then comes in Raven who rescues Lena and nurses her back to heath when she finds her dying in the Wild. Raven is a tough young girl in her early 20's.She seems to be the ringleader of the Invalids. Not all the Invalids mind you. Just a small little group of them. She also seems to be the one to name people their new names once they come to the Wild and shed their old lives. There is a whole slew of characters that I enjoyed getting to know. Tank, Blue, Coin, Rat-man, Sarah and then there is Julian. Sweet Julian who is the martyr for the "cure." Who's own father is willing to risk his life for the sake of the cause. I really like Julian. As I learn about how evil his father is, I just feel for the poor guy. I even feel for him when he starts to fall for our girl Lena. Which is not the best idea since she is still trying to heal from Alex. Who knows? Maybe these two love birds can make it.
All I can say about the ending is wkohowehfoiewjrifwjeiofjewjfjerkjeiwjriewjfjweio!!!!! The ending is what got me all keyed up in the first place to write this blog. I mean I kind of knew what was going to happen but I will be honest with you. I cheated. I was on the last two pages. *says in a very small voice* I looked at the bottom of the last page before I finished reading the second to last page. *looks away sheepishly*
So now that is out in the open I would love to hear what you think about it.
I'm giving this book a big fat A!
