Delirium by Lauren Oliver

3.0

In the beginning I enjoyed the world Oliver tried to create; at least she was attempting something (somewhat) original. Unfortunately, in the end the story fell a little flat. I will say that I did care about what happened to the characters, but their professions of love never seemed quite genuine enough and bordered on cheesy. I felt there were so many missed opportunities with the ending. It was a major disappointment and felt rushed. My favorite part of the book were the brief moments where it reminded me of the film Equilibrium. While both have very similar storylines, they are executed in drastically different ways. If I had to choose between the two, the film would win every time.
