![]() ![]() My first problem is that I feel like nothing happens until the last 50 pages. I have two big problems with Pandemonium. It is interesting to be able to compare and contrast Lena from then and Lena now, and see how she grows and changes. At first I didn’t really like all the jumping back and forth, but I quickly grew accustomed to it. The story switches between two different time periods: “then” (immediately after book two) and “now” (a few months later). Finally, about halfway through the book, things started to pick up, and at least become more interesting, but at the end of the day, I’m still not crazy about the book. It took me like two days to get through 150 pages. Pandemonium and I have a rocky relationship. With her signature exceptional prose, Oliver masterfully weaves a bittersweet tale of star-crossed romance with high-stakes action that fans of The Hunger Games will love. In this riveting sequel to her New York Times bestseller DELIRIUM, Lauren Oliver sets Lena on a course that hurtles through the unregulated Wilds and straight into the heart of a full-scale rebellion. Although consumed with grief for Alex, might she be falling in love with someone else? Her inner life is as turbulent as the world a round her. Now an active member of the resistance, Lena fights for a world in which love will no longer be considered a dangerous disease. The old Lena remains with Alex in Portland, Maine, behind a wall of smoke and flame, but the new Lena was born in the Wilds, transformed by hardship, deprivation, and loss.
