Delerium

Recently I read a book called Deleruim.  This book was great.

            This book was mainly about a girl named Lena whose mother killed herself.  This memory has haunted her all of her life.  She meets a man named Alex a few months before she gets cured.  She falls for Alex and Alex falls for her.  Alex saved her life many times and she was thankful.

            She wanted to be with Alex but she was afraid she was infected with Deleria.  Deleria is a disease that they get when they fall in love.  She was counting down the days when she gets cured.  She meets her match who is the person she will marry when she is cured.  He is cured and very mature.  She hates him and so she runs away and he comes out to try and hep her.  She still doesn’t like him and wants to go visit Alex immediately. 

            In the middle of the book they go to the Wilds and they stay there for a few days.  The Wilds is where the invalids as they refer to the stay.  The invalids are the people who refuse to get cured.  It is illegal to be out there.  Later she wants to go back out into the wilds and they made a plan to go back out into the Wilds.  That is where the book ended.

            This book I would think is for people ages 12 and up because it contains very graphic scenes.  I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read books about dystopian societies and books about fake diseases.
