And God, it was amazing…Īddictive, powerful, emotional, intense, compelling and beautiful, Pandemonium is a book you must read.Lauren Oliver is the cofounder of media and content development company Glasstown Entertainment, where she serves as the President of Production. I loved every second, hated who Lena hated, loved who she loved, missed everyone she missed until it hurt. Pandemonium was emotional, but in a whole new and wonderfully powerful way. Yet, despite the intensity and new storyline, I found Pandemonium just as emotional as Delirium, which made me laugh as I cried – something I did a lot. I'll go INSANE if I can't read it soon! Miss Oliver? Darn it, you've done it again! This split POV made the plot even more amazing! It was confusing to begin with, but I quickly came to love this double timeline, eating it all up, unable to put it down. And the gorgeous writing was made all the more brilliant by the split narratives – Now and Then. There was just non-stop action and I loved every second. Beautiful, raw and powerful once more I felt everything Lena felt, saw everything she saw. I adored the writing in Delirium and I loved the writing in Pandemonium even more. And I loved all the different aspects of the world we get to see, all the different people, even if it wasn't all nice! I mean, how did Lauren think of that? It's so brilliant, ingenious. I still haven't gotten over the whole love-as-a-disease thing. Raven was kinda brash and to-the-point, totally in command of everyone and the homestead and one of my favorite characters ever! She was firm, yet fair and sweet – and I really loved all of her mantras and protectiveness, and the way we slowly got to know the real Raven.Īgain, I must say: My God, how amazing this world is! It's so three-dimensional it's real and alive in my head. I loved all the Invalids, the resistance, especially little Sarah and Blue, Hunter, Tack and most of all Raven. I miss Alex…'Įven more than that, I loved all of the new characters to pieces they gave the story a whole new feel, a whole new dimension. I loved seeing how their relationship changed from mistrust and loathing on Lena's part to friendship and trust, maybe more… The pressure, the chemistry, the heat just built up and up and man, I felt it! Yet despite this and how much I loved Julian, I was just screaming: 'But I want Alex. Opening Julian's eyes, as Alex once did for her. I loved the relationship between Lena and Julian: how Lena was now the one And as much as I loved and missed Alex, I really did love Julian too. And so sweet! He had this feeling of vulnerability, of innocence, that just made me want to protect him. Both Lenas were so strong, yet so lost… I love this girl, seriously! Julian Fineman, son of the head of DFA – Deliria-Free America. While she loved so much, she hated equally. She just surprised me completely with her resilience, her hardness, her new-found unshakable strength, her dedication to the cause. Meanwhile, the 'Now' Lena was impossibly strong and determined. The 'Then' Lena seemed so vulnerable, yet unbreakable. I felt every moment, saw every single thing and was left going out of my mind, desperate for more, more, more!Īnd Lena, oh how I've missed you! I loved seeing the two sides of Lena – the 'Then' and the 'Now'. And, my God, did Pandemonium lives up to all my expectations – exceed them, actually! Once I started reading, I just couldn't stop. I felt so much throughout the book and was left desperate for more.

But leaving your old life and love behind is harder than Lena ever imagined, even when you have a whole new purpose, a whole new life and perhaps more as well…

Now Lena is an undercover part of the Resistance.
