COMING SOON!

Pandemonium, the second in the Delirium Trilogy, 
releases on February 28! 
Yeay!

If you haven't read Delirium by Lauren Oliver, you must read it NOW!
Delirium is the first book in a dystopian trilogy. "Before scientists found the cure, people thought love was a good thing. They didn’t understand that once love -- the deliria -- blooms in your blood, there is no escaping its hold. Things are different now. Scientists are able to eradicate love, and the government demands that all citizens receive the cure upon turning eighteen. Lena Holoway has always looked forward to the day when she’ll be cured. A life without love is a life without pain: safe, measured, predictable, and happy. But with ninety-five days left until her treatment, Lena does the unthinkable: She falls in love." - Good Reads

If you liked The Hunger Games, you'll definitely like Delirium.
