As an avid fan of dystopian literature, the concept of this book was what caught my eye. Love has been declared a dangerous disease in alternate United States, and anyone infected (and those over 18) must go through a procedure called “the…

This book is really good! Definitely one of the best dystopian books I have read so far. It's really interesting that they explain love as the disease and caused all the wrongness in the wrong. Somewhat predictable, but it reads really…

I remember I didn't want to read this book because it was a romance novel. But I did because my friend wanted me to. And I couldn't have liked it any better. This dystopian novel makes us realize that we shouldn’t take things for granted…

Love makes people do strange things, wild things, illegal things, and can, at times, be a nuisance. Love takes us to the highest highs, and the lowest lows. But what if there was a cure for love? For all kinds of love – first love,…

I have already read the first on and the second one And the third one. I was ready to throw the books across my bed room at some of the "OMG, I can't believe that had happened" or at the parts of " No, don't let it end like that" It was so…

The book was pretty boring in the beginning. The author should have added less detail and just get straight to the point. Honestly, the book only got interesting towads the end when Alex came into her life.

Very cliché and predictable, but the concept itself was interesting enough. The writing was rather weak as well, and didn’t give me a particularly big impact, but it was tolerable to a certain extent. Reminded me very much of the book…

Delirium is your standard dystopian romance, the plotline of a young girl who falls in love in a society where love is seen as a disease is very creative and intriguing; however, the book did not live up to its great potential. The…

Have you ever felt like your parents are trying to keep you from falling in love or from being with your SO? Imagine living in a world where love is totally suppressed. This dystopian novel is about just that.

Great book! Lena seems to grow as a character, and I also had grown to love Alex as well! Hana seems to bother me just a bit though... Can't wait for the next book!

A world without love. The mention of it can get you tossed in jail, everyone is taught that it is a fatal disease and city citizens are cured of it at the safest possible age. Everyone is terrified of amor deliria nervosa, but none so much…

I enjoyed Matched and expected Delirium to be similar. I was wrong, Delirium is amazing and has more depth the selection series. It catches you in with bold ideas and the characters are real and interesting. It is an amazing book! but the…

I expected this book to be like Matched (which I found to be very cliché and boring), but was totally surprised and amazed at how interesting and engrossing Delirium was. The idea of love being a disease, and people forced to be cured from…
