I know I don't usually talk about books on here (never before actually),and I realize that there are enough book blogs out there, but JUST finished reading Delirium by Lauren Oliver and absolutely LOVED IT!!!!! It was very well written. In the futuristic/distopia type of America were love is thought of as a disease that needs to be cured. The author did a fantastic job on this. It progressed just at the right pace to make it seem believable, and the main character Lena felt so real. It is extremely touching(at least it was for me), and it showed how much we take for granted being able to do simple things to express our emotions, like listening to music. I highly recommend this book. It obviously has romance in it:) so if you love YA and a touching, exhilarating read, please pick it up!
P.S. Songs to listen to while reading (if you do that sort of thing) they all relate to the story in some way or another: 1.White Blank Page Mumford and Sons, 2. Hold on to what you believe Mumford and sons(again), 3. Fidelity Regina Spektor, 4. Hardest of Hearts Florence + the Machine, 5. Falling Florence +the Machine, 6. The Calculation Regina Spektor, 7. Just like U said it would be Sinead O'Connor, 8. Invasion Eisley, 9. Dreams The Cranberries, 10. Zombie The Cranberries, 11. You picked me A Fine Frenzy, 12. Early Winter Gwen Stafani, 13. Love Judy Garland, 14. Armour Love La Roux, 15. Like a Song Lenka, 16. Haunted when the Minutes Drag Love&Rockets, 17. You must love me (sang by Madonna, from musical Evita), 18. Endlessly Muse, 19.
