I don't know if it was just lack of being around females that made him act this way (and trust me I go to an all girls school and whenever a person of the opposite walks by, my beloved classmates throw themselves at him) or what, but I was pretty skeptical of him at first.
The love interest, Julian, would say weird things like, "your hair smells like roses" or "your waist is so small" (yes), that not only creeped Lena out, but creeped me out too. Also, at times, I felt that their relationship was a little forced. It might be because he, for me, was a little naive or it could be plainly just because he wasn't Alex. I have to admit though, I did kind of dislike Lena's new love interest. If that is enough for you to run away screaming from this book, by all means, do, but let me just tell you now, you are missing out on a hell of a lot of goodies if you do that. I also know that a lot of you didn't really like the fact that Lena is "allegedly" going to fall in love with someone other than Alex, and I'm sorry to tell you guys, but that fact is true. So I definitely think of her as part of the "kick-ass heroine" club now. I definitely saw more of Lena in action scenes (and winning) in this book than in the previous. She even is deemed strong enough by her fellow rebels to be part of the resistance. Now without all those regulations and boundaries, Lena was able to unleash her inner survivalist, which wasn't a very easy thing to do, after all that she's been through. But in Pandemonium, I feel that she definitely redeemed herself. I know that in Delirium, a number of people didn't find Lena that "kick-ass" heroine that we all love (in her defense, all those rules would scare me too, into rebelling). In Pandemonium, Lena is having to survive in the Wilds with her new friends, is having to prove herself worthy to be in the resistance, and is having to forget the boy who made her rebel in the first place, infected her, Alex. But I really should've known better than to doubt Lauren Oliver. There had just been too many shitty sequels that could make me enthusiastic about reading them. Where is the next one when I need it the most?īefore reading Pandemonium, I really doubted that this book could follow up to Delirium and its (tragic) ending. EVER.īut then a bit later on, it hits me how hilarious the situation Lena's gotten herself in and the laughter starts.īut what a hell of a book. That had to be the most awkward "awkward moment" I've ever read in a book. You can visit her online at Also posted on my blog, YA Anonymous.
