![]() ![]() ![]() Oliver isn't one for easy answers or thorough explanations it's the big themes about love, sacrifice, freedom, and choice that she wants readers to take away, not just the "Lena and Alex" storyline. If you think there will be some magical epilogue spelling out everything that happens to these characters, think again. Readers who don't mind the fact that the romance is present but not overwhelming will find themselves unable to put the book down, even though there are enough plot holes and unanswered questions to make the ending feel abrupt and unexpected. Even though Lena thinks about her feelings for Alex and Julian all the time, their reality is too grim and confusing (not to mention focused on fighting the regulators) to allow for the kind of thrilling romance that hooked some readers in Delirium. This third book is more preoccupied with its young heroine’s personal journey in a horrific dystopian society than which guy she'll end up choosing. Readers hoping for the same swoon factor as in the original book will be disappointed. The third and final book in Lauren Olivers powerful New York Times bestselling trilogy about forbidden love, revolution, and the power to choose. ![]()
