** spoiler alert ** Mad spoilers ahead. You've been warned. I...I haven't made my mind up yet on this one. I was so super excited to finally get my hands on it, but I think it fell a little flat for me. Don't get me wrong, I didn't dislike it, and I'll be waiting not-so-patiently for the final installment with the rest of you. But (and please, die-hard fans, don't rip me to shreds over this) I think the following are what didn't work for me: - it was a bit slow paced at times. It didn't give me the same heart-pounding, tearing-through-the-pages sensation that Delirium did. Probably because it was kind of formulaic in what has come to be the norm of the YA dystopian sequel: protagonist learns of a resistance to the ruling order, protagonist joins the resistance, infiltrates the ruling order...you know the rest. It was, at times, quite similar to some other sequels I've come across. - Julian. Oh man, where do I start. Damn you Lena for falling for him! I mean, I get that you thought Alex was dead and moved on and all, but...Alex! I didn't want a love triangle! It's also the mark of many a YA dystopian and it drives me nuts! I understand the intense conflict and tension it creates, but it's been done...and done...and done. Which brings me to... - Alex. Alex. Alex. Alex. I felt like each time I turned the page, I was waiting...and waiting...and waiting for him to reappear. And when he FINALLY did, it's in the worst possible situation. If there's anything worse than him dying, it's him returning bitter and resentful towards Lena. Wahhh. -Finally, I found the encounter (and later, realization) between Lena and her mother quite anticlimactic and a little hard to swallow. Your mother hasn't seen you in 12 years but doesn't give herself away? This is a woman who escaped from prison from carving out the word love over and over in stone! Gah. Although, I realize the author is probably setting us up for a dramatic reunion in the final book. This isn't to say the book on the whole didn't work for me, just some of the elements. There were some pretty cool new characters, quite an impressive expansion of the original setting, and some intense situations for which I applaud the author from not shying away, like the bitter realities of living in the Wilds. Overall, not perfect, but there wasn't enough I disliked to turn me away from the series (get real, I HAVE to find out what happens) or the author. It's gonna be a painful road ahead in book 3, my friends.
