Delirium

Delirium is the kind of book that I will never forget. It is a chilling science fiction novel about a society were love is feared and everyone gets The Cure when they are 18. The main character of this book could not be more excited for the day when she finally gets it, or more scared. Because her mother was the only person that The Cure never worked on, and she was driven so mad by love that she killed herself. But two months before her date to be Cured Lena does the unthinkable, she falls in love. This book explores the bounds of what we think is really possible, how much propaganda can twist our view of the world, and how far some people really would go to not feel anything at all.
