Lauren Oliver

Delirium is a dystopian novel for young adults written by Lauren Oliver. The story focuses on a young woman, Lena Halloway, who falls in love in a society where love is seen as a disease. Delirium is the first novel in the trilogy, followed by Pandemonium

Love was once the most important thing in the world. People traveled incredible distances in search of it, lied for it, even killed for it. And then, finally, a cure was found. Now everything is different. Scientists have managed to isolate and eradicate it, and all citizens, when they turn eighteen, must receive a cure for love. Lena Haloway has always looked forward to the day when she will be cured forever. For her, a life without love should have been a life without pain: safe, measured, predictable and happy. Suddenly, just ninety-five days before receiving the therapy, Lena decides to do the unthinkable...
