Delirium review

The book I'm reading is called Delirium, by Lauren Oliver

Prompt:
• List the reasons why another person should or should not read this.

Some reasons other people should read this are: The characters have many layers, It gives a way to indulge in adventure without the danger, The main character is trying to figure out how to be an adult witch we will all have to do one day, and finally the characters are relatable and realistic.

• List the events, in order, that have happened so far in what you’ve been reading.

First the main character (Lena) is at her evaluations (this is a test used to pair people with the correct spouse) and it is interrupted by a shipment of cows. Second she is running with her friend when they meet the boy (Alex) that she saw at the test. third she gets to know him better and finds out he is there illegally. Next she retakes the test and is paired with a boy. Next Lena decides to get to know Alex better, and they start dating. Finally (so far) she meets her pair and Alex sees her.

• List five characters and their personality and physical traits.

Lena (main character)- Short, brown hair, green/brown eyes, average weight, and pale. Quiet, cautious, kind
