Pandemonium 
By Lauren Oliver
Genre: Young Adult Sci-Fi
Personal Rating: 3/10

This is the second book in the Delirium series, so I can't say very much about this book without giving away what happens in the first one. But I can tell you that this book was a big disappointment to me. I really did like the first Delirium novel and I wanted to continue with the series, but this book just made me feel like I was taking steps backwards rather than forward.

A whole crop of new characters are introduced throughout this novel and I did not like a single one of them. There where so many wonderful, rounded characters in the first book, but instead of keeping these great characters, we get a bunch of new ones that really got on my nerves for some reason. I didn't feel like the story line was moving fast enough and when something finally did happened, I felt like it was predictable. The chapters in this book switch back between then and now--two different points in the character's life. But the switching back and forth really took me out of the moment. Overall, I was just bored the entire time I was reading it. I wish I enjoyed it more than I did.
