I finished Delirium which was such a good book. It took me a little while longer because some of the parts were really slow but once you got to the last twenty percent, oh my god, I was hooked. There was just so much in that last bit that fulfilled me in so many ways. I really loved it because it was just, it was different. It was different than a lot of the things I've read in the dystopian setting. The people weren't aware of how bad it was.
Honestly, it actually reminds me of what I liked so much about Brave New World even though everyone around me hated it. I liked it because I knew things were bad and I was getting this glimpse into life that they didn't see. This is what could have been. People are complacent with the way things are and that is a terrifying future. It just holds so much illusion that this world is prettier than it is for people.
So on that note, I'm really glad I get to put it in the read book list. I think now, I'm going to read pride and prejudice, along with probably the Hunger Games again. I really want to reread that book because this was just moving and I know that the two books couldn't be farther apart but I'm so into the dystopia right now, it's a little bit crazy. Only two books away from completing another resolution of mine. This is insane. I've never finished one resolution, let alone two. This is a happy and spirited time for me and I hope that all of you are having just as good of a time as I am.
