Review: Pandemonium - Delirium Series #2 - Lauren Oliver - March 2012

At the end of Delirium , we read as Alex and Lena fell in love and the whole world turned against them , we discovered that everything that Lena had been told about her mother when she was six years old was a lie and that her mother had actually been locked up in the Ward Six of The Crypts for the past twelve years and life in The Wilds with the Invalids wasn't as half bad as the schools had taught them. In the last chapter of Delirium , we read and cried as Alex and Lena are separated and we are left to wonder whether Alex will return and will Lena ever see her mother as we learn she is one of the few prisoners that have escaped. 

Pandemonium starts with Lena running away from her family and escaping into the Wilds , where she meets a group of Invalids who take her under their wing. Life is hard but they cope by working together and for Lena it's alot to take in after coming from what is considered a privileged life . The story flips between Then - her life arriving in the Wilds to Now - her life at the present moment. When Lena and her friends infiltrate the DFA - Delirium Free Association ,Lena finds herself kidnapped along with the head of the DFA's son Justin , soon the pair of them will be spending their time together to try and get them out of this mess. What happens though , when Justin discovers that Lena isn't cured and finds himself with strong feelings for her ? Can Lena risk falling in love again ? Lena has a brief encounter with her mother not realising that it is in fact her mother till it's too late, will the mother and daughter get a proper reunion in Book #3 ? OMG , the ending - who is the newest arrival to the Invalids and what is their connection to Lena as she recieves a blast from her previous life ?
