To Juju I can recommend the audiobook it really works. As for the slow start perhaps but it is better than the Hunger Games experience of the first book being the only one truly worth reading. I am eagerly awaiting the second book in this series. I was shocked by the deaths at the end but I also think there is nothing wrong with a book occasionally shocking you.DVLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02347520545095018932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-998073617976947577.post-70278448914854517442012-03-04T17:04:23.546-06:002012-03-04T17:04:23.546-06:00I really need to try this one on audio.I really need to try this one on audio.Tales of Whimsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10938494589922620170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-998073617976947577.post-1850794549095850042012-02-28T18:52:12.247-06:002012-02-28T18:52:12.247-06:00That's the problem with hype.

That being said, I've caught onto the hype and really want to read this one.Alison Can Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908868606441539344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-998073617976947577.post-54022577874066888592012-02-28T16:26:51.113-06:002012-02-28T16:26:51.113-06:00I had that experience with Delirium.

I ended up enjoying it, but only gave it four stars.<br /><br />But Divergent, that one I really did love. :)Joy Tamsin Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11559855237654982212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-998073617976947577.post-22370457610356331312012-02-28T09:05:10.358-06:002012-02-28T09:05:10.358-06:00I got suckered into the hype too and had really hi...I got suckered into the hype too and had really high expectations.

I did enjoy it enough to pick up book 2 but I'm not biting my nails and tapping my toes until it comes out.Rummanah Aasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119402559076729383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-998073617976947577.post-51405210935679366172012-02-28T06:47:08.488-06:002012-02-28T06:47:08.488-06:00I just did a review on this one, too!
