Lucinda I know, I really wanted to enjoy it but I just couldn't really get into it because there wasn't a lot of action in it and I guess I prefer action in dystopias :/ I felt bad about it.

Have you read it?

Nope, but I have it too read...I love action, but I've only read 1 dystopian so I'm pretty much open to any dystopian that's thrown my way :)

Delirium was amazing!! I hope you enjoy it! :) I didn't hate both of these books-I was just let down a bit my Uglies as I found the pace quite slow in the beginning-but loads of my friends who have read it have said they really enjoyed it, so I really hope you enjoy it! I haven't read many books I haven't liked this year, but the reason I put Throne of Glass as one of my worst books of the year was because, again, of the slow pace at the beginning; but I did really love the ending of this book :) I hope you enjoy both of these books! :) xx
