Pandemonium: "Why?! ALEX YOU'RE DEAD. GO BE DEAD!" "

he escaped from the Crypts"
I don't think Alex nessasarily "changed" persay. I mean c'mon he just escaped out of the crypts where he was going through god knows what with the whole little iddy bitty hope of Lena being there and then BAM he see's Lena promising to be another man forever. I think he is the same adorable loveable Alex that we all know and love just under a hard shell developed by the crypts.

Lena didn't know what love was so is she a dork?

yes she was but now she's cool because she LOVES all thanks to Alex haha xD and now Julian has the POTENTIAL to be cool because he can love too however that momentary coolness has been overriden by Alex's just plain deliciousness and Julian is a bit too puppy like for me so if he mans up in Requiem THEN he can be a part of the cool characters club.
Alex all the way. I liked Julian a little bit. He seemed to me as though he was a little boy. It was just one of those qualities. Maybe Lauren Oliver meant for Julian to have those little boy characteristics. Plus I don't see how she fell in love so quickly again while she was still grieving over Alex. I mean it wasn't really a rebound. I think that Alex cared for Lena more. Plus I fell in love with Alex while Lena was too. And Alex taught Lena about love. So Alex, I think he is the best for Lena.
Initially, I was rooting for Alex throughout the 1st and the 2nd book. He had that sweet, reassuring warmth and patience with Lena and I loved it. But then, Julian stepped into the picture. At first I was TOTALLY against him, just because I was still on the Team Alex train. He came off to me as naive and wimpy but he slowly started to grow on me :) He may not have that same reassurance as Alex but his trust and comfort with Lena just tickled my heart. I think I am now on Team Julian, especially after the last part of the 2nd book. I think Alex now resents Lena for giving up on him so quickly.

and replaced him with Julian so quickly

Alex completely. Julian was so..meh. But alex sacrificed everything for Lena! I feel like its gonna have a hunger games like ending and Lena will bring Alex back. They have to work. I don't even know what I'll do if she ends up with Julian.
Alex all the way. Fell in love with him from the beginning. Don't get me wrong, Julian was a catch too but the connection I felt with Alex in Delirium bypasses how Julian made me feel in Pandemonium. I do feel bad for Julian though because Lena brought him out with her. I'm not sure who Lena will choose but I'm rooting for Alex. If she doesn't want Alex, by all means, I'll take him. *sigh* Love at first read.
hmmm.... this is interesting HAHAFor me i felt that the relationship with Alex and Lena was not as well written/ developed as that of Julian and Lena. That being said, I still prefer Alex, I mean, he proved that he really did love her by his sacrifice. So of course Lena should be with him. I just wished that the author had developed their relationship better. It was awkward in my opinion how they fell for each other with kinda no reason, not very convincing, but the ending shows that Alex did truly love her.
I actually don't like Alex :p
I don't think Alex will end up with Hanna because she is cured...in fact there is a love interest for him...I can't remember her name but its not Lena. As much as I want Lena and Alex together i know they won't end up together...most likely she will end up alone.
Alex!!!!!!!!!!! i felt that had she known he was alive she would not have fallen for Julian. I'm so excited to see how this pans out!!!!!

LOL, I love it. SO. TRUE.
Alex. Definitely. I'm sorry to all the Julian fans, and I feel sorry for Jules - first love, lost, no home, blah blah blah... but Alex. Definitely Alex.

Alex all the way! He was the one to open a whole new world for Lena and besides, call me superficial but he is so so hot! He taught her how to open herself to other people and let love in, he has been the one to fuel her up and inspire her to be part of the revolution, thanks to him impacting Lena's life she has changed and he practically almost died fot her!Pandemonium
Has no one remembered that Julian is ill? Why would Lauren Oliver give him cancer when it hasn't REALLY made an appearance in pandemonium? I know this is a cruel thing to say, but I hope he dies so Lena can be with Alex without guilt. What if Alex doesn't love her back though? He seemed so... Aggressive at the end and just hard all over. LENA DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE! He couldn't stop falling in love with Julian, so I hope Alex doesn't hate her for that...
Just my thoughts

Im honestly team alex all the way, yet I dont blame her for her choice, Because her whole life shes been taught that love is horrid she's still new to it and still very naive same goes for jullian even though he annoyed the hell out of me but you got to see that he's like a little kid in a candy shop allowed to have free reign, in awe yet wanting to have it all, that his relation- ship with Lena. Both of them are naive kids that are entering a new world
Nic wrote: "No, I meant with this particular ending. Okay, I'll rephrase: this ending will be even more unsatisfactory."Hmm. Could it really be that bad? And for Team Alex lovers or Team Julian lovers? Or both? (Yikes, that would be bad.)

No quotes. I've had enough spoiled endings to last me an eternity.
Nic wrote: "LOL... Well the whole story isn't really about who she needs to choose, so i wasn't (too) disappointed by the ending. Or surprised either.It might surprise some, might disappoint a lot(on the love..."
Which is right. The whole story honestly wasn't about Julian or Alex, it was about what she was supposed to learn from being able to love. Hmmm. Three more months 'til March....
what the hell is wrong with Lena.. I don't care if she thought Alex was dead.. WTF You don't get over your true love that fast and also the one that show you the truth of your world!!! Idiot... Team Alex all the way! If I find out that he is totally not "MY ALEX" anymore(because I don't want to imagine what they did to him)I will blame you Lena!! I will kick your ass!!!(meaning:want to throw nook)
I'm sorry to everyone that loves Alex. And I don't really know why, but I want her to choose JULIAN.
I am still not sure who I want her to choose, but I think Julian, because he was the only one with some real character development in the book, Alex didn't. Plus I feel bad for Julian, Alex can survive without Lena, Julian can't, she is all he has.
Alyssa wrote: "I'm sorry to everyone that loves Alex. And I don't really know why, but I want her to choose JULIAN."Nic wrote: "But why? Their relationship, its nearly like stockholm syndrome. And it happened way too fast..."
So true... their relationship honestly does feel like Stockholm Syndrome.
But if Lena is happy with Julian, I guess she should be with him. I've stopped taking sides after like three months since reading this book. I used to think Alex should get back with Lena, but since that spoiler came out, I thought maybe Lena belongs with Julian after all. Maybe Alex deserves someone better, someone who will return the love he so badly needs. After all, Lena didn't fight nearly as hard for him as I expected.
I liked Alex alot but i am difinitly on Julian's side.Both he and Lena have developed and canged together when they were kidnapped and i think both are stronger as a couple than Lena with Alex
Plus i admored Julian from the first moment i read about him, knowing that he was a brave character who was willing to die for the cure then finding out that he has always had his doubts and wanted to take the cure coz he just wanted to die...how cant u not love Julian??
Alex Alex Alex!he's the one who taught her how to love.. and it already bothered me that Lena didn't have faith in him, didn't wait for him. It annoys me how she just forgot about him and fall in love with other guy. I'm not against Julian But I'm on team Alex. *taking things seriously*
Team Alex all the way!! I didn't think Lena and Julian connected very well in Pademonium. Julian doesn't know the real Lena like Alex. However, I do believe that Lena and Alex have changed since they parted at the fence. He still knows things about Lena that she as never told Julian [ex She told Julian that her sister's name was Gracie and never mentioned her mother to him]. I think Julian and Lena have formed a deep friendship that may be confusing with love since they have been through so much together.
