Delirium Tease

Delirium (Delirium, #1)
by Lauren Oliver

Before scientists found the cure, people thought love was a good thing. They didn’t understand that once love -the deliria- blooms in your blood, there is no escaping its hold. Things are different now. Scientists are able to eradicate love, and the governments demands that all citizens receive the cure upon turning eighteen. Lena Holoway has always looked forward to the day when she’ll be cured. A life without love is a life without pain: safe, measured, predictable, and happy.

But with ninety-five days left until her treatment, Lena does the unthinkable: She falls in love.
 


 

Sorry, this was is longish, but the scene is an interesting one, and will give you a feel for the tone and the story in general.  
Thanks to the Polish Outlander for sending this to me!


My cover looks like this --->
