Brillant performances from margot robbie and alillson Janney I remember seeing this on the news so I knew something tonya harding and Nancy kerrigan story. The movie pictures tonya as much a victim as nancy was alillson Janney plays the mother from hell brilliantly what more can I say besides margot robbies best performance thumbs up

I mean - for childhood nostalgia this book was alright.. seeing as I'm not a kid anymore it was not all that great lol
What more can I say about this - though it teaches a great life lesson as all the Sabrina shows did ... not much can happen in such a short amount of book ! Definitely reading it to the young one though - or letting her read it, she will love it

I have to admit that I'd heard so many good things about this book that I was thrilled to finally get started on it. I have to say though, that I was not hooked right from page one like I thought I'd be. It took me several chapters to really get into the story & the characters. BUT once I did, I was hooked! I can't wait to see what happens to Lena & Alex!!!!!
Delirium tells the story of love being a sickness, a disease, something that the US government has found a cure for. Society cures people at the age of 18 after they've gone through an interview process & then been matched with their mate & told what they will do & how many children they can have.
Lena's mother was infected & the cure was adminstered to her with no effect. Lena lives terrfied that she will be like her mother & therefore counts down the days until she can be cured. And then,quite by accident, she meets Alex. And as they say the rest is history!
There isn't much more I can say without giving too much away. The story sucks you in & sweeps you away. I was laughing & crying & hoping against hope that Lena would somehow avoid the cure. Did she? I don't know & that's the part that SUCKS! Gotta wait til the next book is released. ARGH!!!

What can I say but this is yet another win for Melissa Pearl?!? She is honestly one of my favorite authors, and I have yet to read of book of hers where a) it didn't warrant far more than 5 stars, and b) I didn't contemplate forgoing work/sleep/etc to keep reading! Now, we have a tag-team authorship in the works, and I have to say it's been great so far!
Kudos to a bright start to what will definitely be another wonderful series, and I'm already anxiously awaiting these girls' next adventure. =D
5 stars (of course)

I was so lucky to have received an advanced copy through a Goodreads giveaway-thank you!!
I've read all of Lisa Scottoline's books and I can say she did NOT disappoint in this one!! I loved it!
Had I not had a needy 1 year old I would have finished it in a couple of days but alas I had to read at night...Moms yall can relate! :-)
The best thing is that she allows your imagination to run wild with "who did its" and so forth and when you think you have figured it out she still shocks you. Awesome book!!

While some of the Pendergast books can be read as standalone thrillers, whether or not youve read the rest of the series, you really do need to have read a lot (if not all) of the previous books to appreciate this one. While its very hard to say much about it without using spoilers, I can say that this story is very much character driven, and you need to understand the relationships and motivations of the characters in question for the story to make sense. While there is more action than usual for Proctor in this installment, overall the style of the story makes it move along a little more slowly than most books in the series. While I did like the book, I cant say that I was completely happy with the way things were wrapped up, or with the amount of page-time Pendergast actually gets in this novel. It left me wanting more, but I guess that in itself is a good thing!
Longtime fans of the Pendergast series should enjoy this one, but Id recommend starting back with Relic if Pendergast is new to you!
