I listened to the abridged audio book in German. I am not sure if that's the reason why I felt so lost at times because they shortened it too much (and maybe at the wrong places) but overall it was a good book with an interesting main character. If I get the chance I might read/listen to the other books of the series.
It took me a while to get into this story and I have to admit that I abandoned the books for a couple of weeks. But when I was trying to decide with WIP to finish this year it was Delirium. It was still waiting on my kindle for me and after reading a few more pages I was totally caught up in the story. I could hardly stop to go to bed.The writing was beautiful and although the idea of dystopia isn't really new I loved the various aspects Lauren Oliver added to the overall idea.I loved it and I can't wait for the next installment of the series. I need to know what will happen to Lena, Alex and Hana and everyone else I met in this universe.
I've listened to the english version of the audiobook and I really, really liked it a lot. I love those books where you think you know the answer on one page and then you are proven wrong on the next one. While reading this you feel a lot like the main character, trying desperately to make sense of all of this while, at the same time, trying to figure out who to trust and who not.It was a rollercoaster ride from the first minute/page to the last.
Die Serie wird von Buch zu Buch besser und interessanter. Während den ersten beiden Bücher noch anzumerken war, dass Sie dringend ein gutes Lektorat (und eine Grammatikkorrektur) gebrauchen konnten, sind die nächsten Bücher sehr gut.Ich dachte vor Lesen von SCHNEEWITTCHEN, dass der Vorgänger der beste Band der Serie war, aber nach diesem Buch muss ich mich korrigieren. Nun bin ich gespannt, wie der Nachfolger sein wird. Wenn Frau Neuhaus Ihre Trend treu bleibt, dann wohl noch besser ...
Sehr gut gelesenes Hörbuch. Simon Jäger hat seine Sache super gemacht.Sebastian Fitzek auch. Der Plot war clever aufgebaut, verwirrend wie man es von ihm gewöhnt ist und hatte einige überraschende Enden, mit denen ich nicht gerechnet hätte. Die Verbindung zum Augensammler kam einem manchmal etwas zu gestellt vor, aber am Ende passte alles prima zusammen.
The book wasn't that bad and I'd like to give 3.5 stars instead of only 3, but since that's not possible ...I felt bored at times and there wasn't really a thrill in the plot. I wasn't disgusted as I had been with the other books of the series and I couldn't really warm up with the characters.I don't know if this is the book's fault or my own since it had been too long since I last read the third book. *shrugs* I will still read the next one, though. Probably ...
