Requiem (Delirium Trilogy, #3)

by Lauren Oliver

[Chelsea]

I was really looking forward to the ending of this series. I was hugely disappointed though. This was probably the worst ending to a book ever. It just ended. Right in the middle of the final war. We don’t know if anything gets resolved or if the characters even survive. We know nothing. An ending is supposed to tie up everything, maybe with some things not resolved but the major problem should be resolved. None of that happens in this book. The ending was stupid and lazy.

The plot was pretty bad as well. Lena can’t pick between either guys and when she does pick Julian all she does is try to make Alex jealous. You’re in the middle of a war girl! She became really whiny and annoying in this book. She wanted to leave behind this girl who was tortured because Alex talked to her. What kind of heroine are you? Not a very good one apparently. Hana was much better in this book. She actually grew and learned and whatnot like a real character is supposed to do. Julian was kind of just tossed aside in this book. His only purpose was making Alex jealous which didn’t even succeed. Alex is a big jerk which was really disappointing too. I liked him a lot in the first book, now I don’t like anyone.

This could have been such a good series and it just crashed and burned. Don’t even bother finishing it.
