Find more of my reviews at www.readingangel.comPandemonium was an emotional punch to the gut from the moment I opened the book the second I slammed it closed and threw it on the bed in an "OMG WHAT THE CRAP JUST HAPPENED" moment. Even though I was kind of expecting the ending, thinking it was coming and reading the way that Lauren Oliver delivered it was two completely different things. Lauren Oliver just knows how to throw emotions in your face and leave you gasping.I really loved that in Pandemonium Lena had to really discover how unbelievably strong she is. She had to learn to survive and to become someone she never thought she could be. She had to reinvent herself. She stood up for what she believed in, even if that meant she had to stand up against people she cared about, which is something I really respect.There was some really tough moments in Pandemonium. I had a hard time reading about the struggles some of them went through in the wilds, like the starvation. There is one scene of grief (I won't spoil who it was for) that just tore my heart out!! Pandemonium was action, suspense, love, hate, friendship, grief, and reinventing yourself to become who you were meant to be. With another killer ending that leaves us DYING for more, Lauren Oliver once again took my breathe away and I loved Pandemonium even more than I did Delirium. I can not wait to see what she has in store for us next.
