Delirium / Lauren Oliver

Amor deliria nervosa, a grim diagnosis with frightening symptoms. We know it as "being in love", a serious disease which, hopefully, we will all catch sometime. This is a story that helps get it all in perspective. Sure, you can have the cure and get rid of the hassle of having "feelings" but...and this is what Lena discovers. Is it a life worth living, and will you resist when the men in white coats appear? You need to read this book NOW so you'll be ready when they do come to take you away.

This book will appeal more to girls, but anyone who is interested in a thought-provoking story about freedom and choice, should pick it up.
