Delirium

In a dystopian society where love is considered a disease called 'amor deliria nervosa,' seventeen-year-old Lena Haloway eagerly awaits her eighteenth birthday when she will receive the mandatory cure that eliminates the ability to love. However, just months before her procedure, Lena falls in love with Alex, a boy from the dangerous Wilds, which forces her to question everything she has been taught about love, freedom, and what it means to truly live. The story explores themes of government control, individual freedom, the power of love, and resistance against oppressive systems. This is the first book in a dystopian trilogy that examines how society might function when human emotions are regulated and controlled.
