Delirium: Forbidden love in a dystopian world.

Delirium could be a great read for fans of dystopian YA novels, as it provides a unique twist on the genre by exploring the idea of love being a disease. The story's most distinctive feature is the notion of the government "curing" everyone of the ability to love, and the consequences that come from resisting this oppressive regime. Readers will find themselves rooting for Lena and Alex's forbidden relationship, and eagerly following their journey through the series.
