What do you think of Alex and Lena? And if you've read Pandemonium what do you think of Lena and Julian?

Annie | 6 comments TEAM ALEX! i think of julian as like a fill in spot for Alex. It was a great love triangle because for a few chapter i was confused which team i was on. but then at the end i will always be on team alex. well, if she ends up with julian i dont think ill be that sad but i think lena is better with alex then julian

Michelle (michelle0613) | 38 comments I second Team Alex! Julian isn't bad, but he is nothing compared to Alex. And if Lena doesn't end up with him then I will be so annoyed.

I agree- Team Alex all the way. How can she fall in love with two guys it's crazy! This will be interesting...


message 6: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (yerawizardamanda) I have to go with Team Alex. They have been one of my favorite couplings since Delirium. Julian is sweet and nice but I just never felt it. The whole time it was still Alex for me and she just had to find him.


message 7: by Summeralism (new)

Summeralism It has to be Alex. He is the absolute, the foundation and the reason for Lena to become infected. Julian was just a Poor Girl's Alex... but I still like Julian. I just love Alex.

..."


She fell in love with two guys because she is experiencing the fullness of the infection.

Sydney TEAM ALEX ALL THE WAY!!! I HATE Lena right now, and despise Julian, because it`s totally NOT fair to Alex!!! I and VERY curious to see how all of this will turn out...


message 10: by Lizzie (new)

Lizzie TEAM ALEX!! Alex he was there first, he helped her and loved her the most. I feel sorry for Julian and don't like Lena for not trying to get Alex back like she did with Julian.

Fatima TEAM ALEX DEFINITELY ABSOLUTELY 100%!!! I just love him!!!!

Sabrina (forebodinq) | 62 comments Maybe I'm not remembering this trilogy correctly but (despite any events in the novels - except the development of characters) by the end of Requiem I think I was team Julian.


message 13: by Lesley (new)

Lesley (allusivezang) Team Alex! I have always loved their relationship and I'll admit I cried a little when he was captured at the end of Delirium. When I found out he was alive, I was so excited. Julian is alright, but he seriously has no clue what life is about- cured or uncured- and even though he was a semi decent stand in for Lena, Alex will always be her one true love. He freed her and introduced her to a life worth living.....


message 14: by Emilia (new)

Emilia (doctorherondale) | 186 comments Julian! I love my poor, sweet, innocent, Julian. I know most people love Alex and I did too in the first book. However, after reading the second one I just couldn't help, but fall for Julian. There was just something about him that I loved. Don't get me wrong Alex is a great guy too, but for me Julian just had that something more.


message 15: by Crystal (new)

Crystal I loved Lena and Alex you know I did and my heart broke when they were apart but I felt like she stood have stayed with Julian..I mean she brought him out to that world and then left them to be with Alex bascially sigh I just really wish he didnt have to be alone then I woulda been okay with Alex and Lena

message 20: by margot (new)

margot (margotwehrle) | 48 comments Yes, I realize that no one has posted on this discussion in years. No, I don’t care.And yes, Julian kind of sucks and Alex and lena are amazing!


message 21: by haniah (new)

haniah (haniiii) Alex and Lena forever obviously, who cares about Julian? He's just there to ruin their amazing relationship


message 22: by margot (new)

margot (margotwehrle) | 48 comments Yeah ... Delirium was one of the first YA romances that I ever read, and Julian almost ruined it for me. I was also really disappointed with how long it took for Alex and Lena to get back together. I mean, come on! Alex is the one who showed you that to love isn't a disease! He's the quirky, poetic, incredibly sweet guy who almost died for you Lena! How can you replace that with the oblivious doofus you got kidnapped with. And how the heck could you stay with him after your first love basically comes back from the dead! It just doesn't fit with Lena's personality, and it sure as heck doesn't feel natural.


message 23: by Nithika (new)

Nithika (nkaruna09) TEAM ALEX! I've always been on Alex's side. Once Julian came in I got so mad how long it took for Lena to realize that Alex is her true love. Like he even risked his life for her. I get that Julian was trying to make things work and realizes that she needs time, but they were not right for each other. I felt a bit guilty that Lena brought Julian to the real world and just felt him alone. He is a good guy and deserves someone. But overall, Lena and Alex all the way.


message 24: by Nat (new)

Nat (simply_bookish) Team Alex! Even though I did not like him in the third book! And poor Julian! He deserved better
