I wasn't as caught up in it as I was Delirium.

I waited on purpose for the series to be completed before I started it, so I want to finish it. I think it's all in how much you're willing to invest. I'm also a bit frustrated because I have such strong emotional attachment to some of the characters in the first book that are not as present in the second book as they are in the other books in the series. My frustration comes from not being able to connect with the main character despite loving the concept of the story, which is interesting. It's just that Pandemonium seems like a completely different book than Delirium, so I'm hoping that Requiem will tie them back together (I don't know if it will!) Also, there's no way I could do this series without the audiobooks and I won't even attempt it.
I personally would've preferred two longer books to a trilogy, but that's just me and it is very obvious by looking at reviews and ratings on Goodreads that I am in the far, far minority. Pandemonium, to me, feels like a placeholder or a bridge from one part of the story to the next. BUT I also think/hope there is more to be told in the story. I truly think that you could end after Delirium if you want to and be okay. We know that at any time, we're able to grab a copy of the next book and keep going. She is the perfect one for this role.Īsheley thing about the cliffhanger endings in these books is that they're now almost a non-issue since the series is completed. I am thrilled to know that when I read/listen to Requiem in a few days, it will be Sarah Drew reading it to me. As with Delirium, I chose the audiobook format for Pandemonium as a first-read because of Sarah Drew’s narration. She does a great job at reading both male and female parts. Drew is able to use the perfect tone and inflection for this story – she emphasizes the parts in ways that make them practically leap off of the pages (I follow along in print, so I can say this with certainty.) and her enthusiasm for this book is evident while she is reading these parts. I love that her voice is pleasing to my ear – not whiny or annoying. Sarah Drew returns as the narrator and I can’t tell you how perfect she is for this book. You can visit her online at notes: I mentioned earlier that the only way I was able to make it through the story was because of the audiobook’s voice actor.The Pandemonium audiobook is published by Harper Audio and is 10 hours, 37 minutes, Unabridged.
