Delirium series book 1

Ninety-five days, and then I’ll be safe.

I wonder whether the procedure will hurt. 
I want to get it over with. 
It’s hard to be patient. 
It’s hard not to be afraid while I’m still uncured, though so far the deliria hasn’t touched me yet. 
Still, I worry. 
They say that in the old days, love drove people to madness. 
The deadliest of all deadly things: It kills you both when you have it and when you don’t.

Before scientists found the cure, people thought love was a good thing. They didn't understand that once love--the deliria--blooms in your blood, there is no escaping its hold.
Things are different now. Scientists are able to eradicate love, and the government demands that all citizens receive the cure upon turning eighteen. Lena Haloway has always looked forward to the day when she'll be cured. A life without love is a life without pain: safe, measured, predictable, and happy.
But with ninety-five days left until her treatment, Lena does the unthinkable: she falls in love.
