Is everyone as excited as I am over this announcement?

First Requiem Review!!!

Warning: Thar be minor spoilers ’round these parts!

That’s right folks, it’s no joke: an ARC of Requiem has been read and reviewed by Lenore Appelhans over at Presenting Lenore.

CLICK HERE TO READ THE REVIEW OF REQUIEM

Too good to be true? Nope. Lauren Oliver comments on it herself:

We definitely learn some new information about the final installment of Oliver’s trilogy in this review. So read at your own risk! Having read the review myself, I can say that it’s exciting to get a taste of Requiem. But if you want a completely clean slate when opening to Chapter One, I recommend not reading these reviews of ARCs, which are bound to pop up more and more often as we get closer to that wonderful day in March 2013.

If you’ve read the review and would like to comment, please put a spoiler warning before your discussion of anything that is new info from Ms. Appelhans’s review!

Movie 2013?

On twitter marauderxing asked Lauren if Delirium the movie would be released in 2013. As you can see she answered with she doesnt know when it will be out. Do you think 2013 is too soon for the movie? Is it more likely to be 2014? lets all just hope it’s all been hush-hush and the film is done and will be out next week. Positive thinking everyone!

That’s right, folks, Lauren Oliver is no longer accepting entries for her Requiem ARC giveaway. I hope you all got your submissions in and the best of luck to you all!

Lauren Oliver writing another Delirium novella, talks Requiem

During a spontaneous Q and A session on Twitter, Lauren Oliver answered a few questions that hinted toward exactly what we’ll be seeing in Requiem, as far as POVs and the possibility of Hana’s return!

And if you’re having a hard time waiting until March for Requiem, it looks like we’ll be getting a novella before then!

Who do you think the alternating POV will be? The arrangement of these quotes makes it seem like Hana, but it very well could be someone else like Raven or Lena’s mom.

Thanks to crimson-muse for the heads up!
