HOW SELF-SACRIFICING!!!! BUT NOPE ALL IS FORGIVEN BECAUSE HE LEFT A NOTE THAT SAID FORGIVE ME AND HE STILL LOVES HER!!!! (TOLD TO LENA BY HIS TWO-SECOND GIRLFRIEND THAT HE PROBABLY GOT JUST TO KEEP LENA AWAY AND HURT HER MORE.) THAT EXCUSES EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!Īnd because Alex/Lena are endgame during the last five pages of the book, why not just make sure the book is chock-full of Lena/Julian scenes just for the hell of it? I guess Julian's purpose of teaching Lena how to let go and move on and love again was totally bullshit. Oh, he wanted to give Lena up and let her go so he decided to lie and hurt her at every chance he got and be a huge asshole instead. Alex, who was a HUGE ASSHOLE THE ENTIRE BOOK. (SUCH GOOD CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT IN PANDEMONIUM!!!! WHAT HAPPENED HERE HOLY BALLS). Julian was totally forgettable here, his only purpose being to make Alex jealous for Lena and not having any further character development either.
Instead of character development, she had recession of character development. Her character growth from the second book was basically stomped out. At least Hana had some character development, unlike anyone else in the book. Hana's story was better than Lena's story. The Lena/Hana back and forth POV chapters were okay. She asked to leave behind a burned, injured, defenseless girl who had just lost her home and family all because she was jealous that Alex talked to her. what happened to you? You were bland in Delirium, had this AMAZING character growth in Pandemonium, and here? You were petty and whiny and annoying.
