It has been years since I read the Delirium series, and I left my YA-dystopia-post-apocalyptic phase waaaaaaaaay behind me. This was the only short-story from the series that I haven't read yet and one day, I saw it staring right at me at the local library. I was in a reading slump, my current reading interests weren't doing anything, so I was hoping an old favourite would get me out of the funk.

Spoiler: It didn't actually do that.

BUT! It was nice to have a sense of “completion”, having now read everything from the Delirium universe. I don't remember much of the plot (let's be real), and reading my past reviews revealed to me that I had a love -> hate relationship with this particular character. The writing was snappy and clear, though a bit melodramatic at times. I think it would have been a great accompanying read alongside the main books.
