Delirium #4

Delirium

by Lauren Oliver

     An obstacle that Lena, the protagonist of my novel, is that the community she lives in does not allow love, and Lena falls in love with a guy named Alex. Lena and Alex overcome this together by keeping their love secret from everyone except from Lena's best friend. Another obstacle Lena has to overcome is the shock of finding out that her mother is alive and that she had escaped from the Crypts. The third obstacle is at the end of the book. It is when Lena and Alex have to run away from the community and into the wilds, and the community's security is chasing them. In the end, only Lena escapes.

     There are a lot of obstacles that I have not mentioned in this blog post. However, I thought that these obstacles from my novel were the most important and had the largest impact on Lena's life.
