Blog Tour- Delirium by Lauren Oliver, Meet Hana

We're excited to be the 3rd stop for Lauren Oliver's Delirium Blog Tour. Today we're introducing you to Hana. Before we do, here's a little bit about Lauren's soon to be released book, Delirium.

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 (quoted from HarperTeen).


Hana
I’ve known Lena forever—at least it feels that way. Even though we look completely different, we like to joke that we’re twins separated at birth. I’m an only child but I’ve always wanted a sister, even though Lena says it’s not that great. She hardly ever sees her sister, Rachel, any more. And when she does, Rachel just sits there with her lips folded all tightly like she’s got a stick wedged up her butt. Don’t tell Lena I said that—she wouldn’t like it. See? That’s what I like about Lena. She thinks about other people’s feelings, you know? She’s thoughtful that way. Sometimes I swear she can read my mind.

Now that we’re graduated from high school we’ve got one summer. One summer to do it right—one summer to do it our way, before they slice open our brain like a pork getting filleted. My mom hates it when I talk about the procedure that way, and of course they don’t really cut it open, but still. It’s hard to find anything fun around here, though. Portland’s as small as a pimple when you’ve been here your whole life, trust me. I’m not sure if it’s better anywhere else, though…I mean, it’s not like I’m some big expert on other cities. At least I have Lena. We always have fun, even if we’re not doing anything. One more summer…

  6. Hana's rebelliousness was something I really enjoyed in Delirium. Her friendship with Lena is also so tender and heartfelt - they truly are the best of friends.

    I hadn't seen that video of Lauren Oliver, so thanks for sharing!
