So I read this book because I love Lauren Oliver with everything that I have. I love the Delirium series and I own Before I Fall (which I do plan to read next.) and I do consider Oliver to be one of my favorite authors. I find her writing style to be very interesting and smart and easy to follow and...

Read this review and more on my blog October Tune!When I first heard about Panic, a book written by one of my favourite authors Lauren Oliver, I might have freaked out. I seriously loved her Delirium series, and I loved Before I Fall as well, so it was kind of a no-brainer for me when I heard about ...

This was another great story by Lauren Oliver! She is quickly becoming one of my must read authors. I can count on Oliver delivering an intriguing plot, well-developed characters and vivid descriptions.Panic did have a misstep for me in Dodge Mason and his family. I could have used more description ...

“Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a dead-end town of 12,000 people in the middle of nowhere: because it was summer, and there was nothing else to do. Heather never thought she would compete in Panic, a legendary game played by graduating seniors, where the stakes are high and the payoff i...

While I thought the premise was very plausible, the pacing was atrocious and the characters were flat. I wanted more of Panic and less filler!The romantic relationships were quite refreshing, particularly compared to what I've come to expect from YA contemporary, realistic fiction (well, most YA, re...

I was originally only going to give this book 2 and 1/2 stars, but I decided to give it a chance and it really surprised me. Mostly because I also read Lauren Oliver's Delirium and I ended up not liking it as well as I did the movie adaptation of it, so I decided not to pursue reading the entire tri...

I'm familiar with Lauren Oliver's style of writing and I admit to being a huge fan of Before I Fall and a fan of the Delirium series so I already knew that her writing is beautiful and I had high hopes for Panic. The characters are the main reason that this book was so good. They're realistic and a...

This fast-paced teen read by Oliver had an interesting premise. The game "panic" was a game played by graduating seniors in hopes of winning the grand prize, a huge sum of money that could be life-changing for the winner. Panic is a game made up of a series of challenges, many of which test the part...

Some books just don't grab you. There's nothing necessarily wrong with them, but they just don't grab you. For me, this was one of those books. I would blame it on the writing style, but I've read books from this author before and really liked them, so I credit my dislike of this book to other facto...

Nobody believed that Panic would stop, of course. The game must go on. The game always went on. I have read all of Lauren Oliver's previous work and enjoyed them so when this book came out I knew I was going to add it to my tbr pile. This book mainly follows two teenagers (Heather and Dodge) living...
