Lauren Oliver captivated readers with her achingly beautiful first novel, BEFORE I FALL. She followed that up with the compellingly addictive DELIRIUM trilogy and her new novel, PANIC, in which she explores the true meaning of hope and fear. Lauren's first adult novel, ROOMS, published in September 2014 to huge critical acclaim. She is also the author of two novels for young readers, LIESL & PO and THE SPINDLERS, delightful, scary and magical novels that are certain to become modern classics of children's writing.
