![]() But once she discovered that this touch that made her feel human, is hurting the person she love, she took a step back. It made her realize that she might be an ordinary person. She knew what touch was for a very short time, and she held on to that knowledge. She found a person who loved her, who could touch her. The turnaround in her life - from a monster who went through hell, bullying and isolation, to a regular person - was fast. She forgot how to live with people, she forgot how to be human. So how can she see herself as someone who isn’t a monster? So what if she found a way out? So what if she got to a point in her life where others actually see her as a human being? She forgot about it. ![]() All her life she was treated like a monster. A cruel life where we find it hard to find ourselves, difficult to cope with, and therefore difficult to deal with ourselves. That she always whining about herself and her troubles, so much so that she forgets that others have issues too. That she thinks only of herself and the chaos called her life. I read a lot of reviews that said Juliette was weak. I know a lot of people don't like Juliette. Even if they are rebels, even if they are soldiers, even if they are just plain poor citizens who still manage to live through terror. And still, people continue to live in it. ![]() ![]() This book, this world - so abandoned, so fucked up. I couldn't write a review for the first two days because I was speechless. Ransom Riggs, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, raved: "A thrilling, high-stakes saga of self-discovery and forbidden love, the Shatter Me series is a must-read for fans of dystopian young-adult literature-or any literature!" Juliette’s world is packed with high-stakes action and tantalizing romance, perfect for fans of the Red Queen series by Victoria Aveyard and the Darkest Minds trilogy by Alexandra Bracken. And perhaps these new allies can help her shed light on the secret behind Adam’s-and Warner’s-immunity to her killer skin. Juliette will finally be able to actively fight against The Reestablishment and try to fix her broken world. She and Adam were able to escape Warner’s clutches and join up with a group of rebels, many of whom have powers of their own. But his mysterious immunity to her deadly power has left her shaken, wondering why her ultimate defense mechanism failed against the person she most needs protection from. It should have taken Juliette a single touch to kill Warner. Maybe it's because I'm 12, I really don't know, but I find that a few is good, but otherwise it takes away some of the adrenaline rush you get from the exciting bits.īut apart from that minor detail, I highly recommend this book to teens who have read and enjoyed things like Divergent and The Hunger Games.The thrilling second installment in New York Times bestselling author Tahereh Mafi’s Shatter Me series. The only thing I didn't particularly like is the amount of 'romantic scenes'. I would've read it at school if my teachers didn't have such good eyesight, but I still managed to finish it in about three days. I loved where it was set (because I generally love dystopian novels) and just the concept of the book was really simple but really affective. The similes and metaphors were perfect for where the book is set, and the way Juliette was voiced was so believable and really brought the character to life. The first thing I want to say about this book, is how beautifully written it is. The Reestablishment has plans to turn her in to a weapon, to use her to hurt and kill the remaining people in the fractured world.
