Review
Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi is one of my new favourite books! It's such an amazing story and great characters.
The story is about Juliette and Adam. Nobody can touch Juliette because her touch is lethal. Until Adam. Adam... *fangirling* A guy with beautiful blue eyes, a divine and muscular body of 1m85 and sleeves. (My male crush)
Juliette lives in an institution for already 265 days, and suddenly she gets a roommate, Adam. After a while she gets taken out of the institution along with Adam to be used as a weapon by Warner. And that’s the one thing she doesn’t want to be.
Juliette is an amazing character! I love her. She is determined and madly in love with Adam. It is so lovely to read in her perspective.
Adam ... Wow! He’s the guy every girl wants! He had noticed Juliette when they were little and went to school together. And from then, she was the only thing he could think of. When Juliette was suddenly gone, he looked everywhere for her and he found her. Who doesn’t love Adam?!
And then you have Warner... He's a real bastard. Everything revolves around him, like he’s the only one who’s important. He wants Juliette to use her gift as a weapon. He didn’t even bother to put her at ease. He gave her a food and clothing, but I had the feeling that he didn’t really wanted to do it for her, only for her gift. In the end, it appears that he would do anything for her, but still, I don’t like him.
Shatter Me is a great dystopian and I cannot wait to read the sequel!
