Me: Destroy Me and Fracture Me (Shatter Me) : Mafi Unite Me: Destroy Me and Fracture Me (Shatter Me) : Mafi

Shatter Me had me rooting so wholehearted for Adam & Juliette to escape and find solace in each other, and my heart broke a million times over for both of them in Unravel Me. I never, ever thought that I would waiver in my opinion on Adam and Warner, but Ignite Me brought it all into perspective for both Juliette and the readers. Juliette ultimately chooses the right path, for the right reasons and it's beautiful to watch it all come into focus. This is one love triangle that actually has real substance in the story, something I never thought I'd say:/ The first two books are mediocre, 2 stars for Shatter Me and 3 for Unravel Me. Ignite me is by far the best of the triology, 4 stars. Destroy Me gets 3.5 and Fracture Me gets a measly 1.5 stars because Adam is just so BORING. Okay, so this one surprised me the most out of this entire re-read of the series. I remember thinking that this last book was decent and I had enjoyed it enough but there was something about it this time around that I really liked. There’s a lot of character development in this and with the exception of one person (Adam, because of course it’s him) it’s very well done. It’s about Juliette tapping into her inner strength and finally becoming the person she should’ve been from the jump. Warner’s character development was honestly my favorite of the two of them because he has a lot more emotional growth and moments where we really get to see his character stripped down to it’s most basic level and it was wonderful. The two of them together bring out the best in each other without trying to change compromise who that person is as an individual and I appreciated. They grew on their own but together if that makes any sense and it makes their relationship feel very solid. This was a pretty good ending to the series but I can definitely see how Mafi left it open in the end to write more.Mafi's writing is beyond refreshing and unique. It's something so hard to describe or even put into words, and I know that my review wont do it true justice. In full disclosure, it’s been a really long time since I read the the first batch of Shatter Me books. But the worst thing of all is the fact that abuse is lauded as romantic in these novels. Warner may hurt Juliette and be forgiven for it time and time again all because, beneath his terrible acts, his motives are supposedly based in the fact that he loves her. Nevermind that time and time again his love is portrayed as selfish and only insofar as she benefits him. What a character. I think hes responsible for at least 3 stars of my review. Without him I would not have been able to read on. He is amazing, fanastic, brilliant, perfect… AAAGH, there are no words for him…

Fracture Me (Shatter Me Novella) by Tahereh Mafi | eBook

The Shatter Me series is a YA Fantasy Romance. So let’s dissect that. First, Romance is an important aspect of the plot and it does contain romantic elements. But it’s also YA, or Young Adult, meaning that it’s meant for ages 13 to 17. Mafi is a graduate of University High School, located in Irvine, California. She attended Soka University of America, located not far away in neighbouring Aliso Viejo, and eventually graduated. Also She can speak eight languages (to varying degrees). She studied abroad in Barcelona, Spain, for a semester. This vacation gave her the opportunity to fully immerse herself in the Spanish language. Just because I was told it gets better and because I was promised a strong Female lead (a unicorn amongst books🦄) But this is not surprising since both Acotar and shatter me got the idea from a Turkish novel "Heart Beats"by book 3 we get the feeling that Tahere is bored of J &W cause now she has other important thing to focus on, her POC characters Warner's obsession with Juliette is terrifying. And I haven't even truly scratched the surface yet.

Shatter Me Series by Tahereh Mafi - Goodreads

LMAO. A boring novella about a boring bowl of oatmeal. Yawn. Doesn’t add anything of importance. Just solidifies my hatred for Adam. Buuuuuuuut Adam and Juliette? It's like if Feyre stayed with Tamlin instead of going to Velaris with Rhys in ACOMAF and through ACOWAR. Like, imagine that. It's a sinking ship. This ends the original Shatter Me trilogy, but Mafi wrote three more novels 4 years after the completion of the first trilogy. De woorden van Mafi zijn allemaal raak en de talloze metaforen waarmee ze haar pagina's vult hebben mij geboeid tot het einde. Ze schrijft heel chaotisch, alsof je iemands notitieboekje/onafgewerkte poëziebundel leest. De gevoelens van Juliette en Adam zijn mooi beschreven, maar naar mijn mening zijn ze veel te 'zwak' weergegeven. Daar stoorde ik mij soms wel aan. Adam beschermt Juliette alsof ze niet zelfstandig genoeg is om voor zichzelf op te komen en Juliette huilt om de haverklap. Ik vind dat Juliette meer als een sterke zelfstandige jonge vrouw zou moeten beschreven worden, niet als een breekbare vaas. Het enige dat mij dan wel aanstaat over de softheid van hun romance is hoe hard het in contrast staat met het arrogante gedrag van Warner, de baas in hun kamp van Het Herstel. Altijd als hij een dialoog voerde met Juliette zat ik op het puntje van mijn stoel. Werkelijk prachtig. Kenji is perfect, he provides a great comedic relief. Juliette’s and his relationship was well needed for the story and i appreciate their relationship growing over time.

Elencherò in ordire sparso tutte le cose che non mi sono piaciute (potrebbe essere una lista mooooolto lunga) e poi vediamo se rimane qualcosa di positivo da dire. Breathtaking, wonderful, stunning.... I could use any of those words to describe this series but they would all be understatement. I was looking forward to some insight into Adams mind and heart, but I was disappointed that his book made him seem as empty and boring as Warner thought he was.
