it's almost
time for war.
Juliette has escaped to Omega Point. It is a place for people like her—people with gifts—and it is also the headquarters of the rebel resistance.
She's finally free from The Reestablishment, free from their plan to use her as a weapon, and free to love Adam. But Juliette will never be free from her lethal touch.
Or from Warner, who wants Juliette more than she ever thought possible.
In this exhilarating sequel to Shatter Me, Juliette has to make life-changing decisions between what she wants and what she thinks is right. Decisions that might involve choosing between her heart—and Adam's life. (Goodreads)
I'm attempting to get in a couple of more books before the year ends :) And I totally adore this series! Mafi's writing is just, gah, so amazing. It's definitely different, but I love the texture of it, like it's possible to scoop up her words and sift them through your fingers while reading. It brings Juliette to life so well. The bulk of this book was mainly about Juliette finding her inner strength, which at times felt a touch slow, but then a twist rounded out the action and I found myself still stuck within the pages. Also, sheesh, it's rare for me to feel as bad for a character as I do for Juliette. She's definitely gotten a rough deal. But she's trying to cope, and it's no wonder she has trouble after all she's been through. Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if she'd been rocking in a corner, completely out of her mind after everything that's happened. Anyhow, I won't go into too much more detail so as to not spoil things, but this was definitely a fun read and I can't wait for the last book in the series!
Have you read any of these? Thoughts?
I haven't gotten on the bandwagon yet with these books, tho I've heard nothing but good things! But I'm really intrigued by Tera & her husband, Ransom Riggs. Two great writers under one roof-I wonder if they give each other critiques? Or maybe that would end badly, lol!
ReplyDeleteThat has to be an interesting house for awesome discussions!! They both seem like such great people I'd totally love to get coffee with :)
DeleteI love how you're getting all your reading in after a crazy, hectic month! Sit back, relax and enjoy :-)
ReplyDeleteI totally am! It's so needed, it's awesome :)
DeleteHaven't read either of these yet, but they're on my list. Got a couple of bookstore gift cards for Christmas, so I may have to pick up Shatter Me.
ReplyDeleteI've seen Shatter Me on sale a few places--definitely a good one to pick up :)
