Book Cover of 1.5 |
So tell me, you've read Shatter Me right? Why else would you be looking at the 1.5 book review?
And now, I am assuming you know Warner (the hot, evil-ish character who has an obsession with Juliette) and how at the end of Shatter Me,
SPOILERS
Juliette shoots him with his own gun to be able to run- again- and we are able to see into his mind from that point on.
Well here is what I though about this short story.
I just love how Tahereh writes, like seriously. I don't pay much attention to the writings but this is just simply too beautiful to not comment on. And I think I said this on the Shatter Me review as well, but I mean come on! You know it's true. To be in Warner's mind is so bizarre. It's so different from Juliette's that it was somewhat disorienting but I got used to it. And I was happy to be inside his head. Though his head is not somewhere happy to be.
I was able to see his real feelings, and his real intentions. And though it was slightly depressing, it also managed to creat that empathy I needed and I kinda new he deserved as a character.
Ok, so Warner just got shot and almost died and his father
In this book, my respect for Warner grows a lot. And I was glad he found Juliette's notebook as well. I mean, I ship Adam and Juliette, but I can't get over how strong (though misdirected) his feelings are for her. And I understand him perfectly. And I know he's wrong in wanting her because she suffered the same as him.
But I still have to finish the series so I guess it's ok for now. I should really conclude instead of just babbling on so basically: If you enjoyed Shatter Me and have time to spare, read Destroy Me. It'll be a quick but excellent read and it'll help you understand things so much more.
It really is a good book.
