SHATTER ME PROTAGONIST FREE

Like with Patrick Ness's The Knife of Never Letting Go, Mafi knows the rules of writing and breaks them in delightful ways. The Reestablishment promised hope, but delivered a totalitarian regime in which a few live in luxury while the rest suffer. Mafi's dystopic world is horrific, one in which people have given up what freedoms remained to them after the plants and animals became so polluted that eating them meant poisoning themselves. When she comes under the power of the clearly insane Warner, who wants to use her ability to torture and kill those who defy the Reestablishment, the new global world order, she has to make some tough decisions. Juliette is surprisingly strong for a woman who's close to losing her sanity due to this power she cannot control. This is a book about power, control and sanity. Her hellish life changes when she's given a cellmate, a boy named Adam who looks familiar. Three years ago she forgot this truth and had an accident that still haunts her and sent her to solitary confinement at an insane asylum. Seventeen year old Juliette can't touch people without causing them pain and ultimately killing them.

Pros: brilliant writing, sympathetic protagonist, open to sequels, very fast read, hard to put downĬons: some plot twists depended on remarkably good luck/coincidence, ending implies Juliette made a choice she didn't actually make (yet)įor Parents: some sexual content (kissing +, but no actual sex), some language, some violence Science Fiction and Fantasy Books Coming in Januar.
