Shatter Me

I should not have tortured myself with this abomination. It started out well for like two pages, and after that I was like...what?! Can't believe this is rated a 4.1 here.

Why does the protagonist repeat a single word three three three times? And sometimes more. Even if it's in her head, it sounds so weird. The sentence formation is so bad, it had me snorting throughout the book.

“My jaw hangs from my shoelace”. Does it, seriously? That paints a weird image in my mind, how can I not laugh? How do you describe eyes: “2 buckets of river water at midnight”. Dang! I think I'll re-read this whenever I need a good laugh. “A small smile the size of Jupiter”... That would be one hell of a smile to look at. What is wrong with all the sentences?

Also, I kept getting annoyed by the fact that she keeps thinking about killing Warner, but refuses to touch him when he asks. Oh god! Just do it, kill him and put him and everybody else out of misery. This was before we discover the ‘immune to her powers' crap.

And what was with all the numbers? The way she recited the numbers, I thought we were gonna get a mathematician at some point in the story.

I was trying to see what kind of a YA it would turn out to be but hey, I didn't expect this to become X-Men. What's professor X doing here? Oh god, is that you Rouge? Professor X needs a bit more practice and to lose his hair, and he might reach the mind-reading level soon. Superhero suit? Ugh, really man. What's next: X-Men First Class?
