Perfect for fans of Tahereh Mafi's New York Times bestselling Shatter Me trilogy, this book collects her two companion novellas, Fracture Me and Destroy Me, in print for the first time ever. It also features an exclusive look into Juliette's journal and a preview of Ignite Me, the hotly anticipated final novel of the series. Destroy Me tells the events between Shatter Me and Unravel Me from Warner's point of view. Even though Juliette shot him in order to escape, Warner can't stop thinking about her—and he'll do anything to get her back. But when the Supreme Commander of The Reestablishment arrives, he has much different plans for Juliette. Plans Warner cannot allow. Fracture Me is told from Adam's perspective and bridges the gap between Unravel Me and Ignite Me. As the Omega Point rebels prepare to fight the Sector 45 soldiers, Adam's more focused on the safety of Juliette, Kenji, and his brother. The Reestablishment will do anything to crush the resistance . . . including killing everyone Adam cares about. The Shatter Me series is perfect for fans who crave action-packed young adult novels with tantalizing romance like Divergent and The Hunger Games. This captivating story, which combines the best of dystopian and paranormal, was praised as "a thrilling, high-stakes saga of self-discovery and forbidden love" by Ransom Riggs, bestselling author of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

Unite Me was perfect. I was happy that they made it an actual book with both Novellas and Juliette's Journal.
I was very happy to be inside Warner's head. I love him to death and I wanted more. I needed more. I wanted to see how he felt and how he reacted to certain things. I would read the whole series again in his POV. I would love to see how he grew up and how he became the man he is today.
Reading about Warner discovering Juliette's journal and reading it for himself was very liberating. He found out that they aren't so different. That they have both suffered and have been beaten. I just loved after he read a journal entry and said, “Oh God, Juliette.” It was as if he was letting go of a breath he was holding in while reading her journal.
I also really enjoyed seeing how it changed him. He was nicer to Delalieu. You got to see how Delaleiu would react to him changing. Saying thank you? Also, we got to see how his father treated him. How things happened in the book. His paroling around the camp. I just LOVED IT.
Now for ADAMS part. It was interesting to be inside his head. You got to see how he acted and felt around Juliette. It was sort of annoying when he would view her as a delicate flower. Kept saying she shouldn't be doing this because it is too dangerous.
He also didn't care much when she was taken away. You'd think for someone who was so in love and so upset he would care? KENJI WAS MORE UPSET. That was just the straw. I knew he didn't care much anymore. I know he loves James but someone who is in love would at least THINK about saving her.
Overall, wow. Wonderful. I needed more of this series. I would read anything else about this series. Please, Tahereh, make something else. I need more. I am too invested in this series. I would read it again and again.
Marking this so I can acknowledge I read the novellas. Maybe I'll come back to a star reading later.
