honestly unfollow me if you think warnette are whiney and weak in this book. Once you realize that, NOTHING juliette does comes off as whiney.
i think the best line to describe this book is that juliette is dealing with "the frustration of having so much power, so much power and feeling so utterly, completely powerless" (420-421). warnette angst in this is sSO OOOO GOOD (view spoiler)
#We relive it images revive painful series
my new favorite scene in the entire series is drunk juliette scene At this point, half of my review is just Shatter Me 5 predictions, so i'll try and only give my updated thoughts lmao: Like I expected, the more it sinks in and feels like a real book, the better it gets. UMMMM STILL PERFECT I'M SORRY!!!! I still have some issues mainly dealing with plot hole issues that'll probably get sorted out in later books (view spoiler), but really any previous problems I had with characterization or pacing or descriptions fell away during this reread. (also t is literally a goddess so why ya'll worried she won't do these characters right) (also t confirmed warner and juliette will survive the series) (btw warnette didn't break up they're both just dramatic as hell so everyone pls rest) I can't wait to find out more about her parents. I can't wait to see who narrates the next novella. This story truly grasped characters I loved and somehow helped them grow yet experience new conflicts that are all realistic and complex and natural. At this point, yeah it's not gonna be rainbows and butterflies during the year we wait for book 5, but I feel so much more eagerness than terror or dread. And I have so much faith that the sad or questionable things that happen in this are meaningful and will be expanded upon in the next books. There's not much I need to add about how much I adore this story. thanks for attending my tedtalk.Īfter reading this for a third time and attending Tahereh's instagram livestream q&a, things just kinda settled into place. I really have no updated review for this other than GODDAMN IT, IT STILL ENDED THE SAME WAY AND I NEED ANSWERS. loved it as always even though i'm so confused and stressed i could cry but the things i enjoyed most about this reread was seeing warner's self-awareness develop and the distinction between different kinds of power and resilience, specifically how juliette has to compartmentalize and separately hone her physical strength and mental strength. im thirty times more confused than i was about this book's ending. I reread this spontaneously in preparation for shadow me and that shit HURTED. It was difficult to annotate because there's a new POV and new characters who i love a lot, so i definitely had a field day putting hearts in the margins. I reread this to annotate it before Defy Me came out and still loved it. im thirty times more confused than i wa TW: panic attacks, transphobia, mentions of racism, gun violence March 2019 i reread this spontaneously in preparation for shadow me and that shit HURTED.
