Juliette has escaped to Omega Point. It is a place for people like her—people with gifts—and it is also the headquarters of the rebel resistance.

She's finally free from The Reestablishment, free from their plan to use her as a weapon, and free to love Adam. But Juliette will never be free from her lethal touch.

Or from Warner, who wants Juliette more than she ever thought possible.

In this exhilarating sequel to Shatter Me, Juliette has to make life-changing decisions between what she wants and what she thinks is right. Decisions that might involve choosing between her heart—and Adam's life.(from Harper Teen)


Oh Tahereh Mafi, you clever person you!! She’s got to be such a smart and hilarious person to be able to create something so good like Unravel Me. So heartbreaking. And she just has to have a great sense of humor to bring a character like Kenji to life in the pages of Unravel Me.

Kenji was almost nonexistent for me in Shatter Me, but he takes the cake in this one. He is probably the character I loved the most in this book, he’s honest to the core, charismatic and so freaking hilarious. He had me laughing out loud with his dialogue. I loved that he was the voice of reason in this novel and wasn’t afraid  to tell it like it is and put Juliette in her place when she started throwing one of her many pity parties throughout the book.

Now about Adam, *sigh* I was in the minority with the first book, I didn’t love him in Shatter Me, I was always much more intrigued by Warner. In Unravel Me though, Adam started to grow on me, I felt like we were getting to know a lot more about him and I actually felt something for the guy, I definitely didn’t want anything to happen to him, so I might be a little torn now. I just liked that we get a whole lot of both of the guys in this one, and we get to know both very deeply, their secrets, feelings and sooo much more. ;-)

Now Warner, oh WARNER… I knew he was intriguing from the beginning for a reason, and I’m glad that we get to know him really well in Unravel Me. He’s got his reasons for being the way he is and how can anyone hate him after this one? I LOVE him!!! Yes I do, and even though Adam got on my radar in this novel Warner’s still in the lead. And you know that chapter 62 everyone’s been talking about? Well, they weren’t kidding, is the best thing EVER!! This book is intense! It had me toe-curling unexpectedly and involuntarily, my eyes were dry from not wanting to blink. It was just a hold-your-breath-amazingness type of book. I seriously did not exhale until I would turn the page to the next chapter.

Unravel Me is definitely going down as one of my favorite books of this year. This was not those type of middle books in the series where nothing happens, sooo much goes on in this one and we get to find out so many new things and “unraveling” secrets that are quite shocking. Craziness, lots of action and new awesome super powers made Unravel Me a fast-paced and fabulous sequel you don’t want to miss. You won’t be able to think about anything else after you finish it.

  3. Every single review I've read so far has mentioned how Kenji is stealing the show. I'm so glad everyone else is noticing how awesome he is because I LOVED him in Shatter Me (to be honest, he was my favorite part of the book) and I was sad when no one else seemed to feel the same way. Now Kenji is getting the recognition he deserves. YESH! Great review. I am DYING to get my hands on this book. :D

  5. I really love this book.It's so amazing.
    I always love Warner. His name it's so cool.
    I never fell a real thing about Juliette and Adam, it's more about fascination;it's not a real love.

    And Warner really loves Juliette and when he appears it's so intense and deep.
    They will end together because:1-Their conection power,2-Warner shows his real inside,3-He salve her life,4-HE LOVES HER SO STRONGG.
    I just want the book 3 so badly.
    omgggggg
