Overview
Juliette hasn’t touched anyone in exactly 264 days.
The last time she did, it was an accident, but The Reestablishment locked her up for murder. No one knows why Juliette’s touch is fatal. As long as she doesn’t hurt anyone else, no one really cares. The world is too busy crumbling to pieces to pay attention to a 17-year-old girl. Diseases are destroying the population, food is hard to find, birds don’t fly anymore, and the clouds are the wrong color.
The Reestablishment said their way was the only way to fix things, so they threw Juliette in a cell. Now so many people are dead that the survivors are whispering war– and The Reestablishment has changed its mind. Maybe Juliette is more than a tortured soul stuffed into a poisonous body. Maybe she’s exactly what they need right now.
Juliette has to make a choice: Be a weapon. Or be a warrior.
About Shatter Me
Shatter Me as of late have seen on many blogs as well as reads picked up by dedicated readers. While its dystopian and sort of the type of novel compared to novels out there it also is really unique. Tahareh uses a lot of numbers and description to get her point across. While at times its confusing it's also really interesting to read. In any case easy to enjoy as a good entertainment.
