Book Review: Destroy me

A very short book, IMO. It is written from Warner's POV, and it gives us a little more insight about him than Shatter me. It seems like quite a few people got won over by him after reading this book, but I think it is still too early to decide. I want to see Adam's POV too! To summarise, everyone has a rotten childhood, including Warner, even though he has a dad who is in control of the Reestablishment. The book also portrays Warner in a more positive light than Shatter me. He isn't the cold and cruel guy that Juliette and Adam think he is. Ultimately, he is as helpless as anyone else out there. I would like to know how come he is so obsessed about Juliette though. Destroy me did not really answer that question. >.< Okays.. On to the quest to find Unravel me~~

Book Review: Shatter me

The first of a trilogy, Shatter me is a YA fiction book that has a dystopian plot. Personally, I love dystopian plots, and looking at the hit rates of the movies that came out recently, I think many people do too. The book started off with the thoughts of Juliette Ferrars, and then it switched from a first person view to third person view. I love the way how it started, (it's like the starting of a film) and then progressively, you get to understand the world more and more. The part that I don't like about it is that the description of the world that she was in was too little, and there wasn't much depth to it. More was focused on the feelings of Juliette, and it makes the other characters and other bits of the plot very flat. Despite this, I enjoyed the book a lot, and I can't wait to read the rest of the series. Apparently, 20th Century Fox has purchased the filming rights according to Wiki! It may be just like the hunger games! Where I read the books years befo
