Short and sweet, here we go...
I gotta admit, this was a tough read for me. I honestly would have skipped it if I hadn't gotten the heads-up from Caryn (Check her out on booksta @iam.caryn!) about how crucial this little novella was to the plot. It explained some things going on behind the scenes toward the end of book 2. Since the series itself is told only from Juliette's POV, this story tapped into Adam's mind and shared what was going on with him in the final chapters of Unravel Me.
1. Characters: I'm not Adam's biggest fan (or his fan at all, to be honest), but I can see the value in reading a few scenes from his POV. Seeing into his mind helped me understand his character and motivation better. It was a little weird to read a Shatter Me installment that wasn't really centered around Juliette, but like I said, it was important to the plot to understand what's going on with different characters.
2. Story: No spoilers here! If you've read books 1 and 2 (and Warner's novella!), be sure to check this one out before moving on to book 3. I'm glad I did.
3. Author's Writing Style: I'm so impressed with Tahereh Mafi! This is the third different character's POV she's written and each were completely unique and distinct from one another. It's crazy. In my opinion, not many authors can pull that off truly well. Which is a shame because I love reading POV changes!
4. Overall Rating: 3/5 Stars. Unfortunately, this is my least favorite installment in the Shatter Me series. Thankfully, it was only 60 pages, and I don't feel like it was a waste of time at all. My issue is just that it followed Adam, and he's my least favorite character.
5. Similar Reading: Don't miss the first two full-length novels and Warner's novella! Check out this series' page on Goodreads and add them all to your tbr shelf!
