Unravel Me Shatter Me Tahereh Mafi Books

This is the honestly the hardest review I have written. I had no words when I finished reading except for "All of the stars!" because really, this book deserves way more than that measly five. I actually had to sleep on it, to come down from the high it gave me, so that I could even form a coherent thought. Now I'm here, and I'm telling you all that Unravel Me is the best book of the year so far. At least for me. I don't even care that I'm not really a fan of the flowery writing. In fact, I think it feels kind of out of place amongst all of the action and ass kicking. But Tahereh Mafi is some kind of storytelling genius. I could not get enough of this.

Unravel Me had me feeling way too many feelings. I cannot even identify them all, but one that I am sure of is giddiness. I could just feel myself getting more and more giddy the more pages I turned. I was getting light headed from anticipation, and I probably could have passed out at any time. That might be a really unhealthy reaction to have to a book, but I couldn't control it. I received this book on a Tuesday, and read it straight through the very next day. I only took breaks to update my GoodReads and Twitter statuses. And to eat a brownie, which gave me tummy ache that I'm choosing to interpret as "Serves you right for putting the book down!"

Juliette starts out as a timid little mouse with rabies. You're afraid she'll bite you, but you don't really think she will. Then she morphs into a jaguar with rabies, and you nearly pee your pants. Now she wants to bite you and she probably will, but you can't turn away from her because she's just so majestic. She's scary. Juliette is so afraid of being seen as a monster and hurting someone, but she is downright terrifying in Unravel Me. I also feel like she's quite unstable. That makes me a little happy because Warner is quite unstable, and then they can be unstable together, and everyone knows that two negatives make a positive. At least if you multiple them, but whatever. Juliette is bad ass, but I think she owes that to Kenji.

I was always oddly suspicious of Kenji, but now I adore him! He's so full of himself and hilarious. He stole nearly every scene that he's in. But he's not only the jokester. He's a great support for Juliette while she's in emo mode. He essentially tells her to stop crying and put on her big girl panties. He's not her babysitter. Juliette needs to take control of her powers before she kills someone, and Kenji knows all to well what her powers can do to a person.

Everything about this book is better than Shatter Me. Shatter Me does not even compare. I would say that Unravel Me is 62 times better than its predecessor, which I gave 4 stars to, so that means Unravel Me really gets 248 stars. It's that simple. My biggest issue with the first book was quickly resolved in this one, and it made me super happy! Well, it made me kind of sad for Juliette and Adam, but I was glad that things weren't that simple. I may not be on Adam's team, but I still like him. I actually really enjoyed the romance, but I was really just waiting for Warner to show up...

CHAPTER 62!!! Warner doesn't just magically appear that far in. He's around much earlier than that making my heart flutter. But holy crap Chapter 62. Unravel Me was fantastic before I got that far. The rating in my head was hovering around 4.5 and 5 stars already, but that chapter just pushed it over the edge. I was ecstatic to get so much Warner. My feelings were floating on a warm Spring breeze beneath a rainbow and a unicorn flew by, then a tornado hit and shredded my feelings, deposited them in an abandoned field where they were promptly set on fire and turned to ash, then I inhaled the ash and couldn't breathe. Then I died a little. That's a pretty accurate description. There's one quote that I really want to share, but it's like a giant spoiler monster! It's just so amazing! But I won't, because you all need to go read it for yourself! It's the bottom paragraph on page 394 of the US Hardback for those curious.

I might be rambling, but I beyond loved Unravel Me. When I finished I felt like sobbing. It's not that the ending was particularly sad. I just didn't want it to be over, and I was on emotional overload. I'm not even eager for the next book, because I'm still stuck in the pages of this one.

Unravel Me Shatter Me Tahereh Mafi Books Reviews

I didnt know where to start when reviewing this book. It still has beautiful imagery in the writing. The connections made between sentences feel very much like gambled thoughts that flow together from one concept to the next before reaching a completely different conclusion. Jumbled ramblings that ultimately make sense. And despite being jumbled, they’re poetic and smart. They make you think and change your perceptions. So it was definitely and interesting read.

The problem that I had with this one verses the last, is that I find the main character to be weak. It was understandable in the last book. She just escaped from one cell to find herself in another with a madman. Spent almost a year in isolation and she was tired and hungry and weak and abused. Now she’s out. And she seems to flip from one way of thinking to one entirely different. Completely undecided on how she feels about any one thing, whether it be her love interest or the way she feels about the rain. She seems more lost in this book then she did in the last.

The love interest thing is super frustrating. I’m fairly certain she doesn’t like ether of them. Just likes the contact of another human being. Whichever boy in directly in front of her, telling her that she’s perfect, is the one that she loves. She been so starved for attention that she allows even the smallest affections to sway her. She does make the connection that she needs to be stronger, but I don’t think it was something she took seriously.

Despite my objections to the main characters state of mind, it was still a good read. It kept my interest enough that I happily finished the book. I’m undecided on whether I care enough to finish the series. Which is sad, since I have invested in reading 2 out of the 3 books already.
3.5 Stars. I didn’t like this book as much as the first one, but having read the third book I can definitely say it’s worth reading Unravel Me to finish the series. This story takes a different turn in this book. Shatter Me felt more dystopia, this book felt more like X-men, which was cool, just very different. We see all of the characters growing up in this book. They take on new responsibilities, especially Juliette. Some characters grow closer while others grow apart.

Though Juliette’s relationships were a huge part of the plot in this book, like the first, Unravel Me focused a little more on the world that Juliette lives in and how Juliette can affect that world and help people. Still though, the heart of this story was with it’s characters.

I started to really love Kenji in this book, but he also seriously frustrated me when he complained about Juliette and Adam’s relationship. I get that Adam and Juliet were dramatic at times, but I felt like Kenji lost sight of how important Adam was to her. He acted like she was just any other girl with a boyfriend. But, that’s not what Adam was to her. For Juliette, losing Adam mean losing the ability to touch another human being. It meant being deprived of an entire aspect of love and affection. I just got annoyed with Kenji trivializing that. But, we also see Kenji and Juliette spending more time together in this book and the beginning of a great friendship starts to develop.

Spoiler Juliette’s breakup with Adam was totally heartbreaking, and completely real. I liked that they tried to make it work, but things just kind of fell apart around them. As the book went on I kept wanting for them to get back together, but there was this moment when it just felt like too much time had passed. They’d missed their chance, and that was awful, but from that point on it just felt like it wouldn’t be the same if they got back together. I just loved how real it was.

The romance that starts to bloom between Warren and Juliet threw me at first. I enjoyed seeing another side of Warren’s personality, but I really hated him in the first book, so I didn’t like the idea of them being together. However, as the story went on he started to win me over. I also enjoyed that his character didn’t change too easily or too quickly. Spoiler And, their almost-sex scene at the end was totally hot.

The end of this book left me rethinking who these characters were. Juliette is figuring out who she is and thrown into a social world for the first time. She grows up a lot. And, both Adam and Warner surprised me. I was left thinking that neither one of them were exactly who I thought they were in the first book.
This is the honestly the hardest review I have written. I had no words when I finished reading except for "All of the stars!" because really, this book deserves way more than that measly five.
