Welcome to the celebration of my favorite books of this year.
Each day, I will be featuring my favorite book and author of each month.
And at the end of this celebration you'll have the chance to win a
hardback copy of a book by one of my favorite authors.
March was the month of my birthday. And even though I got some awesome books for my birthday, the most awesome of those was Shatter me. I read the book (kindle) on January, but was still March when I get the paperback copy of it. And I coudn't help but keep that awesome cover in the front of my shelf.
I re-read Shatter me twice that month and Tahereh become my favorite author of that month.
Tahereh Mafi is a girl. She’s 24. She was born the youngest child with
four older brothers in a small city somewhere in Connecticut, and
currently resides in Orange County, California. She graduated from a
tiny liberal arts college two miles from the shores of Laguna Beach, has
varying levels of competency in eight different languages, and spent a
semester abroad in Barcelona, Spain, where she had the opportunity to
study Spanish literature in its native form.
Mafi has traveled all over the world, lived on both sides of the United States, and even spent some years writing really bad poetry. When unable to find a book, she can be found reading candy wrappers, coupons, and old receipts.

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.
**********
Destroy me
Back at the base and recovering from his near-fatal wound, Warner must do everything in his power to keep his soldiers in check and suppress any mention of a rebellion in the sector. Still as obsessed with Juliette as ever, his first priority is to find her, bring her back, and dispose of Adam and Kenji, the two traitors who helped her escape. But when Warner’s father, The Supreme Commander of The Reestablishment, arrives to correct his son’s mistakes, it’s clear that he has much different plans for Juliette. Plans Warner simply cannot allow.
**********
Unravel me
tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
it's almost
time for war.
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.
