It's Wednesday, and here at Sparkles and Lightning, you know what that means! Another day full of gushing over books we all want, thanks to Jill at Breaking the Spine!
So, I will present to you my choice for this week!
I'm actually more excited for Destroy Me, but as that is a novella, I won't use it for my WoW. I'll just put in it a footnote, like here :) Be honest, ladies (oh, and some gentlemen): who doesn't want to read from the sexy Warner's POV?
Lovelovelove,
So, I will present to you my choice for this week!
Unravel Me
Tahereh Mafi
(No blurb yet. The one you see here is for Shatter Me.)
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.
In this electrifying debut, Tahereh Mafi presents a world as riveting asThe Hunger Games and a superhero story as thrilling as The X-Men. Full of pulse-pounding romance, intoxicating villainy, and high-stakes choices,Shatter Me is a fresh and original dystopian novel—with a paranormal twist—that will leave readers anxiously awaiting its sequel.I freely admit that I had some pretty violent feelings about certain aspects of Shatter Me, but I still have high hopes for this one and desperately want it. I love Tahereh, so I'm definitely willing to give her another chance.
