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.

In this exhilarating sequel to Shatter Me, Juliette has to make life-changing decisions between what she wants and what she thinks is right. Decisions that might involve choosing between her heart—and Adam's life.

Review: This book is beyond amazing! If you enjoyed Shatter Me you MUST pick this book up! So much happened!!! So many mind blowing things were revealed!!! Its gonna be so hard to write this review without revealing the massive spoilers!!!! But I'll try (and still try to do the book justice)!So maybe I'll start with something not spoilery at all? Kenji!!!! This guy is pretty awesome! Totally crushing on him after reading this!!! He was actually really cool in this book. Ok, first of all, how cool is his gift to be invisible??? I just love that so much! And it definitely comes in handy in this book! Second, Kenji was seriously being an awesome friend in this book! He was there for Juliette in times when she felt all alone, especially dealing with this thing with Adam. He knew when to be serious with her and just listen, but he also knew when to crack a joke to try and cheer her up as well. I was very happy that we got to see a lot of Kenji in this book! Especially since we got to see him being his true self. 

Adam... Hmm... I still love Adam and I shall let everyone know. Unlike a bunch of people who flipped teams in this book I am still firmly on TEAM ADAM!!!! I definitely felt for him throughout the book. He really struggled. He felt like he didn't belong at Omega Point because it really didn't look like he had a gift. So this isn't as spoilery I'll let it out. Adam does have a gift. He just didn't realize it! His gift is kinda hard to explain though so I'll let you guys find out about it in the book. :P But his gift does pertain to why he can touch Juliette. His gift is also part of the reason why they have some problems in this book. :( I was also shocked at the revelation that was made about Adam and his father and his family. I am in no way letting this one out of the bag but it is SHOCKING!!! I promise! Adam... Man... He has a hard to dealing with this. And I don't blame him. But like I said, I still love him anyways. TEAM ADAM!!! :D

Juliette. Girl, you need to get a hold of your gift! She really struggled getting a grip on her gift and being able to control it but hey, there is one instance in this book where I didn't want her to control it. But for good reason. I felt kinda bad for Juliette when it came to Adam because not only was he dealing with stuff but so was she, and it was hard for both of them to deal. Especially since one of those issues dealt directly with their relationship. :( I also felt bad for her since Warner ended up at Omega Point for a bit as a hostage (you hear that right), and also managed to turn her life upside down while he was there. UGH! I STILL DON'T LIKE WARNER!!! NOT A FAN! Sorry people. Still not jumping teams. I was so disappointed to find out about him having a gift (yeah, he has one too), still not that big of a shocker. I was even more disappointed though at what happened between Warner and Juliette. I don't like him! He may be a lot more nicer in this book and I may not dislike him 100% but I still don't want him with Juliette. Though this particular scene will make all you Warner fans ecstatic! And the ending... THE ENDING!!!! I have very mixed feelings on this so I will just not share my thoughts on it. But I promise, it is a fantastic way to end the book! 

5 Stars!
