Welcome to Litsy!

no straight man wears a chain link

These books are getting so much better! This one was a wild ride. Juliet finally finds out about her past and what really happened to her. She also finds out how destructive her powers can really be. #SeriesLove2024 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView

“Juliette Ferrars thought she‘d won. She took over Sector 45, was named the new Supreme Commander of North America, and now has Warner by her side. But when tragedy strikes, she must confront the darkness that dwells both around and inside her. Who will she become in the face of adversity? Will she be able to control the power she wields, and use it for good?”

5⭐ phenomenal. That's it. Just phenomenal.

Oh. My. Gosh. This series just keeps getting better. I loved that we got Aaron Warners perspective in this book, it was much needed to understand everything that was going on in this story. I‘m finally starting to respect and love Juliette, she‘s growing on me. I just can‘t get enough of Shatter Me.

Juliette has accomplished & become the leader of Sector 45. However, not all of the foreign countries are happy about it. They don‘t trust her. They all arrive to meet her, but it all goes south.

This was a good read. I liked the introduction of the new characters. I liked listening to Kenji‘s POV because he‘s my favorite character. The ending was also a good segue into the next book.

Wowza! I had no idea where author would take the series after book 3, but I was not disappointed! Picking up 6 months after the third book this one had tons of twists and turns I did not see coming! Love that Mafi is continuing the story line and we get to see the aftermath. On to the next. #seriesread2022

Hmmmm….

Book 4 in the shatter me series and I chose to read this one for the publishing year 2018. I inhaled this one! And the cliffhanger ending??? OMG! So yeah I‘m off to get the rest of the series tomorrow. #19822022 @Librarybelle

I like it when the Arabic language is accurate in books and movies, but I couldn‘t help but laugh when I read this 😂. If I‘m not mistaken there‘s a mix of Syrian and Egyptian dialects in this and the character is supposed to be Iraqi?

I‘m cautiously starting to like Haider. The not eating meat bit certainly earns him brownie points 😂.
I actually have a friend named Haidar and he looks a lot like the description of this Haider‘s appearance so I‘ll just be imagining my friend while reading his scenes 🤷🏻‍♀️.

I‘ve really enjoyed this whole series so far, the characters have developed really well and I feel really invested in their story.

This one wasn‘t very fast paced until the middle where everything went off the deep end when Juliette gets unexpected visitors from the other supreme leaders.

Her relationship with Warner is intense and rocky but so so addictive! Can‘t wait to read the next!

#BOOKSPINBINGO.Finally managed to complete a row for November. RESTORE ME was 🌟🌟🌟.The ending was unpredictable although as I ve been saying from the beginning, this series is very average and the story and plot unoriginal and cliched. However, i d like to read the next 2 books too as this one ended with a cliffhanger. I think I have finally started liking Warner, romance is the central theme and the rests just props. @TheAromaofBooks

How does one person write so well? I don‘t know, but she‘s killing it! Without giving too much away there is growing pains with a new position, we get more into several characters pasts, and someone has a sister? What?! On to the next one.

This book had a lot going on. Juliettes past was so confusing to me. I‘m glad I chose to continue this series. 8/10

Just a late night head cannon I thought about while trying to wind down. What do you all think?

I flew through this book! I know that this was not a part of the original trilogy and it shows- Mafi seems a little confused about where this is going. She had the opportunity here to increase the scope of Juliette‘s world, which she didn‘t take. However, I enjoyed the drama appreciate that Mafi‘s writing seems to be getting better with each book. #bookishbox

This book has taken the series in a weird direction. Characters have taken steps back or are in recognizable. And I‘m not sure I‘m loving the multiple POVs all of a sudden.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The twist at the ending was crazy and something I was not suspecting. Restore Me takes place a few weeks after Ignite Me and focuses on Juliette and Warner‘s point of views. They are dealing with the repercussions of what happened at the end of Ignite Me and trying to navigate through new roles in their lives. There are secrets and betrayals in this book. I docked a star because it was slow.

Juliette is the supreme commander of North America. But is she really? So many secrets are being kept from her. What will she do when she finds out the truth. I didn‘t see the curve ball comes at the end of the book either!

This is my 6th completed book in the #24b4monday readathon!

🌟🌟🌟🌟

I enjoyed the book but at the same time it felt as if nothing really happened. I would say (and hope) it was intended as a preparation for what comes next. The ending was great and made me want to read the next instalment in this series. The depth of the feelings of the main characters remains well throught through even if somewhat annoying at times.

Loneliness is a bitter, wretched companion.
Sometimes it just won't let go.

I‘m not sure how this series keeps getting better, but it does. It really does.

I am just loving this series and this volume is maybe my favorite... well next to the first book, Shatter Me. two more to books to go...

Just moved in, I had to put my books on my shelves really quickly and now it's a mess. Can't wait to organise all that ! #shelfie #bookshelf #books

This was an interesting continuation of the series. Juliette is now the Supreme commander of North America, or is she? Many secrets are revealed and things are not what they seem.

I plan to start this on my lunch hour. I was really looking forward to this and I bought it when it first came out.....BUT......I was so nervous to read it that I didn‘t start it. Lol I just really like the series and I didn‘t what to be disappointed. Does anyone get like that about a certain book series?

#MarchWrapUp
23 books this month! The last one I read was the tagged book 'Restore Me' - another excellent quick YA read and #4 in the Shatter Me series.

This is the best book atm, it was so interesting and the plot was so freaking good! I loved Warner's pov, and though I didn't like Juliette so much in this book, she is now stronger than ever. I am dying to read Defy me because those final pages were mindblowing and I need to know more! What have you done, Tahere!!! I need Warner to be happy, please and thank you.

Ps: my cat says hi 😙

When you‘ve been dying to read the next book in the series, but have to wait... 😢 ughhh

I am reading two books but I started a new one because why not xd

📚 Restore Me (the cover more specifically).
🎥 Not a movie but a Tom & Jerry episode where everything is frozen and they start skating and pranking each other.

Okay so I hated the first half of this book. I never like it when a book has to undo the happily ever after from the previous book to continue the plot, even when I know it is necessary. Once that was over with though I really liked the direction this story took. I also like the new direction Juliette‘s powers are starting to take. Also, THAT ENDING WAS INSANE OMG WHAT!?!?!!?!? Like, I‘d tell people to read this book purely for the ending.

How did you guys find Restore me ?? Personally I didn't really enjoy it at all. I think i might give this book 2.5 stars. Why?
I will write it in the comments ❤

I loved the Shatter Me trilogy when I read it years ago, but I‘m wondering if it was a right time/right place kind of experience, because I did not love this. Nothing really happened except emotionnnnnns. I still do find Warner pretty swoony though. 😍

Also used Bookly for the first time in a while and am a little depressed at how little time I read this week 😞

Ah! Blew through this book in just a couple of days. So good! When is started this series it was right after this one came out because everyone said it was a trilogy but the author wanted to write more. It's been on my list for... A couple years but that extra attention made me pick it up and I'm so glad I did! And so unhappy cause now I have to wait with everyone until the next one!

Wow! I forgot how much I liked this series and its characters, especially Warner.😍 The ending was a bit cruel, but now I'm definitely looking forward to the next installment. Awesome read while camping. I'm literally writing this while crossing the New Brunswick/Quebec border.😁 #ByeNewBrunswick #BookBoyfriend

Sitting around the campfire talking about books with the hubby and kids.❤️ #Camping #NewBrunswick

Roadtrippin'! #Roadtrip

Popped a disc in my back this week but it luckily happened a few days before my two-week vacation started. So now I can rest and read as much as I want, starting with these. Half of them are books I started and need to finish 🤭😅 #tbr

Noooooo!!!! ????This can't end like this! This was the most nerve wracking book of the series. Couple of times I closed the book and said "holy shit" Tahereh Mafi has outdone her self with this book. But this cliffhanger I was left with!!!! I need to know what happens next! Omg is it 2019 yet? I need the next book. Def a must read!!
