He promises to help Juliette master her powers and save their dying world . . . but that's not all he wants with her.
Book Review:
The concluding novel to the Shatter Me trilogy was definitely not a disappointment. When I opened up to the first page, I just wanted to know how it was going to end, but as I continued, I never wanted it to end. I have fallen in love with these characters and this society. Mafi's writing makes you really believe that you have lived through the series with those characters, that they are your friends. I'm very upset that it is over. Every time I finish a series that I have invested so much into, I feel like a lost a part of myself, and I feel like that right now.
The beginning was great but the middle kind of dragged on I thought. I feel like more could have been done in the middle than was. In all reality there were scenes in the middle, that needed to happen, but more often than not, they were just page fillers.
I probably would have given this book a 4.5 but because of how it ends, I'm giving it a 5. The love triangle that has been a main focus since the first book, ended perfectly. Juliette ends up with the right person, in my opinion anyway. He understands her and he put up with a lot while she was trying to figure out her own feelings.

Book Discussion: SPOILERS:
So at the beginning, when Juliette wakes up, I was so scared of how she was going to handle it. I wasn't sure if she would retaliate before Warner could fill her in on what happened or not. At that point, I was mainly terrified for Warner. Thankfully, she listened to him, skeptically. That's when I started to realize how much she liked him. Mafi hinted at Juliette having feelings for Warner in the second book, but I wasn't sure how far that was going to go after he took off from Omega Point.
When Kenji finds she and Warner at the sight of what used to be Omega Point?!!? Did anyone else want to scream and cry at the same time. I was so excited!! Their entire friendship was just so incredible throughout the entire series. They may have annoyed each other to no end sometimes but they were always friends first and last. That was another thing that I really loved about this novel in particular. We see so much more of their friendship than before.
Adam, was an asshole in this novel. I understand that he had a right to be upset. She was falling for his half-brother, but they weren't really together anymore. Juliette kept pushing Adam away because she was scared of hurting him and I felt that their relationship ended a while before she started to like Warner, even as a friend. And she faught her feelings for Warner, for a very long time, because she didn't want to hurt Adam; yet, Adam responded like a completely different person than we had ever seen him be before. His initial reaction, though overly dramatic, I kind of expected, but how he acted afterward made me hate him.
The end... Juliette finally kills Warner's, Adam's father. She finally takes over the Reestablishment. The world can finally go back to normal. But then I got scared again... everyone is dragging themselves out of the Battlefield so Juliette can see them, but Warner is no where to be seen. After everything that it took to get those two together, I was about ready to throw the book, and just then, he climbs up to where she is standing. I about died.
