Shatter Me is the first book of a trilogy, which presents us with a "dystopian world" governed by the Reestablishment. A group that took everything away from the people and forces them to live by their established rules. 
 The story focuses on Juliette, a 17 year old girl, who has special powers. (view spoiler)[Her touch can kill people and she can punsh through metal and stuff like that. (hide spoiler)] 
 In the beginning she is locked in this asylumn and hasn't talked to a single person in over 260 days and now on the day we start reading the book, she is joined by a boy who she remembers from her childhood. 
 First of all the writing style is totally different from what I've read before. In the beginning I had a really hard time with the way Juliette thinks. The writing style really put me off at first but I got more and more comfortable with it as the story progressed. I think now looking back on it, it was actually very unique and true to the mental state Juliette was in at the beginning. It could've been a little less usage of metaphor but I enjoyed the crossed out parts that showed the doubts and questions Juliette also thinks. 
 Still, I think this book has a classic "first-book-problem". The plot felt sometimes too smooth and obstacles were solved very quickly. I thought the ending was a little too convenient for our protaganists and I always waited for something really bad to happen but it actually never did. (Maybe I'm crippled since I read A Song of Ice and Fire. I always assume shit is going to get down) 
 So there was a lot of romance in this book. The plot was focused a lot on romantic / erotic elements. But I didn't mind that at all. 
 I feel the characters were really interesting. 
 Like I already mentioned, I had a hard time in the beginning feeling a connection to Juliette. But my feelings changed very quickly after the half of the book. I think she is a beautiful character and I love that she is still so 
 sincerely and good 
 . She changed a lot throughout the book and I think her change was realistic and amazingly written. 
 Adam is a bae. I instantly felt a connection to him. Maybe it has something to do with it that he reminds me of Four from the "Divergent Series" but still I really liked him a lot. (view spoiler)[His love for Juliette is just beautiful and pure. I enjoyed reading about those two a lot. (hide spoiler)] 
 And last but definitely not least, we have Warner. The bad-guy of the series. I enjoyed Warner as a character tremendously. I think he is really interesting and I really want to see what will happen with him in the next two books. 
 So all in all I did enjoy this book immensely but I still think there is a lot to improve in the upcoming books. I'm excited to read the rest of the trilogy and let's see what happens.
