Let's take a moment to just clam down and applaud Tahereh Mafi for outdoing herself with this sequel. 
 I think what really accentuated this segment of the Shatter Me series was the character development seen through almost every character but mostly in Juliette, Adam and Warner. At the very beginning of this series, I felt incredibly repulsed by Warner and found myself cringing and dry heaving at his overly sarcastic comments but that gradually evolved and transitioned. I've always appreciated a good story with good character development, I think it gives a story more of a realistic element because don't we all develop every day, don't we all change. I feel like after reading this book I've become more accepting and open to the idea of people evolving and the endless prospects of change. 
 I'd also like to commend Mafi and her ability to create such relatable and well rounded characters. I found that I could relate to almost every character (in a small or major way) that I met throughout the book... Whether that be through Juliette's battle of self acceptance, Adam's undying dedication to those he loves or even Warner's outlook on life. As much as I found some of the characters frustrating or infuriating, I still felt this invisible pull to keep reading, to find out what happened next and if that isn't a good reason for you to read this series then I honestly don't know what else is. 
 ON TO THE NEXT BOOK: yes, once again I'm on the edge of my seat... Desperate to find out what happens next... No surprise there.
