All of this somehow managed to happen within the years that Juliette was locked up, which is where Shatter Me starts. I believe that now a new government has taken control, and a rebellious group is hoping to rise and fight against the new government that is currently in place.
I picture The Hunger Games in my head when I picture it. I know that it takes place in an area that fell to a takeover. When it comes to the novel’s setting, there is no way I’ll ever fully understand the actual world that the author created. If you overlook the oddities of the original setting in the first few chapters, you may find yourself loving the series! I advise other readers to understand that the first few chapters are essential, but the rest of the books will not follow this same depressing tone and direction. I had a better understanding of why the author incorporated such a boring beginning into the book. After reading the novel’s beginning and getting past the initial setting, I realized that everything in it was essential to the book’s plot. Not only is the setting dreary and confusing in the first few chapters, but the main character is also essentially alone, leaving us no other newfound characters in which to develop interests. My reasoning behind not finishing Shatter Me in the past is simple. She immediately expressed her love for the series, and her excitement had me laughing so much that I realized the novel might bring me the same amount of joy. When I picked up my shaken espresso, the girl working at the Starbucks window saw Shatter Me sitting in the passenger seat of my car. Then, last week, I went to grab myself a drink from Starbucks at the drive-thru not far from my home, and that’s when my slump turned into a binge read of the Shatter Me series. I tried several books, but none were kicking me with the wonder that The Cruel Prince had previously knocked in my face. Soon after I finished reading The Cruel Prince trilogy, I struggled to find another book to read, which put me into a reading slump. Well…the future came…and this is where I ended up writing a very long review. Tweet Every time I attempted to read the first few chapters of Shatter Me because BookTok made it sound interesting, I would put the book back down and tell myself I’d try to read it again.
