MFB: Ignite Me (Shatter Me # 3)

“And we are quotation marks, inverted and upside down, clinging to one another at the end of this life sentence. Trapped by lives we did not choose.”

      Ignite Me is the third and final installment in the Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi. The book concludes the story of seventeen years old Juliette, a girl whose touch is lethal. With a single touch, Juliette can literally shatter anything or anyone. 

     When I started reading this series, my expectations weren't too high and boy, was I wrong! The book is a YA dystopia and being my favorite genre, I decided to give it a try. I was not disappointed! All the books were full of action but the third one I thought was the best one because we got a little bit of everything: action, romance, friendship, character development. Suffice it to say this book completely blew me away,

Here is the official description of the book:

"The heart-stopping conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Shatter Me series, which Ransom Riggs, bestselling author of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, called “a thrilling, high-stakes saga of self-discovery and forbidden love.”
With Omega Point destroyed, Juliette doesn’t know if the rebels, her friends, or even Adam are alive. But that won’t keep her from trying to take down The Reestablishment once and for all. Now she must rely on Warner, the handsome commander of Sector 45. The one person she never thought she could trust. The same person who saved her life. He promises to help Juliette master her powers and save their dying world . . . but that’s not all he wants with her.
The Shatter Me series is perfect for fans who crave action-packed young adult novels with tantalizing romance like Divergent by Veronica Roth, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, and Legend by Marie Lu. Tahereh Mafi has created a captivating and original story that combines the best of dystopian and paranormal, and was praised by Publishers Weekly as “a gripping read from an author who’s not afraid to take risks.” Now this final book brings the series to a shocking and satisfying end."

     I really liked that in this book, Juliette finally decided to take manners into her own hands and use her powers for the greater good. If in the previous books she was extremely scared to use her powers and she was more of a burden than any help, in the final book she joins the battle and finally learns how to cope with her overwhelming power. I really liked how her character evolved in the story and I liked seeing her become a powerful young woman.

     Another thing I really loved about this book was Warner and Juliette. Warner was amazing and even though I hated his character in the first book, all the revelations about him completely changed my perspective of him. I was extremely happy that Juliette chose Warner over Adam in the end because Adam's character was ruined for me. I didn't really like him in the first book and I started hating him in the second book. By the third book I was completely sick of him.

     Overall, I have to say that I'm extremely glad that I decided to read this series. I completely loved it and it has become one of my favorite dystopian series along The Hunger Games and Divergent. I definitely recommend reading the Shatter Me series and trust me when I tell you that Ignite Me is one of the best books I have read so far!
