You'll change your mind by the third book, trust me

You'll change your mind by the third book, trust me"
That is a very true sentence :)

But then I read Unravel me, and now that I see his vulnerable side, TEAAAAAAMMMMMM WAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRNERRRRRR!

A heheh, my friend. You are going to change you're mind after reading the second book. And if not, You'll change you're mind by the third book.

Like Juliette said in the Ignite Me, she and Adam ended together by default. Look at it this way, Juliette had been abused her whole life because of the powers she possessed and when she's thrown in an asylum, she pities herself. Suddenly swoops in a decent looking guy, who, later on in the chapters, is nice to her, because Juliette tries her best not to upset a single soul. Then we find out he can touch her! So Juliette, being naïve, thinks that 'hey he's nice to me, he can *touch* me and he's good-looking, so he loves me'. But the question is how can she know what love is when her own parents shunned her? Thus they end up together by default. As the series progress and Juliette's personality develops we notice a shift in their relationship. If Adam loved her, he would've accepted the change, but he couldn't stand the fact that she could stand on her own two feet. Warner, on the other hand, encourages her and loves the fact that she's grown into a strong independent woman. When she was with Adam she was "Adam's girl" not "Juliette the strong female protagonist who loves Adam". When she ends up with Warner, the become "Warner and Juliette" not "Warner's girl". Because let's face it, the girl's a natural born leader and wouldn't last long as "Adam's girl".



omg yesssssssssss exactly what i thought


Why pity Warner? He has Juliette now. His life is complete.
I hope Adam gets a girlfriend and is happy in the next book.

yay
#teamwarner

so really, I'm Team Warner now.
unfortunately now I immediately have a crush on anyone named Adam :) somehow I still have a sweet spot for him

Like Juliette said in the Ignite Me, she and Adam ended togeth..."
wow
I couldn't have said it better :)
Anyone who says Adam hasn't read the entire series. Warner, duh!

Read the other books you’ll see

XD Thats's 100% true!
Just wait till the Ignite Me. Soooooo good!

Chapter 62 of Unravel Me though...that was pretty fantastic :)

nailed it!
Honestly, SHATTER ME is way too covenient. (Juliette being able to tough Adam.) I don't care if. . .*spoiler alert*. . .Adam can turn off people's powers or Aaron has the same ability as Jules. Whatever. But having the two plausible love interests get to touch her no problemo is just dumb and it can still be great if she can't touch one. Just makes the story less convincing and emotional.

I'm actually not a very big fan of steamy romance. Personally, I like to see characters build a connection that goes way beyond passion, kissing, and sex. If a relationship is ever going to last, you need to be more than bed-mates. People go out and sleep with total strangers and never see them again, so I need something a little more convincing than; "he's a GREAT kisser!"
Plus, reading about someone's sexual experience is kinda gross. Even if it is fiction, I don't need/want to know everything. I get that a lot of people enjoy that, but it isn't my cup of tea. Usually when I answer questions about romance in YA, I take in the fact that most people enjoy reading about it. But personally, I don't care for it.

Yes!

OHMY GOSH! I read some of it bcuz everybody kept ravin..."
Well just wait until Ignite me...😂

Adam was always the 'good guy', he was projected as honest, caring and perfect for Juliette, but was he?
I really like adam as a character, but i think that Juliette is more herself and free to express that when she is with Warner. she learns from his experience and they complement each other very well.
Adam and Juliette only worked for a short time, there is a reason to this.
