I know right?!?!

Finished

(view spoiler)[ I actually finished this a while ago and then got off goodreads for a hot minute. This book seriously shoved me into a bit of a slump. Smh... the characters were mostly just annoying. Juliette is a horrible person all around and it’s driving me nuts!!! In my experience (which isn’t all that wide, I’m just saying) if someone loves someone else a whole lot, they don’t go around kissing other people and doing things to make their love unhappy. That’s just stupid. Kenji is the only thing that saves this from being a one star book. He needs to continue being real with Juliette and maybe she’ll get over herself... I want to keep reading, but after reading this I’ve been struggling to read anything at all... 🤦🏻‍♀️ (hide spoiler)]

Would be starting this today :)

[Prisha]

25%

(view spoiler)[ Why does Juliette think that she is no one here? She is so important and I really would wish that she should try making an effort to get to know others. I mean, I get that she cares about Adam, but there is so much more here than just him. She should expand her horizon.

From reading this book before, I did remember that she has so much power, but I had forgotten that she literally divided the ground into two parts, now that's just a lot actually. (hide spoiler)]

[Prisha]

50%

(view spoiler)[ Well it comes out to be, that warner is actually a nice guy, and can be a human being. Like when he saw the dog and hid it away just to feed it. Adam has an interesting power actually, the way he can disable things. (hide spoiler)]

[Prisha]

75%

(view spoiler)[ It was so interesting coming to know that Adam and Warner are brothers. I remembered this from the last time I read this book, but it's just so much more interesting now. (hide spoiler)]

[Prisha]

Finished!

(view spoiler)[ I was always in support of Warner and Juliette, cause it's so much more interesting than her relationship with Adam. I do feel like Warner deserves to know that they both are brothers. (hide spoiler)]

Kenji is amazing and I need more of him!
I have never been a fan of Adam and he is so dramatic and I was so happy about the speech Kenji gave to Julie..."


Exactly, I am so agree with this. I'm so glad Kenji gave her that speech

[Natalie]

Starting today :)

[Natalie]

Chapters 1-12

(view spoiler)[
Ughh I hate it when books do this. The leader always ends up keeping secrets from the MC. And that’s exactly what Castle is doing. I don’t like him at all. And I really wanna know what’s going on with Adam. Speaking of Adam. I don’t like him at all. I feel like he’s being over dramatic and he’s completely leaving Juliette in the dark.

Juliette needs to get over herself and try to be a part of the group. Stop being so obsessed over Adam and make new friends. And stop apologizing. She needs to become the strong bad ass she has deep inside.

Oh and I wanna see James :(

Yea I agree, Juliette needs to start working and helping the group[

[Aly]

I'm reading this today!

[Aly]

ch 14 (view spoiler)[ Juliette can be a bit annoying when she gets all 'woe is me, I'm a monster' but when she finds out that it does actually hurt Adam to touch her, I feel so bad. He's the first person she thought she could have a relationship with and now it feels hopeless (hide spoiler)]

Totally agree! (view spoiler)[Castle is very frustrating, why keep secrets? I don't like that at all. And I miss James too (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

If you haven't read before starting this, you really should. It's short and gives so much insight into Warner's head

[Aly]

ch 28 (view spoiler)[ Castle is a dick. He clearly doesn't care about Juliette, sending her to the Commander. I get that he knows Winston and the others better, but he basically guilted her into it.

I get Juliette breaking up with Adam since her touch hurts him. I wish Adam wouldn't be such an ass about it and understand where she's coming from (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

ch 45 (view spoiler)[ yay more Warner! I love this part, when they bring him to Omega and we get to see conversations between him and Juliette. Also, it was pretty badass of Juliette to shoot Anderson (hide spoiler)]

Yes (view spoiler)[ she is important and needs to get over herself and try to make a friend beside Adam lol. When she punches the ground, holy cow! (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

Prisha wrote: "50%

[spoilers removed]"

Yes I love seeing (view spoiler)[Warner be sweet and kind (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

Prisha wrote: "75%

[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ And them being brothers makes sense as to why they can both touch her. It's an odd love triangle though (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

ch 58 (view spoiler)[ so cool that Warner can take someone's energy and use it. The opposite of what Adam can do, which makes sense. I love that Juliette cares for Warner and he really does love her. His tattoos are awesome (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapter 27

(view spoiler)[

I’m glad that Juliette is finally getting out of her own head and trying to be part of the group. Its nice seeing her hang out with other people rather than clinging to Adam. I love Kenji so much. But he really doesn’t know when to shut up sometimes. If he compared me to a fly trap I would be more than a little peeved.

I don’t really like Adam anymore. He knowingly touched her when he knew she could hurt him. He was only thinking of himself. He didn’t think about how she would feel knowing that she hurt him. It good that they aren’t together anymore. He was pretty much a band aid/ distraction for Juliette.

I wonder what Warner’s father is like? And I hope they get Winston and Brendan back!

I'm happy too (view spoiler)[ that Juliette started hanging out with Winston and the group and they better get Winston and Brendan back!! I love those guys. (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapter 50

(view spoiler)[
Oh my god. Everything is happening and it’s starting to get so GOOD. I can’t put it down. Adam and Warner are brothers. Adams trying to fight for Juliette. And now Warner and Juliette have this thing going on. Ugh I love it so much. I’m actually starting to like Warner. He’s had a terrible past and he’s just misunderstood. I’m really shopping Juliette and Warner!

Oh and I’m really happy that James is back 😁😁
(hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Finished
(view spoiler)[
Holy crap. That was freaking amazing. Warner and Juliette really needs to happen. It’s obvious that he loves her. And I think Juliette loves him too, she just won’t let herself admit it. But I don’t like that he just went back to his dad. I don’t really know where I was expecting him to go, but I didn’t want him to do that.

I need to know what happened to everyone else! Mafi can’t just leave us in the dark like that!

I know, what a cliffhanger! You should definitely read Fracture Me before Ignite Me, it's a nice look into Adam's head and what's going on while Juliette is gone

[Aly]

finished (view spoiler)[ It's sad that Warner went back to his father, but it's all he knows. And hopefully he thought he could help Juliette by watching Anderson. I'm happy Juliette is okay and with Warner again! (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Going to be starting this Thursday or Friday.

[Aly]

Yay!

I'm so glad I continued on with the series.
Kenji is amazing, I love everything that comes out from his mouth.
And my heart just goes out to Warner, kind of, I hope, but I have a bad feeling of what the future holds. But yeah well it's the 2nd book of 6, I have my fingers crossed :)

[Aly]

Yes love Kenji!

[Courtney]

Chapter 10 (view spoiler)[ Kenji putting Juliette in her place was epic! She needed it. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Yeah Thank God for Kenji! He's one of the few people who actually is carefree around Juliette and I think he's in the way of becoming one true friend of hers... And he's funny as hell 😁 I like him so much (hide spoiler)]

[Vivi]

Aly wrote: "ch 14 [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Me too, I feel so sorry for both Juliette and Adam. To know that Adam can be hurt (and was hurt) by Juliette's touch AND that using his gift to fight off Juliette's gift is very taxing on his health and exhausting to him is so Heartbreaking to me!...

Their sweet relationship is doomed! 💔 At least for now... Until they both have better control of their gifts.

And What about Warner?!
Does Warner have the same or a similar gift to Adam's?! Will he have the same issue with Juliette's touch that Adam has?... Maybe his gift is not a defensive mechanism like Adam's? Maybe he can get better control of his gift than Adam?!... Does Warner even know he has a gift?! I don't think so!... I'M CURIOUS... (hide spoiler)]

[Vivi]

Prisha wrote: "50%

[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Yeah, turns out that Warner is so much more of a Nice guy that I initially thought he was! I like him a lot more now. I'm ALL for the sweet guys! 😍 💖

Warner is a very good guy who hides behind a cold, evil front... because of his father, I'd say! It's actually heartbreaking to me that he has to pretend to be an unfeeling, imoral monster to survive.

I absolutely hate Warner's father, BTW. He's a despicable man! He's the actual cold, imoral monster here! (hide spoiler)]

[Vivi]

Chapter 36 - (view spoiler)[

Juliette is such a BADASS! 💪 I'm loving seeing her beat and shoot the crap out of Commander Anderson. He deserves every single shot! (hide spoiler)]

[Vivi]

Courtney wrote: "Chapter 38 [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[They're BROTHERS?! 🤯 (half-brothers).
So Warner's father is the same guy who beated Adam. Just makes me dislike Commander Anderson even more! I'm with Juliette, she should have just killed him! 🔫

Does this mean that Warner and Adam's gifts might have something to do with their father's DNA?

What about James? Is Commander Anderson his father too? (I hope not. This is a horrifying man to have as a father! Better to be fatherless, really). (hide spoiler)]

[Vivi]

Aly wrote: "ch 45 [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Yeah, totally BADASS of Juliette to shoot Anderson. My hate for him just grows with each passing chapter. What a horrible, despicable man!

And, yes, we're definitely getting to know more about Warner. I definitely somewhat understand him more now, then I did in Shatter Me. And I like him a lot more now, too. Him and Juliette are similar in ways... (hide spoiler)]

[Vivi]

(view spoiler)[ Yeah, I don't feel the same way as I did in Shatter Me about Warner. I really didn't like him then.

Destroy Me definitely changed my perspective on Warner. And seing him now with Juliette makes me like him more too. (hide spoiler)]
