Now you understand why some of us have gone to the dark side with Warner. :-)<br /><br />I do read novella's when I hear from other bloggers that they're worth my time. Some are definitely not, but this one was a wonderful addition to the series story. So I guess I kind of hang back and wait and see what other people think before wasting time/money on them.

I'm glad you enjoyed this, though! I wasn't too blown away by SHATTER ME, but since DESTROY ME is from Warner's POV, there's a high chance I might like it. It definitely sounds like Tahereh did a good job in developing Warner's character - any book that makes you question things you originally believed has to be good, right? :)<br /><br />I'm tempted to get this now, Brandi, so thanks for the helpful and great review!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6071281654490676742.post-10609744733854928012013-03-23T16:52:20.966-04:002013-03-23T16:52:20.966-04:00This wasn't even out when I read the arc of Un...This wasn't even out when I read the arc of Unravel Me and they both still worked perfectly for me. I adored how Tahereh's writing changed in this one to fit Warner's personality. I'm glad you enjoyed.

You get to ...I do like novellas and I do read them. You get to know the characters better. I actually started it, not knowing it was Warner's story, but as soon as I found out, I stopped reading it. No matter how mean a character is, when I know there's a reason for it or even if there's not, when they love someone and they get hurt, I do feel bad for them. But I still don't want to switch to team Warner. There are ways to do things, and I hate braking up with guys or just telling them that I don't feel the same for them, but sometimes you just don't. And in this case I hope she ends up with Adam.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01392770387367192793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6071281654490676742.post-45712601309485593682013-03-22T19:00:44.210-04:002013-03-22T19:00:44.210-04:00This one does give us some insight into him.
