Shatter Me
by Tahereh Mafi
Book Overview
Under the Reestablishment’s rule, Juliette Ferrars endures 264 days of isolation for a lethal gift—her touch kills. Sector 45’s commander, Warner, drags her from her cell to weaponize her, only for Adam Kent—her guard and a boy from her past—to survive her skin and rekindle long-denied connection. Caught between Warner’s control and Adam’s loyalty, Juliette tests the limits of her power and her need for contact. If she claims her ability as her own, she wins freedom and the right to define her humanity; if she fails, she becomes the regime’s tool—or its next casualty.
This guide delivers comprehensive chapter summaries, incisive character studies, thematic breakdowns, and a curated collection of memorable quotes. It equips you to follow every turn, decode motivations, and trace Juliette’s arc with clarity and insight.
