Shatter Me Complete Collection

2608 pages

A feverish, poetic plunge into a fractured mind finding its lethal power and an all-consuming love.

What it feels like

Reading this series feels like watching a shattered mirror slowly piece itself back together into a deadly, beautiful weapon. The experience is intensely psychological and deeply romantic, driven by a propulsive pace that barely gives you time to breathe. Initially claustrophobic and steeped in trauma, the atmosphere cracks open into something electric and swoony as the stakes escalate. The prose is famously stylized, spilling over with lush metaphors, fragmented thoughts, and signature strikethroughs that perfectly capture the chaotic inner workings of a mind at war with itself. It is a feverish, angsty ride designed for readers who want their dystopian rebellions anchored by fierce character growth, morally gray love interests, and a romance so passionate it threatens to burn the world down.

About the book

Juliette can kill with a touch—will she wield her power for good, or will it turn her into the monster she’s always feared she truly is? Find out in the New York Times and Shatter Me series—all six novels are now available in this paperback box set!

One touch is all it takes. One touch, and Juliette Ferrars can bring a grown man to his knees, begging for mercy. One touch, and she can kill.

No one knows why Juliette has such incredible power. It feels like a curse, like too great a burden for one person alone to bear. But The Reestablishment sees her as an opportunity. As a deadly weapon. And they’ll stop at nothing to shape her into what they want.

Juliette has never fought for herself before. But when she’s reunited with the one person who ever cared about her, she finds a strength she never knew she had.

This bestselling series from powerhouse author Tahereh Mafi showcases relentlessly thrilling action, heart stopping romance, and a war-torn world in which rebellion is the only path to freedom.
