Shatter Me

 

Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi  YA

(from Amazon)

One touch is all it takes. One touch, and Juliette Ferrars can leave a fully grown man gasping for air. One touch, and she can kill.  No one knows why Juliette has such incredible power. It feels like a curse, a burden that one person alone could never bear. But The Reestablishment sees it as a gift, sees her as an opportunity. An opportunity for a deadly weapon.  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.

(My Review)

This book was pretty intense.  In this dystopian novel, Juliette is being held prisoner because her touch is deadly.  Now, they want to use her as a weapon.  She doesn't know who she can trust.  I thought it was sad, and my heart ached for her trauma.  This is the first book in a series of 7, so it will be interesting to see how her character develops.
