Destroy Me

Destroy Me - Tahereh Mafi Initial thoughts: I was all set to skip Destroy Me since it's a novella and just continue with Unravel Me instead. But Chiara convinced me to read Destroy Me first and I'm glad I did. Any trace of doubt that I had about the series after reading Shatter Me dissolved upon reading Destroy Me. The portrayal of Warner added so much depth to this antagonist, there's bound to be a lot of conflict in the later books.

Looking at Juliette through Warner's eyes also added more layers to who Juliette is and why she acts and thinks the way she does. It also puts the idea of mental stability into question, seeing how difficult it can be to measure as an observer who doesn't know the full workings of a subject's mind.
