Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi is a gripping dystopian novel that plunges readers into a world where society is on the brink of collapse. At the heart of this chaos is Juliette, a 17-year-old girl with a fatal touch—literally. For 264 days, Juliette has been imprisoned in solitary confinement, her only crime being an accidental touch that resulted in death. The Reestablishment, the governing body, has deemed her too dangerous to be free.

In this shattered world plagued by diseases, scarce resources, and an eerie transformation of nature, Juliette's touch is seen as both a curse and a potential weapon. The Reestablishment decides to harness her lethal power to control and conquer the chaotic world. But Juliette has been pushed aside and abused for too long. When she reconnects with Adam, the boy who once showed her kindness, she begins to find strength within herself and a glimmer of hope for the future.

Torn between her loyalty to Adam and the complex feelings she develops for Warner, the enigmatic leader of Sector 45, Juliette must decide whether she will allow herself to be used as a pawn in The Reestablishment's plans or fight for her independence and humanity. As she grapples with her powers and identity, she must make choices that will determine the fate of the world and her place in it.

"All I ever wanted was to reach out and touch another human being not just with my hands but with my heart."
