Shatter me read free5/9/2023 Bad boy with (probably) a heart of gold trope (We\’ll come to that LATER OH BOY). There\’s the childhood friend who is now a hottie trope. But the \’new elements\’ in this weren\’t exactly new. Buckle your seat belts, darlings, because this one is going to be gif-fed up! Firstly, I gotta ask – WHY? Why the focus on the romance in a dystopia? I am not one for sticking to genre conventions – heck, I love when books subvert them and introduce some new elements. Honestly, this book takes the love triangle to a cringe-worthy level, and WAIT I KNOW YOU MAY HAVE LOVED THIS BOOK BUT I GOTTA GET MY FEELINGS OUT IN A RANT before I can even continue with what I actually liked. Maybe it was the time in which it released – the era of dystopias, but this is more like a romance set in a dystopic world than a true dystopia. This book made me question a lot of things – firstly, about why it is so hyped, and secondly, what are others seeing that I am missing out? I genuinely had to ask some of my friends what they thought of the book, because I saw so many high-rated reviews for it (not from my friends but others I follow on GR) and I mostly got \’eh I didn\’t like it much either\’ kind of answers.
