In Shadow Me, Juliette is still reeling from Warner's betrayal, and Kenji is trying to balance his friendship with her with his responsibilities as a leader of the resistance against the Reestablishment. They both serve as amazing characters who provide the much needed comedic relief in their respective tension-filled stories.Calling all fans of Tahereh Mafi’s New York Times bestselling Shatter Me series! This gorgeous paperback bind-up includes Shadow Me and Reveal Me, the third and fourth novellas in the series, both in print for the first time ever. You can honestly think of Kenji as the Mercutio of the Shatter Me series. It was mostly Kenji’s view of life and his hilarious thoughts which made this book truly enjoyable. It was pretty short and nothing really new or interesting. At some points, we can even hope that she might feel the same way about Kenji as he does. She starts to tolerate him more, in a way. After a little while, their relationship gets a little better.
He stares at her all the time and whenever she talks to him, his responses make him sound like he’s drunk, as Nazeera says. On the other hand, oblivious Kenji is hopelessly in love. Nazeera seems to hate Kenji, mostly because of his attitude and jokes, but them having the same power also contributed to her hatred and annoyance. These two had a pretty rough start, and as they get to know each other more, their relationship doesn’t really get better. But something that wasn’t in the previous book was Kenji and Nazeera’s interactions. With a lot more of Kenji’s hilarious comments and thoughts. It’s just a bit of the ending of the previous book but in Kenji’s POV. Well, this book doesn’t really give any new information. A woman named Nouria, who is apparently Castle’s daughter.
SHADOW ME NOVELLA SERIES
For the first time since the since the series started, we hear about someone we never thought existed. Here’s something interesting that happens. I guess this new Juliette just isn’t really doing it for us. Kenji misses his kind and emotional best friend.
And you can only imagine how Kenji feels about that, let alone Warner. With her new hairstyle, she takes on a completely new, cold, and emotionless look, all business now. And they both are trying to act like their completely fine and distance themselves from everyone else. Juliette is also in agony because Warner and everyone else lied to her about pretty much her whole life. Warner is in agony since Juliette isn’t talking to him and they broke up. SPOILER ALERT A majority of this book is Kenji worrying about other people and their feelings and him gushing over Nazeera. We can all see how well that’s going for him. We also find out, on a side note, that Castle actually made a deal with Kenji to try and reduce the amount of curse words he says. Castle, Warner, his friends, Juliette, and Nazeera. In this book, we learn about Kenji’s relationship with a lot of people. He wouldn’t be Kenji without his colorful vocabulary after all.
This book is set in the perspective of the one and only Kenji Kishimoto, which means that you can look forward to a bunch of hilarious comments and comedic relief weaved in all of the tension that takes place in this book. This novella is part of the Shatter Me series and comes after Restore Me.
