-------------------------Perfect for the fans of Shatter Me who are desperately awaiting the release of Unravel Me, this novella-length digital original will bridge the gap between these two novels from the perspective of the villain we all love to hate, Warner.

In Tahereh Mafi’s Shatter Me, Juliette escaped from The Reestablishment by seducing Warner—and then putting a bullet in his shoulder. But as she’ll learn in Destroy Me, Warner is not that easy to get rid of....

Back at the base and recovering from his near-fatal wound, Warner must do everything in his power to keep his soldiers in check and suppress any mention of a rebellion in the sector. Still as obsessed with Juliette as ever, his first priority is to find her, bring her back, and dispose of Adam and Kenji, the two traitors who helped her escape. But when Warner’s father, The Supreme Commander of The Reestablishment, arrives to correct his son’s mistakes, it’s clear that he has much different plans for Juliette. Plans Warner simply cannot allow.

Set after Shatter Me and before its forthcoming sequel, Unravel Me, Destroy Me is a novella told from the perspective of Warner, the ruthless leader of Sector 45.

The mini-sequel to the breathtakingly awesome Shatter Me, Destroy Me, is a book that cannot be missed. Warner is a special kind of villian, one that attracts and compels you just as much as he inspires rage, repulses, and makes your skin crawl. If you haven't read Shatter Me, you are truly missing out. Without a doubt it was one of the best books of 2011, and will be forever filed away on my favorite bookshelf. For those who have read and loved it, look out for Unravel Me, book two in the series, coming in February of 2013. Here is Tahere herself explaining about Destroy Me. Isn't she beautiful?

Juliette hasn’t touched anyone in exactly 264 days. 

The last time she did it was an accident, but The Reestablishment locked her up for murder. No one knows why Juliette’s touch is fatal. As long as she doesn’t hurt anyone else, no one really cares. The world is too busy crumbling to pieces to pay attention to a seventeen-year-old girl. Diseases are destroying the population, food is hard to find, birds don’t fly anymore, and the clouds are the wrong color.

Now, The Reestablishment has plans for her. Plans to use her as a weapon.

But Juliette has plans of her own. After a lifetime without freedom, she’s finally fighting back for the very first time—and finding a future with the one boy she thought she’d lost forever.

Full of pulse-pounding romance, intoxicating villainy, and high-stakes choices, Shatter Me combines the best of dystopian with the best of paranormal in a world as riveting as The Hunger Games and a superhero story as thrilling as the X-Men. This electrifying debut will leave readers anxiously awaiting its sequel.
