Unravel Me

dnf, gets boring halfway through also it’s supposed to be science fiction but it’s mostly romance.

A lot happened in this book - so much was revealed and there was a lot of character development with pretty much everyone.

I'm also starting to like Warner a lot more which I knew was going to happen but didn't expect it to happen so soon. Him and Juliette really do have a lot in common even if she doesn't want to admit it. I really liked seeing Julliete's abilities grow and her start to gain more control over them. All the drama that happened with Adam... I feel like I should care about that more ?? Kenji is without a doubt my favourite character, he's just so precious

Omg! es maravilloso amo a Warner

I've basically been binge reading these books now so I'm pretty obsessed and I don't think I have anything coherent to say but this book was such a shit storm. I mean I guessed Warner to be a good boy kind of like how Rhysand ended up being and I love Warner and have since book one so more of him is so good because I missed him for the first half of this book. The only thing is how everyone treats Juliette specially Castle and Kenji they are such ass holes to her and need to cut her some slack like she's clearly emotionally damaged from her childhood and being locked up it's like Kenji is playing a game where he is like 'my life is worse than yours so I win' so it's kind of annoying hearing him talk like this specially as I was so fond of the character in the first book but now I don't like how his personality is he's just being a douche. Anyway story is still going strong and I still love it endlessly and I'm probably going to binge read this series in a couple of days so R.I.P me😂

Unravel Me dives deeper into Juliette’s struggles with her powers, identity, and emotions. The story slows in places, but the tension between Warner and Adam kept me hooked, and Chapter 62… unforgettable. While some parts dragged, the emotional intensity and character development make it worth the read and set up the series well for what’s next.

English / Romanian review

En: I’m writing this review a few days after finishing the book, and while I do think it deserves 4 stars, I can’t shake the feeling that not much actually happened in it. So let’s break it down as I remember what happened in this book. 

Juliette. She finally starts gaining some control over her abilities. There were moments when I genuinely felt proud of her, but other times I found myself frustrated by her “woe is me, I’m the only one who matters” mentality. Thankfully, Kenji and Castle were there to knock some sense into her when she needed it most.

Adam. In the first quarter of the book, I still liked him. I could see how hard he was trying to make things work with Juliette despite the impossible circumstances. That was admirable. But once Aaron entered the picture (we’ll get to him in a moment), Adam slowly faded from my mind, much like he did from Juliette’s 🤭. And then came his novella, Fracture Me, which made me want to rip my hair out. Being inside his head was frustrating beyond belief. Every thought revolved around how Juliette was too fragile, too unprepared, too incapable to sit at the figurative adult table. Juliette can’t know this, can’t do that, can’t, can’t, can’t. I’ve never read a love interest who underestimated his partner as much as Adam did in that novella, all under the guise of “love” and “protection.” On the other hand, I can’t fault his love for his little brother James. James is only ten, and Adam clearly sees him as both brother and his child, the only real family he has left. That bond was heartwarming.

Aaron. 
Ah, Aaron 😍. Chapter 62!! That confession. The kiss. The touches. I melted—pure butterflies and cloud-nine vibes. Aaron is so not YA-coded, and I adore that. The moment he defended Juliette against his father? Loved it. Their long, meandering conversations in his cell about everything except what was of interest for the Omega Point? Loved it. His powers, his tattoos? Loved them. And the ending? Absolutely spectacular give me thirteen of them right now money💸! As for Aaron’s father, I hate him with my whole heart, but without him, we wouldn’t have witnessed Aaron’s heartbreaking desperation at the end.

Overall, as much as I can remember now, the book was good. It was engaging, addictive, and impossible to put down once I picked it up. And the biggest takeaway? I’ve fully converted to Team Aaron 😌.

Ro: Scriu recenzia asta la câteva zile după ce am terminat cartea și, deși cred că merită 4 stele, nu pot să nu simt că nu s-a întâmplat chiar așa mult în ea. Așa că să le luăm pe rând pe parcus ce îmi amintesc ce s-a întâmplat în volumul acesta. 

Juliette. Începe, în sfârșit, să își controleze mai bine puterile. Am avut momente în care chiar m-am simțit mândră de ea, dar și clipe în care m-a enervat cu mentalitatea de “vai, ce problemă am eu, doar eu contez.” Din fericire, Kenji și Castle au fost mereu acolo să îi mai aducă aminte că lumea nu se învârte în jurul ei.

Adam. În primul sfert al cărții încă îmi plăcea de el. Îl vedeam cum se chinuia să facă relația cu Juliette să funcționeze în ciuda circumstanțelor imposibile. Și asta chiar era de admirat. Dar odată ce Aaron și-a făcut apariția (ajungem imediat și la el), Adam a dispărut ușor-ușor din mintea mea, exact cum s-a întâmplat și la Juliette 🤭. Apoi am citit nuvela Frânge-mă de la finalul cărții... și mi-a venit să îmi smulg părul din cap de nervi. Să fiu în mintea lui Adam a fost extrem de frustrant. Tot ce gândea era cum Juliette e prea firavă, prea nepregătită, prea neîndemânatică pentru a sta la “masa adulților.” Juliette nu poate să știe asta, nu poate să facă asta, nu poate, nu poate, nu poate. N-am mai citit niciodată un interes amoros care să își subestimeze partenera atât de mult sub pretextul iubirii și al protecției. În schimb, dragostea și grija lui pentru fratele mai mic, James, m-au emoționat. James are doar 10 ani și e singura familie pe care Adam o mai are și îi este atât frățior, cât și, practic, propriul copil.

Aaron. Ei bine, Aaron 😍. Capitolul 62!! Confesiunea. Sărutul. Atingerile. Pur și simplu m-am topit, fluturi în stomac și mintea în nori. Momentul când o apără pe Juliette în fața tatălui lui? Superb. Conversațiile lor lungi din celula lui Aaron despre orice altceva decât ce era de interes pentru Punctul Omega? Ador. Puterile lui Aaron, tatuajele lui? Le ador. Finalul? Absolutely spectacular give me thirteen of them right now 💸! Tatăl lui Aaron mi-a displăcut profund, dar dacă nu era el, nu am fi văzut disperarea sfâșietoare a lui Aaron de la final.

Per total, cartea a fost bună, captivantă și greu de lăsat din mână (odată ce o deschideam). Și cel mai important: m-am convertit complet la team Aaron 😌.
