The third installment in the "Shatter Me" series "Ignite Me" was okay, I appreciate how Juliette acknowledges her feelings for Warner at this point while Kent's character is literally written into the ground. It's not groundbreaking or particularly romantic though, and I felt like I breezed through the chapters pretty quickly. I probably would've liked this more as a teenager, because the superpowers and stuff is kinda cringe, but still managed to finish three books in the series.

I liked this book better than the previous books.
Also, I can't stand drama queen Adam.

3.5 stars ! it has been an interesting reread of the series thus far, and though i was first apprehensive about there being three more books, i can see why they were written because a lot less of the ending is wrapped up than i remembered there being. one of my biggest complaints is just how annoying and useless juliette is as a character, and there is definitely a lot of development in this book, which was nice to see, but should a seventeen-year-old who has minimal people skills and barely any knowledge about the outside world really be leading it ?? not sure about that one, but i'm excited to read more about how she's going to make this whole situation work in the next couple of books.
also, not to be an adam apologist because he did do a lot of shitty things in this book, but i remember genuinely hating him so much the first time i read this series, but looking at it now, he's just a simp for juliette, and i don't want to fault him too much because he just wants to keep his brother safe and continue pining after juliette, and his reasons for hating warner and not trusting a lot of the things that have happened are honestly understandable, considering how juliette lacks any semblance of communication skills and how warner chooses to portray himself.
overall, it wasn't the strongest ending, and i would have been fine with the series stopping here, but i am looking forward to seeing how they will rebuild and try to right everything, especially with such an incompetent leader lmao

"You should get a dog, love. I hear they share much of the same qualities."
Wow. I get it now. All the hype around this series (and Waren), I get it now. Anyone who think Adam is better is automatically wrong. I wouldn't mind if Ms. Mafi just kicked him out of the entire series. \
The quotes: amazing
The romance: left me envious in a sense
The character development: afraid it ate.
I started reading this series as some big silly joke. But the silly YA trio has blown me out of the water and I will be buying the second trio and three novellas, watch me. I was so intimidated buy this series due to the length and booktok hype and yet I've read the first three in under two weeks (maybe I just have no social life but that's not the point.) I will forever love this series even when I close the last novella. Some could even call this a modern classic.

I am very confused on why this is everyone's favorite book in this series. I mean, don't get me wrong. Middle school Darian would have ate this shit up!!!! That might be the problem, these books probably weren't intended to be read at my age, and I have outgrown this series before I was able to give it a chance. The character development in this book was great! The writing? How many times can the author repeat the color of a characters eyes? As if I didn't learn the color from the first 20 times I heard in the previous book, and the 20 times I am hearing it in this book. His green eyes looks greenly at me, in the greenest way possible. I do think the storyline is good, and I will continue/complete this series but I just know it is not my favorite overall. I am invested in Juliette's future though, and too see where her relationships take her (though I sure I know all I need to from Tik Tok and such).
p.s. Kenji carries this series so hard. His banter makes most of the dialogue bearable to me. The first 100 pages just being dialogue between Jules and Warner was excruciating. Kenji just seems like the only believable dialogue truly. Yea, Kenji is my favorite.
