Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
3.5
adventurous emotional tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

For everything I love about this book and this series, I hate an equal amount. 
While I love the emotionally driven story aspects, sometimes there’s so much feeling but not much reflection or action as a result of the feelings. 
Sometimes the intense and emotional conversations are just so well done and other times, they are hard to get through.
When Kenji told Juliette
that she needed to stop feeling sorry for herself and look around at the war happening
, I was screaming in agreement. 
I’m so 50/50 with this book, but I am invested and do like it more than I don’t. It just takes me a while to get through it bc I get annoyed with Juliette so easily. I adore the other characters. 
I will be reading the next one but not for a while.
