4.0


I made the mistake of getting the novellas after the story so its very hard to judge the characters based on what i was supposed to feel instead of what i know about them from the rest of the series

Destroy me:
kinda meh tbh
Just Aaron talking about being in love with juliette and how nobody but him understands her and how wrong she was to choose adam.
1.I still , even after reading the whole series, dont understand how he fell in love with her , like they had no proper conversations , is it just how she looked, or the fact she was constantly rejecting him. I just dont understand where his infatuation for her came from.
2.Taking and reading the only possesion she has had in her life is clearly NOT understanding her. Violating and invading her privacy just because you “feel” like you have something in common with her. Reading her darkest thoughts and feelings from when she was LOCKED UP IN AN INSANE ASYLUM , does not make you suddenly entitled to know her.
3.I know they end up together and blah blah blah blah. But i just find it so annoying how the whole time he feels like he has a right to her , and how her CHOICE to be with Adam is stupid. Its the first human interaction she had after over 200 days, of course its more special to her than some random guy kidnapping her and claiming to be in love with her.
All this novella did for me was bring back my burning hatred for book 1 Aaron Warner.
I get hes depressed and has daddy issues but it doesnt excuse how he treated juliette , even after finding out his real motivations.
But my queen juliette and my king Kenji managed to forgive him , so here i am. Him and Juliette are cute together in the end , though she does become like his only good feauture , without her he became horrible again but you know. If booktok loves Aaron Warner i will look past it

Fracture me:
I only really liked Adam after him and juliette escaped the reestablishment. Like yk when they live with James and then when they first get to omega point. But he was kinda whiny and annoying in unravel me like he got on my nerves a lot.
BUT I LOVED THIS NOVELLA SO MUCH
HIM AND JAMES , UGH SO CUTE
I just liked Adam in this novella
I do not like the way he continuously belittled juliette and her strength , like, exuse me? DID SHE NOT NEARLY KILL YOU AND KENJI ON LIKE MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. DID SHE NOT LIKE CAUSE A WHOLE EARTQUAKE TWICE.
But i really liked seeing him and James together so yk that lifts it up
