Unravel Me (Shatter Me #2) by Tahereh Mafi

Warner. That is all.
Ok, so, not really but I AM looking forward to more Warner. Don't get me wrong, I love Adam and Juliette (who are together) but there is a special place in my heart for Warner. *sighs*
See, I've always been a vivid dreamer and it's only gotten worse since I've become a reader. If I'm fully invested in a book or it's characters, who knows what will happen once I fall asleep. Awhile back I ate some brownies really late at night and lo and behold, Warner, Adam and Juliette showed up in my dream which went a little something like this...
Warner: (all up in my face) So, you have to tell me if I'm going to die in the next book. I mean, "somebody" shot me in the first one after all, which wasn't nice.
Me: Um, well, this is so weird and you're kinda in my personal space. Not that I mind because, my word, you're REALLY good looking, aren't you? (giggles)
Warner: (still in my face) What? (scoffs) Of course I'm good looking. What did you expect?
Adam: (interrupts) I'm better looking.
Warner: Nobody's talking to you Adam.
Me: Well, he is cute too.
Warner: (glares) Whatever. We're talking about me. I want to know if I'm going to die! I know you know Jen!
Me: Actually, I don't. You'd have to ask Tahereh because she wrote you.
Adam: You can't trust him, you know that, right?
Warner: Don't listen to him. You can trust me.
Adam: No, you can't. Hey, are those brownies?
Me: (wonders where the brownies came from) Um, yeah. Here. (goes to reach across Juliette)
Juliette: Don't touch me! You can't touch me!
Me: (jumps) OK! I'm sorry!
Juliette: Sorry. I don't mean to yell but you really can NOT touch me. At all.
Adam: Yeah, it could end badly for you if you touch her.
Me: I know. I read the book.
Warner: O-kaay, back to me. So are you going answer my question?
Me: (picks up a brownie) I already told you, I don't know. I swear. Mmm, these are good.
Warner: (smirks) By the way, I made the brownies.
Adam: Don't eat the brownies!
And then I woke up. 0_o
So what's your Wow?
So first, I am dying for Unravel Me as well. Second, that conversation is amazing! I wish I had dreams like that, mine are so much more boring! Also, Warner *sigh*

I believe you captured Warner's id perfectly, haha!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! My husband asked me the next morning what the heck was I dreaming about and who was Warner? ;D
DeleteI haven't read the first one, but this one does sound tempting. Love your dream dialogue!
ReplyDeleteHere's MY WOW POST
Haha! Some dream, huh?? Well, I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL October. I've been dying for the novella since it was announced and for Unravel Me. I need October and February to get here, stat.
ReplyDeleteCheck out my WoW pick.
HA I love your dream!!! I'm looking forward to Unravel Me too. Destroy Me even more (HELLO WARNER!). Warner is...amazing. So gorgeous. I'll keep it G rated. :) I love your blog too, it's great! (new follower)
ReplyDeleteI had Destroy Me and Unravel Me for last week's WoW :D But I totally agree with you, there's just something about Warner, he's so twisted and it just makes me way more intrigued for his story than safe vanilla Adam.

LOL Your dream was great! I am really looking forward to seeing things from Warner's point of view. He is such a great 'villian' who you love to hate or hate to love! :)
ReplyDeletehahahaha sounds like an interesting dream. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I just stumbled upon you via Twitter and I haven't read anything in the Shatter Me series, but OMG...that dream was epically funny! And now thanks to you, I seriously *have* to find a way to carve out some time to read book 1...
ReplyDeleteOh and good luck in the YA Crush Tourney!

P.S.
DeleteWe share the same 1st name and I used to homeschool...I mean what are the odds? ;-) And even funnier; here's the 1st line of description of my book, "Shark Bait":
Previously homeschooled Camie Ramsey is being shoved into the shark-infested waters of public high school, where even helium filled, penguin bespeckled arm floaties likely won’t help keep her inexperienced, fifteen-year old head above water in that rip current of hormones and emotions.
Just thought you might get a giggle out of the commonalities like I did. LOL
