Shatter Me

Shatter Me by Taheren Mafi
Juliette Ferrar is 17 and has been alone and jailed for almost a year, 264 days to be exact. Juliette has a gift or curse as she likes to call it, her touch causes pain and eventually death. This is something the government want to control and use for their benefit. On day 264 she is given a cell mate, Adam, who is immune to her touch. Coincidence, I think not, he is working for the government. They want him to get Juliette to come over to their side. But things are never that simple, Adam falls for Juliette and together they try to defeat the "Establishment".

This book is the first in a trilogy. Juliette's character starts out a bit whiny but as the story develops so does her character. If you are a fan of dystopian novels with romance thrown in you will not be disappointed.
