Tahereh Mafi

James Anderson had a plan. Or half of one. He managed to do what his older brother, the famous Aaron Warner Anderson, never did: infiltrate Ark Island, the last refuge of The Reestablishment. No outsider has breached the stronghold of the authoritarian regime, but James is in. In a prison cell, sure, but as far as James is concerned, a win is a win.

It’s been ten years since the notorious duo Juliette Ferrars and Aaron Warner Anderson led a worldwide rebellion and established the New Republic of the West. But The Reestablishment is ready to make a devastating move, and they have the perfect assassin for the job.

Rosabelle Wolff had a plan. She always has a plan. On Ark Island, where constant surveillance is packaged as security, even emotions must be experienced with caution. Her every movement is monitored―and when she’s given an order to kill, she never hesitates.

Shatter Me: The New Republic

Watch Me

When nothing made sense, logic sustained me. The Reestablishment had always protected me; it was my father who'd betrayed me. It was my mother whơd left me. It was my parents who'd failed us. IfI could be all that they weren't, I could fix everything. I could be stronger. I could be better. I could be patient. I gave the past ten years of my life to this system, trusting that as long as I kept my head down and worked hard, I'd be rewarded for my loyalty. I trusted that, ultimately, an apparatus of justice underpinned my daily suffering.
