Shatter me series SHATTERED ME.

I can't explain it! I want to inhale the pages of this book, grind them up, and snort them right up my nose! I want it placed directly in my brain, my very bloodstream! Mafi's words make me feel just like Nicole Kidman in that scene in Moulin Rouge where she is rolling around on that fur rug in her negligee, moaning and writhing in pleasure and saying "Yes! Yes! Dirty words! More! More! Naughty words!"
Although Mafi's words aren't so much naughty and dirty as they are prismatic and mysterious. You'll either absolutely love her writing style or detest it, there's no in between. I wish I could weave her sentences unto a rug to roll around on. They're magical and mystical and they break my heart. I've just started reading the whole series and I'm already afraid to finish it.

In Tahereh's words itself:
//I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction. My eyes are 2 professional pickpockets, stealing everything to store away in my mind.//

These books are full of words I'm dying to be a part of. I'm licked by a thousand flames and I'm inhaling a million more. 🌟
