Warner Bros. has acquired the rights to Tahereh Mafi’s Shatter Me book library, the series that began with Shatter Me and now spans 11 books, plus a recent spin-off titled "Shatter Me: The New Republic." The deal arrives as the franchise marks its 15th anniversary.

The story centers on Juliette Ferrars, who possesses a deadly power: prolonged skin-to-skin contact kills. Captured by the totalitarian Reestablishment and forced to use her ability against prisoners, Juliette later escapes with the help of a mysterious love interest.

The books have sold more than 15 million copies and been published in 38 territories and 34 languages, and the series has a strong presence on social media, particularly TikTok’s #BookTok community.
