Young Adult

Delaney, the main character, will keep the reader on his/her toes right from the beginning of the novel. She falls through the ice while with her friends and barely makes it out alive. In fact, by all accounts she should be brain dead. She was underwater for eleven minutes, in freezing water during winter. When she wakes up from her coma, Delaney discovers she has a unique talent. She also experiences a scary event while in her coma that will continue to be a creepy undertone throughout the novel.

Decker, Delaney's best friend and the one who pulled her from the water, is a potential love interest. Decker can be too childlike at times, the reader may want to shake him. However, he has plenty of good traits that will have the reader rooting for the possible relationship. Troy, a boy who may have the same ability as Delaney, is an obstacle to this potential relationship. He throws a wrench in the plot, the reader will have to decide who is truly helping Delaney and who is the antagonist of this novel.

FRACTURE has many plenty of twists and discoveries all which keep the reader on the edge of her seat, making FRACTURE impossible to put down. Be sure to add to your reading list and keep Megan Miranda on your to watch list.

SUMMARY

Eleven minutes passed before Delaney Maxwell was pulled from the icy waters of a Maine lake by her best friend Decker Phillips. By then her heart had stopped beating. Her brain had stopped working. She was dead. And yet she somehow defied medical precedent to come back seemingly fine -despite the scans that showed significant brain damage. Everyone wants Delaney to be all right, but she knows she's far from normal. Pulled by strange sensations she can't control or explain, Delaney finds herself drawn to the dying. Is her altered brain now predicting death, or causing it? Then Delaney meets Troy Varga, who recently emerged from a coma with similar abilities. At first she's reassured to find someone who understands the strangeness of her new existence, but Delaney soon discovers that Troy's motives aren't quite what she thought. Is their gift a miracle, a freak of nature-or something much more frightening? For fans of best-sellers like Before I Fall and If I Stay, this is a fascinating and heart-rending story about love and friendship and the fine line between life and death.
