What can happen in 11 seconds? Well, Delaney
has accomplished a lot including surviving Maine’s icy water. This miracle shocked everyone, but are the repercussions
worth surviving? Written from the
perspective of a 17 year old female, Miranda dissects the possibility of
surviving when you weren’t expected to live and then discovering you have a
deepening sense of death. With the touch of paranormal, the insecurities and
issues that teenagers encounter are dealt with throughout the story. The relationship between Delaney and her
mother helps carry the normalcy and timelessness of this novel. I did
find that some side plots were introduced and then never developed which was
frustrating. Even with a few faults, I feel
teens will enjoy Fracture because of
the creative mix of reality and mystery that Miranda imagines.
