All in all I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read these type of books. By that I mean questioning the thought of life, dealing with death, loosing touch of reality, etc. You can just really relate and understand her problem because it felt you were dealing with it too. I liked the authors writing style and the characters were strong ones. The only thing I didn't like about the book was that it just ended. It did have an ending which was good and everything but then again it just ended. ”

“I honestly was a bit confused, at times, with this book. But once I realized what it was really about, and what it stood for, I liked it. It follows the life of a girl named Delaney, who recently died and came back to life. This, along with her best friend and a mysteriouds guy named Travis, threatens to ruin her and drown her yet again. As she realizes she'd different, with a terrible power laying on her shoulders, Delaney is almost completely gone in a world of chaos and fear.”

She meets a young man named Troy who poses the same abilities that Delaney is developing. The two of them went into comas after horrific accidents and some how they survived. Troy and Delaney can sense when others are about to die. At first Troy comes into the story as a friend, but as time goes on Delaney realizes that he uses his ability for bad instead of good. He becomes violent and dangerous. Delaney's best friend, Decker, struggles to understand the transformation that she has gone through and attempts to help save her from not only Troy but herself.
Throughout the book Delaney experiences death, sorrow, and joy in ways she never imagined possible. The battle she faces within herself as well as with the friends and enemies she acquires rages on until the end. ”“Fracture started off promising, but I just felt like it was half a book. I know it was a bit of a philosophy on life and that there was hidden messages between the lines. There were many greater themes and lots of big questions to deal with, but I felt like Megan Miranda was trying too hard to get a message across than take the time to work writing as an art-form, to tell a compelling story. The message was deep, the writing style however, did not feel this way. The characters had strong, promising foundations, but they quickly gave way to plot. I didn't like it. Maybe it was just too depressing for me to death with? Too much of a death/dying-orientated book.”

“Amazing story that drew me in and kept me there. I was up until 3 am to finish it. It would go from heartbreaking to heartwarming and then right back again, all in a few pages.

“ Dying is nothing like they say it will be. It's not peaceful and painless; it hurts and is scary as hell. But once a person is dead they are supposed to stay dead, there is no coming back after 11 minutes of death. So how then did she survive? There is no evidence of the brain injury she should have sustained being so long without oxygen, there is no evidence of anything being wrong with her, at least none that will show up on any tests. But she is different, and there is something wrong with her.

Waking from a coma she should never have lived through, everything has changed. No one understands what's she's been through, what she's still going through, no one that is but Troy. Attractive, mysterious and a little bit dangerous, Troy knows all too well what it is she is going through having been through something similar himself. But the secrets he is keeping are more then just dangerous, if she's not careful they just may be the death of her.
Fracture is part thriller, part supernatural and part romance rolled into a tale of family, friendship and death. As relationships are tested, trust is betrayed and hearts are broken, from the moment she fell through the ice and felt her life slip away her life has been irrevocably fractured. And if she is to begin to put the pieces of her life back together again she is going to have to want to live, and fight to stay alive.”
“Not a love story. ”
