Fracture by Megan Miranda (262 pages)
Delaney Maxwell is an all-around normal girl with a normal
life, normal hair, normal body, and a normal brain; until she falls through the
ice and plunges into an arctic environment. It took 11 minutes for her best friend,
Decker, to pull her out. Being engulfed in freezing water, death is certain to
occur in 10 minutes, so she should have been dead. Well, she was; her heart
wasn’t beating, her skin was icy blue, and she wasn’t breathing. After a little
while, she wakes up from a coma in the hospital and everybody says it’s a
miracle. Maybe it is a miracle, but Delaney knew better. After seeing cat scans
showing the brain damage she has, but not having any symptoms, strange things
start happening. She begins to have a magnetic pull to anybody who will die
within the next 24 hours. And then, against all odds she begins to be drawn to
a strange boy, who has the same problem she has. This book is thrilling and
adventurous with a twist of science-fiction and could make you question science
itself.
