She's uncovered one piece of the truth and unlocked a million more doubts. Will this loyal teen ever really belong?
Olivia Jackson has never felt more out of place. Despite loving parents and her closer-than-ever best friend, the seventeen-year-old adoptee is convinced she won't feel complete until she's found her biological family. And her confused desperation builds when she discovers there's money trouble at home, she's struggling on the new track team, and her boyfriend has been lying to her face.
Unable to meet everyone's expectations, Olivia decides it's time to give up and triggers a huge fight with her beau. But when she quietly resumes looking for her dad, the restless girl runs into the dead-end frustration of her manipulative birth-mom.
Has she gotten trapped in a cycle of terrible mistakes or taken a step toward her biggest dreams?
In a deep and thought-provoking novel, Meggan Larson lays bare the struggles of the contemporary adopted teenager. With keen insight and gentle prose, Larson renders a sensitive portrait of anguish, confusion, and desperation sure to ring true with any reader of young adult fiction, particularly those seeking their birth parents.
Fractured is the compelling second book in the Adopted YA coming-of-age trilogy. If you like characters bursting with personality, page-turning tension, and fresh perspectives on life, then you'll adore Meggan Larson's heart-wrenching tale.
