Andrew Joseph White has done it again! I'm absolutely speechless after reading this. Compound Fracture is not what l'd typically read, but White is one of my auto-read authors. This is most definitely a thriller that is full of politics, gore, queerness, and family. As to not spoil anything, I will mainly focus on the characters and writing of the book, rather than the storyline.
Miles is an incredibly well written character that is trans with undiagnosed autism. Cooper was complex and White does a fantastic job of writing the complexity of Cooper. Dallas was a delight. They happen to be my favorite (besides Lady)! Miles' parents were not perfect, but you could tell that they're trying. Actually, every character was well written!!
White has a certain writing style that just hooks you in and this book wasn't any different. I enjoyed the plot of the book, I think it was very well done and concluded in the way all of White's books do.
Overall, I loved this. I highly recommend any and all of Andrew Joseph White's books. Thank you NetGalley and PeachTree Teen for the arc! All thoughts and opinions are my own.
