520 3 a| In The Fragments Between Us, I immerse readers into the lives of Hudson and Emma, two college students who meet by chance in an English class. Each chapter is split between Emma's and Hudson's perspectives, showing fragments of their background and their perspectives. They both come from backgrounds riddled with family and relationship traumas that both repress. Through their developing relationship, readers are shown growth from both Hudson and Emma, through admitting more than they have to anyone, even themselves. Through fragmented flashbacks and confrontations about them, Emma and Hudson fall in love, and give each other the compassion they have never shown themselves. Their pain, their pasts, are mirrored in each other, and they pull each other above water in a way they could never bring themselves to do alone. Two very different people find one other by chance and open each other up to feelings neither of them could have imagined. Emma, a hopeless romantic who believed she could only live vicariously through fiction, and Hudson, who never believed true love existed, meet in the middle and have a chance to build something they never want to let go of. Their trauma and their fear follow them in fragments, but with each other, they just might be able to pick up the pieces and fit those jagged and broken pieces together and move forward.;
