I really enjoy Ellen Hopkins writing style. The book is fast paced, I started it last night and finished it this morning. Once you begin you just get hooked. Im already looking up the next one to purchase it, because I have to know what happens. This book will take you on quite a ride. It really, I feel it gives you an inside look at what it would be like to have the lifestyle of someone on meth. The mindset is crazy. I would recommend this book as a read and overall, I give this book a 5 out of 5 because it kept my interest until the very end.

Another great amazing book that crushes your heart and makes you bleed. I mean really, reading this book has really opened my eyes to something I never really seen or felt before. I always seen this type of things go on in movies, or heard through stories, but to really be in someone else's shoes and goes through this has really made an impact on me. Once again this story is about Kristina and the return of her past. I think, that if something returns from your past that you once let go and is now following you, this is your test. Whats it gonna be? Your life or the drugs? Throughout the book we see Kristina struggle so much. Many times, I just wanted to help her get out of what she is doing and be the person she is meant to be.The plot line is the same expect now Kristina has a child. And one thing I always failed to understand is how a parent can choose a drug over a child. After reading this book, I am at a more understanding part of this. Drugs aren't easy to get out of. It has such a strong on hold on the person, like you are a slave to it. I saw Kristina fight so hard, yet fail.This is another great book that will leave you speechless. I admire Ms. Hopkins so much for taking the time to write such true stories like this one. The impact that Ms. Hopkins has on me is something that I will always remember. Her writing and inspiration to write about these subjects has really inspired me.

Glass is the sequel to the book Crank and the second book in a 3 part series. Ellen takes us back into the life of Kristina, who in the first novel had a huge problem with drugs. Now, in Glass, Kristina is a mother. She is determined to not let drugs ruin everything again. But throughout the novel, she struggles with the monster. She wants to stay clear of drugs but they keep pulling her in. She needs them to get through her day and feel alive. I am glad that Ellen wrote a sequel to Crank. I really wanted to know what happens to Kristina. This was a very insightful book into to the life of someone who struggles with drugs. I can't wait to read Fallout, the third book.
