Glass...

I am reading he book Glass by Ellen Hopkins. It is the sequel to the book Crank , which is about a 17- year old named Kristina Snow. In the first book we meet her before her deadly introduction with the "monster", also known as crystal meth. Kristina decides that her "crank" alter-ego has a name, and her name is Bree. Now in this book i am reading we recollect with Kristina/ Bree. We learn how after getting pregnant from a rape and working at a 7-11, that she is still in love with the drug. Only this time she tries a stronger version of it called "glass" which is a ice looking chunk that is smoked.

I have found this book very interesting and i continue to love these books by Ellen Hopkins. It shows some of the difficult some teenagers will go through if they don't watch out and stay true to themselves. Kristina/ Bree's struggle is very rare, yet also very typical. As-well as throwing you right into the mind of her and her alter-ego. These books she writes are very strong and yet hard to read. It throws things at you that would never be expected in a book. It is a very dark book.
