i want these books and cant wait to read glass i am going to the book store on my lunch break i read crank first then went in bought burned and impulse which were so great they both left me broken feeling but excited to get back with kristinas story hers is alot like mine

I love these book so much! All the Ellen Hopkins books are good!

Crank was such an enthralling, at times highly emotional read, I couldn't put it down. It took me awhile to get accustomed to the poetry-like verse (and including the title sentences as I read...) but once I got used to the style I was hooked. This story reminded me a lot of the book "Go ask Alice" which I read for the first time in junior high and loved. Kristina's roller coaster plunge into the world of crystal meth in Crank is highly descriptive and so captivating that I often felt I was strapped in between Kristina, the main character and Bree, Kristina's sexy and strong alter ego.

Glass continues Kristina's story after she gives birth to her baby (the result of being raped by her friend/drug dealer in the first book) and tries to get on with her life. Unfortunately, the monster (crystal meth) is not willing to let go of its hold on her. I am almost done with it and can't wait to read other books by Hopkins! ( )
