I thought it was fitting that Hopkins include their story, as the series is a work of fiction based off of her own daughter’s drug addiction. I also liked seeing her children and their view of their mother. I wanted to know what was happening next but I was also ready to take a break from Kristina’s world. The same was true for Glass.īy the time that I reached Fallout I was happy to read the book from another point-of-view (and we got three!). I made my way through Crank in one sitting and as soon as I came to the end I looked around and was relieved that I wasn’t actually Kristina and that I wasn’t living her life. The story is told in first person so that combined with the verse narrative helped me fall into role of Kristina as I read. The novels are told in verse, which I absolutely love in general, and I thought it was incredibly fitting for these novels, particularly Crank and Glass. Fallout takes place years after the first two books and follows Kristina’s teenaged children. In Glass, the reader follows Kristina as she slips further into her addiction. The trilogy follows Kristina Snow, a typical teenager who meets the monster during a court-ordered visit to her father in Crank. This trilogy consists of Crank, Glass and Fallout and follows one teen’s addiction to drugs. It has been awhile since I wrote a book review and today I bring you a review for a trilogy of books, the Crank trilogy, by Ellen Hopkins.
