See how inconsistent I am with everything? I never finish ANYTHING! A lot of stuff just has came up lately, so I haven't really had the time to do this... Oh that was a lame excuse!
Book Review: Fallout by Ellen Hopkins
Not only does Kristina give birth to Hunter, but also Autumn, Summer, Donald, and David. This stunning conclusion to the Crank series is told through the eyes of her oldest children, Hunter, who is in his early 20's, Autumn, and Summer, who are teenagers in the book. I loved the ending, how they all finally came together to have Christmas dinner. (Oh, did I ruin it for you? No, don't think that..)
It was very thrilling, exciting, depressing, and exhilerating, as all Ellen Hopkins books are. It will leave you with a warped mind, but then you'll finally understand what it's like. I know from my own family that it is very hard to cope with a drug addict, and to have this in the point of view of her family, really, really, is great for someone, like you, a reader, to understand the effect she had on that family.
(The children are all seperated, other than Donald and David, who were suposed to be living with Kristina at the beginning, but then moved to Grandma Marie and Grandpa Scott's because of Ron (their father), who abused the living shit out of Kristina.) I'm glad she made a happy ending for her little books, but I really hope that it happens for her, too. That story was real, she just changed a couple of names, ya know.
Reading: Tsubasa #9 (yeah, I know, manga is lame, but I kind of like it.)
