Representaion Toward Books Fallout (Crank #3)
Hunter. Autumn. Summer. Different homes. Different guardians. Different last names. Different lives. But there is one person who binds them together. Kristina. Nineteen years after Kristina Snow met the monster---crank---her children are reeling from the consequences of her decisions. Instead of one big, happy family, they are a desperate tangle of scattered lives united by anger, doubt, and fear. A predisposition to addiction and a sense of emptiness where a mother's love should be leads all three down the road of their mother's notorious legacy. Sex, drugs, alcohol, abuse---there is more of Kristina in her children than they would ever like to believe. But when the thread that ties them together brings them face-to-face, they'll discover something powerful in each other and in themselves---the trust, the hope, the courage to begin to break the cycle. Fallout is bestselling author Ellen Hopkin's riveting conclusion to her trilogy begun by Crank and Glass. It is a revelation and a testament to the harsh reality that addiction is never just one person's problem.Particularize Books As Fallout (Crank #3)

So heartbreaking & powerful to see the effect of drugs on an addict's children.Full Review to come.Check out this review and others on my blog: https://thriftybibliophile.comFallout by Ellen Hopkins is the third and final book in the Crank trilogy. Nineteen years after Kristina meets the monster, her children continue to pick up the pieces of their moms bad decisions.I was so excited to read Fallout, and while it was good, it wasnt nearly as engaging as Crank and Glass. Kristina is not front and center in Fallout. Instead, Hunter, Autumn, and Summer take the stage.The perspective shifts back
I loved the first two books of Kristinas story so much more. Maybe its because Im older now but I felt like it was the weakest story though the author wanted it to be the most powerful. I remember feeling anguish during the Kristina parts but not so much here. While her children each have a compelling story, the fact they have to share space to tell it weakens what they have to say. Probably couldve done without so much sex as well but I get this is YA so no chance. Such an unsatisfactory end to
Weirdly enough I liked this installment much better than the first time I read ( I originally gave it two out of five stars) it and I think it is my favorite one in the whole trilogy now... It is so funny cause going into this one for the second time, I distinctly remember how much I didn't it like it the first time I read it. Weirder things have happened right? I enjoyed this series for the second go round. I invite everyone to read Kristina's and her children's stories.
It wasnt the same story I was expecting from the first two novels. However, I do think its interesting to see the fallout reaction in her childrens lives; all of these different stories could actually happen. This wouldve been five stars had it been said what happened with Autumn and her news. Did Bryce forgive her? Was Bryce there for her? Did Bryce even speak to her again? I feel like Ellen Hopkins gave Autumn something to set her apart from the other siblings and then it was forgotten in the
I enjoyed this book, I listened to it in audio. The funny thing is that if I didn't know it was written in verse book, I wouldn't have guessed it in a million years. It reads as a normal book.I liked that this book focused on the children born to a mother addicted to meth- their genetic struggles with mental illness, how different their lives are -one not knowing she has siblings, a young man coming to terms with the fact that he was born from a rape, one in foster care, another adopted by an
