Fallout (the middle)
Fallout is written by Ellen Hopkins. As we left off at, you were meeting Hunter, Summer, and Autumn. All from different families and different last names. Of course it is the middle of the book and an issue has to occur. In each story of a character there is a difference but also a similarity. All of the children take drugs or smoke pot. There is always a bad influence, and that is the issue.
Hunter was adopted to his grandmother. Summer was adopted to another family. And Autumn is in foster care. Hunter has a usual life but he has a girlfriend that is not a good influence. Her name is Nikki. When reading the middle of the story, Nikki breaks up with Hunter. I thought that it was a good sign but sadly it wasn't. Nikki moved out of her apartment without him knowing. Summer has an okay life. She lives with her Aunt Cora and her grandpa. She has a her father in jail, again. And no mother. Autumn is probably, out of all three, is the depresses one. She describes her foster home with anger and frustration. It isn't a good balance for her. All we know is that she has the most toughest role in the foster home.
As we are traveling closer and closer to the end, there will always be infernces and heartbreaks. From my point of view, Nikki and Hunter are done. Hunter doesn't realize it but there finished!

Fallout
Fallout is written by Ellen Hopkins. Fallout is an example of reading Crank. Everything that happens is related to Kristina and her father. As we left in Crank, Kristina had Hunter. Hunter was her first son, but there is more to Kristina than just Hunter. As you read Fallout there is a loophole in every single word of Kristina's children way of speaking.
Hunter. Autumn.Summer. They are Kristina's children. But they do not all live in the same environment nor have the last names. It is weird because of how Crank left us. There was only one baby that we were told. Not three. Reading Fallout is only the beginning. Hunter is already taking drugs. It seems as if all of Kristina's children are all similar. When reading Fallout, Kristina left Hunter with her mom and dad. The reason why is that Hunter started calling them, mommy and daddy so they thought that it would be right if the parents adopted Hunter. As you can see it is loophole after another.
Fallout will have a extremly juicy ending. I would reccomend Fallout to readers that want to continue with Kristina's life of her children's point of view. All we know for now about Kristina is that she is still on drugs. Its depressing to be her.

Burned
Burned is written by Ellen Hopkins.In Burned you never know what will come. Its a story where you can hide or forgive. Readers will never forget the troubled times of Burned. Pattyn, is her name. She has 9 sisters. The reason why she has so many sisters, is because of her dad wanting a boy. From this point you think that the dad is silly for having all those babies because of just one thing. But having all those sisters put everyone to shame. Pattyn doesn't even know her dad. She sees him throughout her life but she doesn't know him as her father. its a weird connection.
Pattyn is a usual teenage girl but she is a Mormon. A Mormon is a member of a Saint church. Being a Mormon puts boundaries on Pattyn's life. She has to have a Mormon boyfriend or there will be death consequences. Her father is known as the king in their house. Whenever he gets drunk he hits Pattyn's mom. Pattyn has to keep all of the secrets inside their house because of the Mormon life. Pattyn has had enough of all of these secrets. What do you think will happen next?
Burned is an interesting book to read about. Ellen Hopkins is a great author and storyteller. I would recommend this book to Ellen Hopkins lovers. From reading all her books, each and every one speaks something different.

Identical........... part 2(I am spilling the beans)
Identical, as you know is written by Ellen Hopkins. I am so close to the ending. A lot has happened, which I may not tell you. Its confusing but fascinating to read. Ellen Hopkins explains both of the sides of the identical twins, or is she? Reading after 213 pages you somehow notice something strange. You never thought that this would happen!
Ranee and Raleigh are twin sisters. But, there was an accident. Not a switched at birth accident, a car accident. No one never knew what happened that day. But of course someone died. In an accident a life must be taken away. After all of these disasters, Raleigh questions herself, who am I? Whenever there is a question there is a mystery to be solved. Raleigh has a identity disorder. If you don't know what that means, I cannot tell you. But, this is messing up Raleigh's entire life!
All in all, I recommend this book to people that enjoy reading Ellen Hopkins mysterious lives. I really enjoy her books. Some are scary and some aren't. These are her adventures. I hope you'll enjoy!

Beautiful Boy
Beautiful boy is written by David Sheff. If you read Tweak by Nic Sheff there is a resemblance to them. In Tweak it was Nic's point of view. He told his untold life. In David's point of view, its about how he saw Nic grow up. David thought that Nic would still be that little boy that he always new. People change!
David is a father to Nic Sheff. In Beautiful Boy it talks about flashbacks of Nic. How he was so confident in himself. In the beginning Nic is coming home from college. His little brother and sister are really excited. They haven't seen Nic for so long. Its like a new beginning for those two. O f course Nic is tired from his plane trip but, he still reads a bedtime story for his siblings. I cannot tell you the rest of the story because it gives out information that you would want to read.
All in all, I would recommend this book to people that like to read point of view type of books. I reallly enjoyed Beautiful Boy you will too!

IDENTICAL.......
Identical is written by Ellen Hopkins. The main characters are Ranee and Raleigh. Ranee and Raleigh are identical twins. Both twins have a difficulty with life. Even their home life isn't the best of both worlds. They do not have divorced parents but it feels like it to them. Being identical twins usually is hard ( for these twins). Some people, usually friends always mixes them up. Ranee and Raleigh in IDENTICAL both set their stories and opposite ends. They both have problems. What can expect for 2 teenage girls to do?
These girls have a mom that is ruing for Congress. Having a mom that is ruing for Congress isn't just easy. They have to go everywhere! For interviews, and events! Its crazy! Ranee nor Raleigh know their mom that well. They still love her but its hard to say I love and hear an I love you back. She's gone. It is rare to even have a sit down dinner. That's how fast she is. Having a Congress mom is leaving some blanks that's happening in Ranee and Raleigh's life. They found out that there is an actual grandma from their dad's side!! Its pretty interesting because their dad said that his mom had past away. Lies lies and even more lies!
Reading IDENTICAL by Ellen Hopkins is extremely interesting. You never know what is happening and you don't even see it! Its amazing! I would recommend this book to readers that prefer social issues!

Tweak..... the last part
As all of you readers know that Tweak and other books always end. They sometimes end and sometimes don't. It all depends on one person. THE AUTHOR! Nic Sheff, a young teenage boy was thrown out of his own calm, loved life by his decisions. It all rounds out to the decisions. Nic is a drug-addict boy. Starting pot and drugs at the age of 9 ruins your furture.
Nic Sheff is trying to get back on. Yes, he left Lauren ( Nic's girlfriend) in dramatic way. Yes, Nic called his dad. Calling his dad didn't turn out like he thought. His dad didn't even say hello. He just stated that they were done with Nic's life. Its sad to hear that but it was the only thing that Mr. Sheff wanted to say. Mr.Sheff was angry about everything Nic has done. Remember, Nic stole a whole lot of money from his loved ones. Now, Nic ran away from the drug life in Presidio. He went back to his older brother. Nic's older brother gave him advice. To love life! And so Nic did.
Life is short. Nic Sheff is role model. Even though Nic started out shaky he ended up with a life were he had a home. He doesn't live in his car anymore. And he isn't tired from being tired. He has energy to love his life and to know that it was him who made his change!
