I read the book and i thought it was a good and a real life story that people can relate too. It does describe bad events through out the story but it shows how a young teenage mother tries to do better for not only herself but her son too. She does struggle and lets the bad stuff get the best of her but at the beginning she seemed well commited with trying to do better. It may sound easy to get better after being addicted to a drug but its harder and more complicated then what it seems. We had to understand that in this certain situtation... but it is a very good book!

i love these books i have to say i am a 16 year old i have been almost through everything the character kristina went threw. before i read this book i never read a book an when i saw the first pages of crank i loved it an now i actually love reading. this book is great

I have to say i absolutely adore this book, and it teaches a good moral story to help others realize what they can get into but other than that its not good for kinds under the age of 16.

Although it gives many bad message it is a great book! Many kids can relate to it (not in the ways your thinking) and teaches us many important leason about life...I would recommend this book to anyone 15+, I read it at 12 and I didn't get any of it...really confusing for the young mind.

I loved the book Glass, by Ellen Hopkins. It was a quick read due to its gripping story and the page layouts.The book is so well written you can almost imagine yourself there, along for the ride with Kristina.

Love the book. Ellen Hopkins is an amazing author all her books leave you feeling emotional and as if you know the characters, It's sad what Kristina went through in the books, but it is what drug users really face. Ellen has seen this up close and personal due to her own child being an abuser; therefore she can show us how it actually effects people.

I was a virgin to my husband when i married and he is the father of all of my children, i have never been addicted to any plant based man=made substance derived from the red poppy, white lotus or blue agave i think it is relevant to remember a little history, british warhships forced china (after attacking the port of canton with cannonfire for weeks and blockcading the city so it could not serve as the center of foreign trade for an empire heavily dependent on trade from many nations, starving and terrifying the native populace) to import opium grown in asia for the british, they also terrorized the amish into growing hemp for them (like cotton but does not mildew in cold wet weather) used for rope, sailcloth, hammocks, warm underclothes, soft swaddling for newborns, sheets for bedding and more! the british also terrorized surviving native americans into growing corn (moonshine) and tobacco for them, the are "the borg" "you will be assimilated~resistance is futile" there was violence and opium addiction in this world long before we were born and it will be so long after, this book may just give a young adult who is curious about opium the courage to "just say no", i think the example she sees in her own home far outweighs anything she will read/see/hear/experience in books, movies, conversations with friends or stars~ it all comes down to the mother,father, siblings,grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins~is there anyone in the immediate family with an addiction? anger, alcohol, opium, gambling, shopping, incest? that is far more likely a predictor of future addiction than anything she reads, sees, hears, books/tv, movies, its time to take responsibility, mom&dad, dont let her get exposed at home!! to addiction, dont worry about books, tv, movies, friends

this book was amazing . I would definatly advise you to read it .
