Crank by Ellen Hopkins


A ton of my friends have read this book, so I decided to do the same. It was a good choice :)

Kristina. Bree. Same person, but completely different. Kristina is the good girl, smart and full of potential. Bree is the risky type, brewing up trouble with things that Kristina would never do. Kristina has always been in control because Bree never existed, until she stayed at her dad's house for a few weeks.

Is it possible to go from such a sweet good girl to someone who enjoys attention from guys in only a few days. Guess so, because Kristina did. When she went to stay at her dad's she feel instantly for this guy, Adam, otherwise known as Buddy. They hit it off, fell in love, and this is when Bree came about. Adam introduced her to crank, or meth, and this turned her world upside down. Bree became hooked, and when it was time to return to her mother's, there were some difficulties.

She loved Adam, without a doubt, and now, he was gone. He told her to see other guys, that she had his permission, despite their love for each other. But Bree didn't need permission; she was after the lifeguard, Brendan and the bad-boy, Chase. Brendan, on the outside, seemed sweet, but on the inside, sex was the only thing that crossed his mind. Chase was the bad-boy, but turned out to be the nicest guy in the world, next to Adam. All three are very different guys, but they all have one thing in common: they've been hooked by the monster.

How can Bree live if Chase and Brendan can't provide it for her? How can she live past her powerful addiction to the monster? And will Kristina ever overcome Bree? Read to find out.
