Glass by Ellen Hopkins

Crank by Ellen Hopkins is a really sad book. It seems like the entire family is divided. The father left Bree/Kristina and Leigh when they were at an extremely young age. Leigh is lesbian and is at a collage living with her controlling girlfriend and not to mention she hate her dad. Their mother is super strict, uptight and protective. Kristina/Bree is loose outgoing, loves to get high off meth and is a teen mom as a result of rape.
And now they are all together and i can just feel the tension whenever they are around each other.
It barely seems like they even want to like each other. Kristina/Bree is the only one who wants everyone to get along as a family.
After all they are all here because of her and her baby who is going to be baptized very soon.

I don’t think i would be able to live like that. Everyone would be so; distant from each other and it would always be okward being around them. It would feel like I’m alone.
Overall this is a really good book, and I’m at an important stage in the story and I can’t wait to read and find out what happens next in the plot.
Will everyone cooperate or will there be fighting and many disagreements. Time will only tell.
