This week I have been reading the book "Glass" by Ellen Hopkins. The book is a sequel to the book "Crank" also by Ellen Hopkins. The books are about a girl named Kristina that is addicted to cocaine/meth/crystal meth. Kristina has gotten to very desperate desperate low points in her life. With

 using the drugs, Kristina has lost most of her self control. She will practically do anything for drugs. Her love of drugs has gotten her raped and pregnant. 

       Kristina chooses to do drugs instead of facing her problems. Kristina has gotten kicked out of her house by her mother and has a dead beat boyfriend, who cares more about meth than about her. Kristina gets mixed up in sex, drugs, lies, and scandals. Between all the drama, it seems that all Kristina can do is keep smoking (crystal meth). She chooses not to handle her problems, but to kick them aside until they blow up in her face, in a need of attention.
