"Fallout" by Ellen Hopkins was the best book in the Crank trilogy. It was a little confusing at first, but once I understood who everyone was and what was happening, I didn't want to put it down. These three books helped me realize that there is a lot going on that you wouldn't think about. I recommend these books to people who want to know what it is like when you get involved with the wrong type of people and make poor decisions.

I'm so glad I read this series one book right after the next, which I don't do too often. It really made me immerse myself in the story and I really found myself loving the characters...some more than others because if I'm honest some of the characters lacked any real personality in my opinion. But the story was a hit for me. I tend to like a back and forth between character narrative which this third and final book in the series offers. Two thumbs up for me on this one.

I’m actually finding it hard to believe that I couldn’t make myself give this book a higher rating.
The first two books in this trilogy(Crank and Glass) were just what I expected them to be - harsh, raw, devastating, an inside-look at not only the user of “The Monster”, but a look at how the family of the user was affected. Although Fallout was a good book, I didn’t feel the same connection to it as the first two books.
