This was definitely my favorite book out of the series. I find her books that have multiple stories to be a lot better. I thought it was really unique that she made this book from the children's point of view. I never would of thought to do that.

This was, by far, my favorite of the three Crank books. Something about hearing the story from Kristina's children is incredibly captivating. I loved all three characters, and I think Ellen Hopkins did a great extrapolation of the story. What I wonder is what really happened with her daughter and her daughter's children. It really intrigues me, although I know it's not my place. But I want to know how much of this story is really fictionalized, and how much is actually based on what happened.

"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.
