A review by saritaroth
Burned by Ellen Hopkins
5.0
This is the second time I read this book, I believe. I couldn't remember if I'd read it before, so I read it again. This has no bearing on how good the book is; I just read so many books that sometimes I can't remember if I've read a certain book.
I have read a few books by Ellen Hopkins; I've read Crank, Burned, and Perfect. I love them all; I am planning on reading all of them at some point. I am currently reading them chronologically, although I read Perfect a while ago before I chose to read them chronologically.
Hopkins' books are all heartbreaking, at some times uplifting, and impossible to put down. I would highly recommend any of her books. This book, in particular, hurt my heart. What some women have to endure on a daily basis, in the name of religion, is devastating. The violent abuse, both physical and emotional, takes an awful toll on an individual; it all must stop. I just don't know how.
