Banned Books Book Club: Crank by Ellen Hopkins

Crank by Ellen Hopkins book cover.

Kristina is the perfect daughter: gifted high school junior, quiet, never any trouble. Then she meets the monster: crank. And what begins as a wild ride turns into a struggle for her mind, her soul--her life. Ellen Hopkins, whom mediabistro.com has called "the bestselling living poet in the country," exploded onto the young adult scene with her first novel, Crank, which has become a national bestseller. School Library Journal acclaims Crank as "a stunning portrayal of a teen's loss of direction and realistically uncertain future." Publishers Weekly raves, "[Hopkins] creates a world nearly as consuming and disturbing as the titular drug."
