Hunter. Autumn. Summer. Different homes. Different guardians. Different last names. Different lives. But there is one person who binds them together. Kristina. Nineteen years after Kristina Snow met the monster--crank--her children are reeling from the consequences of her decisions. Instead of one big, happy family, they are a desperate tangle of scattered lives united by anger, doubt, and fear. A predisposition to addiction and a sense of empitness where a mother's love should be leads all three down the road of their mother's notorious legacy. Sex, drugs, alcohol, abuse--there is more of Kristina in her children than they would ever like to believe. But when the thread that ties them together brings them face-to-face, they'll discover something powerful in each other and in themselves--the trust, the hope, the courage to begin to break the cycle. Fallout is bestselling author Ellen Hopkins's riveting conclusion to her trilogy begun by Crank and Glass. It is a revelation and a testament to the harsh reality that addiction is never just one person's problem. --

"This book is the 3rd and last book in the crank triology and shows the impact Kristina and her addiction has on her 3 kids and shows their personal struggles as well "

Katrina Adcock

"Takes 3 amazing stories and somehow magically wraps them all up beautifully in the end. Can really feel what these characters are going through. Highly recommended if you have read at least crank! "

"This was a good book but the alternating perspectives was confusing at first which then just became annoying. It was interesting to find out what happened to Kristina and all of the the children she had by various different men in the throes of the "monster" but not the way it was done. Personally, Kristina's story was more compelling and the real page-turner. Hunter was a good guy that dabbled in some drugs, alcohol and even an affair but you knew he would be fine in the end. It was hard to keep Summer and Autumn's stories separate because their names are so similar but once they could be discerned it became easier to follow their plots. Summer's story was the foster kid that fell for an abusive young man named Kyle and Autumn was the smartest one of the bunch, until her dirty little secret comes out. Not the smartest anymore...They are only teenagers but even as a teenager, the education system never lets teens forget the consequences of unprotected sex and getting involved in sexual activity. Obviously, Autumn missed those days in school or just chose to totally ignore what she knew and even goes as far to say as much. The alternating perspectives was alright but Hunter was the only one most would be interested in finding out what happened to him. The others were just an addition and further more a fairly lengthy addition which added a couple hundred more pages to a book that might have been accomplished in half the time. Good book but not amazing, unfortunately. Highly recommend Crank and Glass but if fans were looking for more of Kristina shenanigans, fans will be gravely disappointed if they pick up Fallout. Recommend."
