Crank is a book I recommend for mature audiences only. It's a book about the struggles of addiction with crystal meth. It shows the lives of people that use this drug, and what it does. Out of five stars, I'd rate this book five stars, because it shows the lives of a teenager's struggles with peer pressure.
"This is a story about a monster. Not a dragon or mythological beast, but a very real, very destructive monster—crystal meth—that takes hold of 17-year-old Kristina Snow and transforms her into her reckless alter-ego Bree." This quote hooked me on the book. And I'd recommend for the people that want to know about drugs and the horrible things it can do to your mind, body, and soul.
One reason you should read this book is that even though it's entertaining, it's actually very informative. Teaching you lessons of don't try things, because their is a chance it will be addictive. It shows you how young lives are being taken ahold of due to peer pressure, and lives are being lost due to substances that aren't even meant for the body. If you love education you'd love this book.
Another reason is that this book is true. It's based on the life of the author's daughter, and her addiction to crystal meth. When a story is a based on something true, it's more real and the reader can really connect to it. It also helps readers to understand, especially teens, that life will be full of peer pressure, but to succeed you need to turn and say no to it all. And that's the point the author is trying to get across. That life is not a fairytale, and everything is not going to be your friend.
So I recommend that anyone 13+ reads this book. They need to prepared for the future and know that drugs are not the way to go and that it can destroy your life. This is a must read book for the 2010 year!
