Synopsis
Best known for her disturbing problem novels in verse, including CRANK, IMPULSE, and GLASS, Ellen Hopkins tackles a bevy of issues all at once with deeply troubled identical twins Kaeleigh and Raeanne. A wholesome family on the outside, with a mother running for Congress and a father who is a judge, inside is a completely different story of sorrow, alcoholism, drugs, abuse, and a seemingly unquenchable thirst for self destruction. Both Kaeleigh and Raeanne are falling to pieces, but each in her own, private way. Uniting together might make the difference between survival and destruction, but are they strong enough to handle the truth?
