The result is an empathetic, highly readable tale that captures the messy dynamics of sibling relationships, the pain and powerlessness of addiction from a loved one's perspective, and, in an ending that brilliantly mingles loss and hope, the necessity of letting go."<P><br><br>"A powerful debut."<br><br>"Ellen Hopkins fans will find another look at methamphetamine addiction in this quick, realistic debut. "<br><br>"Teens affected by drug use may see their own experiences reflected in Rachel's story. Recommend this to readers of Ellen Hopkins' similarly themed novels in verse."<br>
