Among the books I've read by Hopkins, Identical is my fave. It was written amazingly. I love the way Hopkins did the transition poems between the narrators. She put free verse into the next level. As for the story itself, I WANT MORE.


Cheyenne Sutherland This is one of my favorite books by Ellen Hopkins. My mind was blown away when I finished it. This book was absolutly amazing. I give it 5 stars.

Cristabel I did like this book, but at times I thought it was a bit confusing especially when Raeanne and Kaeleigh are switched back and forth in the novel. I don't think the ending was very shocking and blunt, it was sort of predictable. I also like how most of the book consists of poems and is very blunt about the real life situations that Kaeleigh and Raeanne have to face such as being sexually abused by their own father, being bulimic, and using drugs.

There's another author too, and the book I liked a lot is I Heart You, You Haunt Me - that's ..."


I just finished Lisa Schroeder's The Day Before and it was so good. I will read her other ones as well, especially "I Heart You, You Haunt Me". Thanks for the recommendations!

I liked Identical because it completely threw me off. I will be honest and say I have not seen the twist coming at the end.

Gino Alfonso Loved Identical but my fav by Ellen is Impulse. I also really liked Burned. I thought the Crank books just kind of kept going but each has their own heart, highly recommend all of them. I would love an Ellen Hopkins collection.
