Ellen Hopkins latest book written in verse is about five teenagers from different parts of the country. Three girls. Two guys. Four straight. One gay. Some rich. Some poor. Some from great families. Some with no one at all. All living their lives the best they can, but all searching...for freedom, safety, community, familiy, love. What they don't expect, though, is all that can happen when those powerful little words "I love you" are said for all the wrong reasons.What SL teens are saying about the book...
"The book has smooth story lines and teaches you about many different lifestyles--all tied together by drug use."--Deja P.
"I love Hopkin's writing style--it is moving and poetic and all the stories are compelling. I sometimes wish she wouldn't be so cynical, but then again, that's probably her appeal."--Sonia R.
