Glass Entry 3 3/23/12

I think the main theme of the book is to have control over your life and not to let something like drugs ruin or even control. Once you start something its very hard to stop and slowly every thing just starts to go wrong because you want what ever it is your addicted to so badly that you'll do anything. Even it includes hurting the people that are closest to you. Once you lose control of your life it is so hard to get it back. Thats why you shouldn't start doing something that you know could potentially ruin your life. I'm not that far in my book yet but  just judging by how bad Kristina's addiction is I have a strong feeling that shes going to start falling back into old habits such as having sex just to score. In the what I read today Kristina had gotten home from going to see Robyn and her mom was slightly upset because it was really late. Well Kristina was still messed up from when she was with Robyn. Then she has to take care of her son Hunter. I think that it's kind of a sad situation. I really hope that nothing bad happens to Hunter because shes on drugs or something.

Glass Entry 2 3/21/12

In the pages I read today Kristina decides that she is going to go see her old friend Robyn to get some meth. She has to lie to her mom so that she can take her moms car. That was all that really happened. I think that it’s really interesting to hear her talk about her addiction. I like that she calls it The Monster. It makes a lot of sense though to call it that. Since it’s so addicting and takes over your whole life. I think that it’s sad though that she doesn’t take better care of her son. Although I think that in a way it would be really hard to have the child of the guy that raped you. It’s like a constant reminder.

Glass Entry 1 3-20-12

I started reading Glass by Ellen Hopkins today. I got to page forty. So far the main girl Kristina has talked about how she got hooked on meth. She refers to it as the monster. The first time she does it she gets hooked. Well she soon feels that its not just a want but a need. She'll do anything to get it. Kristina ends up getting raped by a guy who she is trying to score from and ends up pregnant. She stops for a while but soon she gets back on it. Thats as far as I have gotten. Its really good so far.

Girl Interrupted Entry 3 3/15/12

In the part I read today it talked about how the patients view the people that worked there and how certain ones got treated differently. Also Susanna talked about this other girl who was a patient who they all really liked, even Lisa. So far I think that its a really good book.

Girl Interrupted Entry 2 3/14/12

I read from 68 to 80. In these pages not much happened. The girls were talking about people that they have hooked up with that are other patients. Lisa who thinks that she is in charge of all the patients is trying to show up this other patient who is also named Lisa. Then Susanna talked about how a sentence can be broke to down and can actually mean so much more. Then how when you do this the things stick with you. It was actually really interesting how she broke down the sentence that she did.

Girl Interrupted Entry 1 3/13/12

So far I'm only on page 65. It is a very good book I'm hoping to have it finished by the end of this week because its only 168 pages. So far Susanna has been admitted into a psychiatric ward and has only been there I believe a few months. In the pages I read today Susanna and some of the other girls that are allowed to leave the ward with nurses go to the ice cream place. They're going there because the nurses think that it will help take their minds off of their friend Daisy who had recently killed herself. So far the book is really good and very fast pace.
