Maybe its the way its writen or the text itself, but it makes me want to jump out of my skin. ive read this book 12 times & still havent got bored of it, i dont think ill ever get bored with this book, i just love it , simple as that, if you are even concidering this book, do it, you will not regret it!

Great, but Disappointing Ending

This review is from: Burned (Hardcover)

3 years ago

This book was absolutely amazing. I opened it up and saw that it was all in poems/verses and thought "Oh, No maybe I don't want to read this". I figured what the heck might as well. It was fantastic and I cried like a baby near the end. The ending was incredibly disappointing. I thought she could have ended it differently. Other than that, I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a good novel to read and never let go until you're finished.

another amazing book

5 months ago

Ellen Hopkins never disappoints. Another book about personal troubles, this time about Pattyn, a teenager in a strict family community. She starts to doubt everything she's been told is 'right' and is punished for speaking out. She really finds herself throughout the book and discovers the true meaning of love, and how painful it can be. The ending was a bit of a cliffhanger type but besides that i cant complain.

You won't be able to put this book down!

This book was really amazing. I usually hate books written in verse form but I thought I would give it a try since the story sounded intersting. I loved reading about Pattyn and her relationship with Ethan. When a really unexpected twist came along I was so sad and shocked! After I finished this book I couldn't stop thinking about it for days and I immediately recommended it to all of my friends.

A great story, a must read. Hard to put down book. Very sad however. A good cry for the sensitive. Very easy to relate to. Highly recommend it!

i've already read crank & glass so i was expecting another amazing read from burned and i definitely wasn't disappointed! the falling action made me cry while the ending stopped my breathing. i wanted more but regardless the book was still AMAZING! burned has truly become one of my favourites and i recommend it to anyone who is considering to read it. ellen hopkins is simply a pronominal author!

Wonderfully Unique

I love how this author is so unafraid to tackle real teenage problems today in each of her novels. Have read two of her other books and while this one is not my favourite i would stil highly recommend it! The edning frustrated me, but don't expect ellen hopkins books to be happily ever afters. They are real life. The ugliness, the beauty, the anger, and the pain. Terrific author i hope she keeps writing.
