Tricks by Ellen Hopkins

My Rating: 3 stars

Warning: Rated PG-13

In my opinion, Tricks wasn’t one of Ellen Hopkins’ best books. It was about five people, and what they do to survive in the worst situations of their lives. All five of them, Eden, Seth, Whitney, Ginger, and Cory live their lives differently, but somehow fall into a similar situation. Having five main characters, and each of their stories different, is definitely a challenge, and I give Hopkins credit for that. But, for me, it was pretty confusing, and by the time I finished reading all five little sections, I forgot what happened to the first person.
