Burned by Ellen Hopkins

5.0

This opened my mind to the idea that people think like I do sometimes. This is probably the first time,in a really long time, I cried while reading a book in response to the story...its a shame how things in life turn out. I know this isn't a true story, but this does happen in life. I'm glad to know that the author questions religion in a way that doesn't "step on any toes" so well to a point to where it becomes a question in your mind that may go unanswered, but you're glad its there. Pattyn is a great charater because in a way she is like me, but we also have our differences. She is a raw character that I can relate to....and I've haven't connected like this to any character I've read about in forever. She is very special to me...thanks Ellen Hopkins, thanks for making me feel as if my thoughts are important. By giving thoughts like that to a character is a gift to an author, you are an amazing writer..I hope to enjoy more novels from you. Thank you very much Ellen Hopkins.
