Kristina, "Crank", and Bree

Kristina is a perfect example of someone who's trying to get by in life. She's a student in high school, has decent grades and a moderate amount of friends. However, all goes downhill when her mother begins dating another man, and she must live with her drug-addicted father who she hasn't in over eight years. This is where she is introduced to "Crank", the monster, Methamphetamine. This is where, "Bree", Kristina's alter-ego enters her world.

Of course there are endless possible outcomes when a character is influenced by drugs. For example, Kristina could suddenly realize her mistake of getting involved, and therefore take actions to correct this through rehabilitation. However, she could spiral into the world of addiction and follow her father’s footsteps as an impulsive being. From looking at certain characteristics of Kristina, I have a feeling that her future might turn out for the worst. For example, from what I’ve read so far Kristina seems like an innocent and shy person that could easily get caught up in the havoc of drugs. In a way, she also seems like someone who’s lost interest in everything and as a result turns to drugs. Hopefully, we’ll find out as I continue to read the book.
