In the book Fallout by Ellen Hopkins it is about the kids of a mother who is addicted to crystal meth. The story is told through each of the three kids voices and how they are living there lives. The kids don't live together and they are living with different families because they were adopted as kids i believe. The first kids name is Seth and he lives with his grandma and grandpa. Then there is Autumn she lives with her aunt and a different grandpa. And lastly there is Summer who was on a foster home who is now with her dad.
I have noticed that Seth is sort of getting to be like his birth mother Kristina because he is the one that is always getting laid and doing drugs to relieve stress or problems but he isn't doing crank and getting buzzed all the time. I do believe though he is going to get addicted to something and then his whole life will be ruined. Another thing I realized is that all of the characters are different but there is one part of them that resembles Kristina in them. In Seth it is the drugs part, in Autumn it is the smart part and clean part, and in Summer it is the protective part of her no matter what state she is in. I also noticed they all focus on there words and what they mean and that they all have there share of secrets and dark places in there mind.
I infer that Seth will become a different version of his birth mother like a druggie but not to crank and that some of his life will be ruined and not all and also that he will make some regretful mistakes. Also that he might have to chose between living a secret life that his parents don't know about or even Nikki his girl friend or live a life his parents know about and hate him for. Then I infer for Autumn that she will be with Bryce (new guy that likes autumn) for awhile then when they break up she will break down and go to crank as a way to "heal" her pain and sorrow and then she will live the same fate as her birth mother. Then for Summer I infer that she will be very happy with Kyle(new boyfriend) but Matt(Kyle's best friend and sort of Summers now old boyfriend) will be very pissed and break down(maybe) and try to get summer back or just hate the both of them. While Summer on the other hand will be ready for anything that happens between Kyle and her in their relationship and that if they break up Summer will be ready for it but will still break down inside. The reason is because now she is even more torn up ever since she was-i believe she was-raped at one of her old foster homes.
