EW Exclusive: Trailer for 'Fallout,' Ellen Hopkins' latest

Filed under: Book Trailers, Books and tagged: , ,

Ellen Hopkins’ Crank novels aren’t exactly light reading material. Written in free verse and dealing with the harrowing consequences of crystal meth addiction, the often grim and disturbing books are a serious YA counterpoint to Edward Cullen’s over-brooding. Fallout, the third in the series, is set to release on Sept. 14, just weeks after Hopkins’ invitation to headline  Texas’ Teen Lit Festival was rescinded. (For those of you who missed the fracas, Pete Hautman blogged that what had happened to Hopkins was “a form of censorship as damaging and inexcusable as setting fire to a library,” and he and other authors then withdrew from the festival, too.)

Any fans of Crank and Glass excited for Hopkins' new book?

    Ellen the schools that surround the Fenton, Missouri Barnes & Noble are ready to welcome you with open arms on Sept. 21st. I’m taking you to three schools before your signing that night. Could have booked you in 10 more if it were physically possible.
