Book Review: Rumble by Ellen Hopkins

Rumble Matt is angry
Over life,
Broken
Out of
Control.
Unraveling

Parents,
Fight,
Hate,
Breaking up

Luke
Younger brother
Depressed
Bullied
Died..
suicide

Matt’s guilt
Could he
Should he
Have known
Been there
Said something
Told someone

Matt’s girlfriend
Is she the one?
Is love enough?

Who loves
Who
Understands
Who sees
Who can forgive
Who else
hears the
Rumble.

Why I picked up the book: We had the opportunity to visit with the author over Skype during Youth Empowerment Council and this was her new book. The YEC does work in the community on suicide prevention awareness and anti-bullying.

Why I finished it: She deals with a lot of tough issues (faith & lack thereof, bullying, depression, suicide, survivor guilt, broken families, anger, relationship issues, forgiveness). I missed the way she used to add imagery to her poems.

Readalikes: Ellen Hopkins’ other books. I’ve read Burned, Crank, Identical.
