Description

I won't go into the specific characters and what makes them diverse, as I don't want to accidentally slip into any spoilers.

Door de cover hoopte ik een boek te lezen dat mij zou shockeren, mij zou verbazen en buiten de YA lijntjes zou kleuren. Her voice drew me in right from the beginning and her descriptions were not only scary but also highly (excuse the pun) addictive. Clean is a brilliant YA read and a perfect example of how YA fiction can be used to tackle more mature ideas in a thoughtful way to make a real impact on its reader. Todos têm uma adição diferente: uns estão relacionados com drogas, outros com comida, mas ela não consegue descobrir a adição de Brady.

Und ja, keine Frage, das kommt vor – aber nein, normalerweise kommen nicht alle Patienten um fünf Uhr morgens zusammen, um den Sonnenaufgang zu beobachten. Whereas some YA novels make addiction look glamorous - part of the lifestyles of the rich and the famous, something to aspire towards - Dawson rejects that dangerous portrayal. I knew that it was about drug addiction and substance abuse, and sensitive topics were going to be covered.

Dubbed as “Gossip Girl meets Girl Interrupted”, Clean is a biting and hard-hitting YA novel centring around Lexi, a spoiled hotel heiress with a serious drug problem, who is checked into a luxury island rehab facility by her brother after she overdoses on heroin.

Vielleicht hatte ich zu viel darauf gesetzt, dass keine vorkommen würde, und war deshalb enttäuscht.

The story opens with her brother checking her into rehab, or rather a treatment institution that deals with a variety of addictions. Nicht nur, weil es darum geht, wie Lexi und die anderen daran arbeiten, ihre Abhängigkeiten zu überwinden, sondern, weil das Buch das Schöne, meistens aber das Hässliche abbildet. The additional cast of characters are also incredible, which is what I think made this book so good, there is not one character that I didn't want to read about. While I’m neither a drug addict nor a wealthy British teenager, I found myself identifying with all the characters.Knyga, kaip galima suprasti iš Melvin Burgess „Heroino“ paminėjimo ant viršelio, yra susijusi su narkotikų tema. It's safe to say that she falls into the wrong crowd, and gets involved in drugs, eventually becoming a heroin addict. I'm not going to give any spoilers as to where the characters end up, but I finished reading Clean with a smile on my face. In parts, the story was fresh and fluffy with its modern references and teenage melodrama, but other parts were rather gritty and raw. The story revolves around Lexi, a Russian born hotel heiress and her time in treatment facility for addition.

The story circles back in on itself as you read in the most wonderful ways, and I loved the choppy narrative and the slow reveal of past events. That said, she’s exceptionally well written and complex, and I love her with the horses, and the moments with the others in rehab.I really want to see a story revolving around the friendship of Lexi and Kendall as they learn to live outside of the treatment facility, and face the rest of the challenges that life has to bring. But, the black girl was a sassy overweight, American and the boy with OCD was a posh, white guy who went to Eton. Ich bin dennoch froh, zu Clean gegriffen zu haben, und würde es weiterempfehlen; allerdings nur, wenn ihr euch sicher seid, dass ihr mit den Triggern umgehen könnt.
