Grace Gerety Reviews “Gripped #3: The Fallout”

By Grace Gerety—Duxbury, Massachusetts

Gripped Part 3: The Fallout by Stacy Padula is an incredible book within the series. It makes connections from different storylines that were set up but not complete in previous books. It also reveals many key details about certain characters and why they are the way they are. It allows the reader to get a fuller picture of the truth happening within the characters’ lives.

Such as previous books in the series, Gripped Part 3 explains the dangers of drug use and abuse. The book touches on specific drugs not mentioned before in the series, and uses real life examples to show the horrors of them. The book also wonderfully shows how and why people, especially teens, begin to use drugs. Gripped Part 3 is an amazing addition to the series and sets up for more books to follow.
