A note for parents

Glass is a hard-hitting verse novel about methamphetamine addiction told from a teenager's perspective. The book unflinchingly depicts the physical and emotional devastation of drug use, including its impact on a young mother and her infant child. While not graphically violent, it contains mature themes including neglect, family dysfunction, and the progression of addiction, making it suitable only for older teens who can handle heavy subject matter responsibly.
