A sad, deep book about addiction and the effects it has on both the people who are addicted and those around them.
I felt like I could relate to Emory. I haven't been through the same situations but I related to how alone she felt, and how she struggled making friends in school. Her parents being so scared of what happened to Joey that they let her go through excess pain and suffering
I really appreciated how real Joey felt, and how his problems didn't magically go away after rehab.
