I love these books! I thought the first one was wonderful and reads like a true story. The second one does the same. I love all of the characters, even the bad ones, and I root for the ones that have no one in their corner. Again I had to keep reminding myself that this wasn't fiction but it such a gritty portrayal of addiction and life on the streets. It isn't pretty and at times will turn your stomach but in this day and age I feel as though everyone should be familiar with the dangerous path addiction can take because it is ugly and it happens fast.

I didn't like the ending but the ending is real. Kudos to Marni Mann.
