If you feel like your life is all gone to hell, just read this. You'll find people who are in lower depths of hell than you. Bad luck, bad drugs, bad choices, bad men, bad wars, you name it, our 'heroes' have lived though it all. Two good friends who are having a very bad time of it. Very gritty and real, some people may not be able to relate to the lives these two lead. But I still found it hard to turn away, like driving past a car accident. You keep wondering "How did they get like this?"
