I could not put this book down. David Sheff's description of his son's descent into drugs was gut-wrenching. His sadness, horror, guilt, fear and struggle to hold onto hope, all shine through on every page. The absolutely beautiful writing made it easy, even joyous for me to read, even while it broke my heart. Highly recommended.

****** Six stars out of five, and three thrumbs up.
