finally finished




READING:

"tweak: my life on methamphetamines" by nic sheff (the man in photo, above)
yes, i am very often attracted to dark and twisty. yes, this book was as tragic as memoirs get. but, you know, i always think but for the grace of God, there go i. it keeps me grounded. keeps me occupied with so much to pray over. this book was well-written, with great visual details. even though sheff tried to break up the drudgery with wistful flashbacks of a privileged, if unconventional, childhood, i still had to rotate this book with a few others (i almost never read a book exclusively, straight through) to keep my spirits up. i did not enjoy this book as much as the last memoir i read, or the one before that, but i still highly recommend it.
