Helpful Score: 3

This is fiction at it finest. I can not imagine even before the scandal, that professional and those who have been in rehab did not call Mr. Frey to task for this book on fansty.
What was Oprah thinking?!?!
I had a really hard time with the writting style and just the story line in general, not to mention the belivablity of subject.

However, I will grant, not everyone what wittness a rehab center or known a addict, or those who working in the helping fields. So I cut some slack there.
However the hardest part for me to read was him getting his teeth fixed w/o a local. That would NEVER happen.
Also him throwing up every day and not getting medical help about it, nope, that would not happen either, esp if there was blood. That is a dangerous medical conditon.
I have yet to know anyone who can throw up their stomach and live either, even chunks of it, as he claims in his book.
