Helpful Score: 4

I am a huge fan of memoirs and was interested to read Nic's story. The first hundred pages are shooting up and getting high, shooting up and getting high, shooting up and getting high...you get the point. He gets his life turned around and gives the reader a reprieve from the monotony of a drug addict's day-to-day life only to throw it all away again. I became frustrated with him and his story. I didn't feel that I could trust him at the time when he decided to write this book, as I'm not sure he's really at a point to reflect on his life as an addict. He is still too vulnerable and shaky. Ten years from now, if he is able to remain sober THEN I'd like to read his reflection. This comes too early in his journey.
