    Hab den Film geliebt, aber das Buch ist eher… naja, langweilig. Ich habe viel über Drogen gelernt und die Psyche der Menschen… ein bisschen ZU VIEL. Da hätte ich auch ein Buch über Drogen direkt lesen können, wäre der selbe Vibe gewesen

    I once again realized that memoirs are not my cup of tea. I didn't click with the writing style and I watched the movie beforehand so I pretty much knew the story. It's still heartbreaking to know that this is a true story about a son addicted to meth and how his family has to deal with that. I also liked seeing and reading about the amount of research the author put into this book. So read it if you want or watch the movie (I personally preferred the movie)
