An easy read with kind of a heavy/dark topic like addiction. Some chapters are about their past which I don't really prefer knowing like this. I prefer it when the MCs just recall it rather than having chapters that tell what happened during a specific time. Also, the plot had a lot more potential though. Book is not that but not that good either. This book helped me get out of my reading slump so I'm thankful.
