Tweak: Growing Up On Crystal Meth by Nic Sheff
4.0
3.8 stars.
I read this book after I read Nic's father's book: Beautiful boy. I think that was a good choice since I was a bit confused in the beginning. Luckily I figured everything out rather quickly since the book is not that hard to understand. The reading is nice and not too slow-paced and I enjoyed it quite a bit. The ending was a bit dragging in my opinion but it doesn't take away the story. The story was pretty unforgettable and had quite an impact on me. In his dad's book, you can read how almost everything revolves around Nic in the family, but Nic rarely mentions his family whenever he's using. I must admit that I felt quite some emotion around some horrible decisions he made which is a good thing in my opinion. I don't understand people don't like the book because of who he is. He's a person writing about his life, not some made-up character. It's definitely something I'll recommend!
