I did finish this book, but I didn't like it!  I did not get from the synopsis nor from the reviews that it would be a book about how much dope the main character could use, nor how many beds she could hop into and out of!  And the main character never seemed to wise up!  I don't read to find out just how dysfunctional a family can be nor how bad a teenager can be; I read to feel better, for entertainment, and yes, for a happy ending now and then. But I don't want to slog through a bunch of drivel to get to the ending.The book was well written; very few grammatical errors, the writer used the southern "y'all" correctly, and the period of the 70's was right on. But having lived through it, I didn't want to read about those days when teens seemed on a course of self-destruction.  Not my type at all.
