Review: Probably should not have read this one.

I definitely caught the Less Than Zero vibe from this story, but this one was a whole lot more intense.  I am an addict in recovery (12.5 years) and my drug of choice was meth.  I did get the feeling that the author either has firsthand knowledge of meth addiction, either with himself or a close family member, but it was pretty over the top.  It was definitely too graphic for me and a few years ago I would have had to stop reading a couple of chapters in,which I hate to do because it actually makes me focus more on what I might be missing and that can mess with my head just as much as actually reading a story such as this.  I finished it, though.  I thought the ending was very rushed, like the climax came at the end and that was that.  I am not sure what kind of read this would be for someone who has never had a problem with meth, but as an addict I don't recommend subjecting yourself to this book.
