a really great book about addiction and a father-son relationship & the lengths a father will go to help his son. I was rooting for nick the whole time and felt every frustration and anxiety his father had. Superbly written. Nick’s dad clearly has done his research on addiction and included not only his personal experience with his son but also some facts and statistics about drug addiction, relapsing etc. Will treasure this book!

*by P***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 March 2023*

I've read lots of books about drug addiction and this has got to be one of the best. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to understand what it's like to have an addict in the family.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    An uncomfortable book to read .....  Full of facts and insight about substance abuse ....and Family...
  

*by J***P on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 February 2019*

The last book as medically detailed and sad as this I read was The Radium Girls ... This story of a talented, golden child, athletic, clever, dearly loved but addicted, told from his father's perspective is compelling searching and moving in the extreme. I recently did an online university course called understanding drugs and addiction and I am glad I did as this helped me with the medical implications and details threaded through this book which are explained and explored in Great detail and depth as David Sheff seeks to understand what is happening to his much loved son, mentally physically and emotionally.  Also the impact on his family immediate and scattered and his heartbreak as he seems to understand and wonder if it is his fault.  Lots of questions, lots of disturbing statistics and scenes. It is multi layered and graphic and disturbing and not an easy book to read.  No quick fixes, no answers, no miracles on this journey, but hope and love in a world that often reads as idyllic a place for children to be reared but pernicious drugs easily accessed hover as temptation in paradise. It's a disturbing and challenging read as The Radium Girls was I found. I am not sure if I exactly enjoyed reading it, I stopped and startedA few times but it was certainly moving and compelling.
