I read this book for a class and loved it. It is a serious of short stories about drugs and alcohol, so it can be slightly disturbing. Also if you dont have any background with addiction, it might be a little confusing at first. However, Johnson does an excellent job of bringing his characters to life and making you understand both their feelings and their motivations. A must read for short story fans and the book that made me a short story fan.
