review 1: This book was interesting. a relatively short read (despite that it took me 7 weeks...). The author doesn't try to make his messed up past any more or less than it is. it was awful, dangerous, and stupid. and he learned from it and grew from it. he's still not perfect, but he's better and he's happy. simple as that. overall a good read if you're looking for a perspective on a more underground lifestyle. might be too violent/emotionally upsetting for some.
