review 1: So, I'm reading this book and it's all about this guy and the drugs he's constantly taking and all the chicks he's fucking** and all the crazy shit those chicks are into and whether he'll do it or not (usually he will) and I'm thinking, WTF? Why'd I buy this book? And who told me to?? (Should probably find out and unfriend that fucker on Facebook… jk)**if this word bothers you, quit reading this review. And don't read the book!)Each chapter is named, so each is a little story about the same guy, in a different period of his life. Think of them as stories like we tell our friends. We don't just dump everything on them at the first time we meet them.Drugs, sex and music -- if that's your reading list, here ya go! You'll probably love this one.Some of this shit is Laugh Out... more Loud Belly Laugh Funny! ("collateral damage" got me laughing VERY hard.) But I'll warn you, it's REALLY gross in some parts… I'm not going to tell you why or how, but I don't really know HOW MORE gross something can be! You'll know it when you read it.They say it's "brutally honest and blackly comical" -- it is that! And surprisingly introspective-- I think this guy knows who he is, at least, at THIS moment in time. He may even, eventually, grow into a wise old human being.. IF he doesn't fry the hell out of his brain and body before then.Very good art!
review 2: 2.5 stars. I was provided with a free copy of this book through Goodreads First Reads for an honest review. I found this book brutally honest, the type of honest that most memoirs leave out because it shows the filthy, shameful, hideous side of humanity that no one really talks about and looks at in disgust. There is also some humor to it all, and some sadness when you think of the book as a whole. I was unsure how to rate it since I didn't hate it nor love it. I wish it was more in depth in areas so to have a better understanding, and it's more like a collection of stories. It's a fast read for when you want something to entertain you for a few hours. less
