This book was so insanely accurate to addiction, on any side. I've been in both Emory and Joey's shoes, and this book spoke to me in a way I never expected. It took a minute for me to get used to the writing style of Glasgow, but god she depicted everything I've gone through so well.

Emory's relationship with a character named Gage Galt, is purely sexual even though Emory doesn't want it to be. Emory says everything was consensual but it was really clearly more of emotional manipulation.
