This was definitely an interesting book. I couldn't really relate to the main character because of the difference in age and all his issues (which I fortunately don't have), but I did like his character. This book is almost non-fiction, but not entirely, since the writer changed some of the details about his life. This book was unlike any book I've ever read, and it really pushed me to broaden my horizons.

Beautifully written and heart wrenching. A riot start to finish.

This sequel is funny, but it's nothing compared to the first one.

This was the sequel to A Million Little Pieces. Im not sure if this one was embellished the way the first one was as far as story goes but I still loved it just as much as the first one.

after reading a million little pieces, i wanted more, felt as though the story left too much hanging and unanswered. although not as riveting as the first book, my friend leonard does fill in pieces of the story left out previously and gives a more formal close to the story of frey and his life after rehab.

I always have a habit to read reviews after I've read the book and I'm very glad I didn't change that this time. It got to my attention that this book was second in a memoiresce series and I'm glad I didn't knew that. It was no problem jumping into this second one without reading the first but if I had known it was more of a memoir and not a fiction that I thought it was it would probably have ruined my reading experience. It wasn't a bad memoir if I would have read it as such but I found reading it as an fiction made me just following along on the ride without must deeper thought of it and I thought it was a very intriguing read. Not always an easy read but a good one

Wow, just wow. This book is magnificence, true or not. I loved it and I cried for it. The writing style is different, but sweet and addicting. The storyline holds your heart in its hands. There is emotion too, rare and real emotion.

This is a book and a book you should read.
