Wow. What a trip. This book is definitely not for the weak mind. The story is raw and the topics it touches on are not for the light of heart. If you are uncomfortable with the r-word and the n-word, I suggest you skip this book. You read the title, so I shouldn't need to warn you about the drug use and abuse, but I gotta say, the scream for help from the children were frighteningly loud.
