The book does not actually make out Adderall to be as dangerous as Oxycontin.glorytowers05's review against another edition

This was such a brilliant way to tell a story on addiction. There’s creativity in it, an idea that made it feel new and made me pay attention.
Like I am used from Shusterman, a brilliant idea is transformed into a masterpiece of a story. God, I wish I could work with my ideas in such a masterful way.
The execution was careful and yet brutal. It did not shy away, but it did not loose nuance. It never forgot to mention the good drugs being with them, while making clear that that is not the story this book is telling. This book tells the story of abuse and addiction, and that there’s nothing pretty about it.
All of this is to say: I loved the book.
