Beschreibung:
Als Isaac der überirdisch schönen Roxy begegnet, zieht sie ihn sofort in ihren Bann. Er fühlt sich lebendig wie nie, alles ist leicht und nichts scheint unmöglich. Isaac ahnt nicht, dass Roxy kein normales Mädchen ist, sondern eine Droge, hergestellt in einem Labor, um die Menschen von ihrem Schmerz zu befreien. Und Millionen Menschen lieben sie dafür. Doch das ist Roxy nicht genug. Sie will beweisen, wie tödlich sie ist.
Stell dir vor, Drogen wären Menschen wie du und ich ... Was würden sie fühlen, denken und wovon würden sie heimlich träumen?
In diesem Buch erzählen Neal und Jarrod Shusterman auf visuelle und kognitiv anspruchsvolle Weise die Wirkung von Drogen, dessen Missbrauch und die verheerenden Auswirkungen auf das Leben aller betroffenen. Dabei ist es egal ob diese legalisiert sind wie Alkohol oder illegal wie LSD oder Oxycodone. Man wird förmlich ein gesogen in eine Welt zwischen Rausch, Realitätsverlust und Fantasy- da die Drogen personifiziert werden.
Es ist nicht vergleichbar mit anderen Jugendbüchern und trifft den Zeitgeist, indem Experimente von Jugendlichen mit Drogen nicht oft genug thematisiert werden. Außerdem visualisiert die Geschichte eindringlich, wie leicht es ist in die Abhängigkeit zu rutschen und dass niemand vor eine solchen Sucht bzw. Abhängigkeit sicher ist, besonders innerhalb der USA, denn dort werden Opiate großzügig als Schmerzmittel verordnet.
