A review by nicinny
Mayhem by Sigrid Rausing

3.0

Parts brilliant, parts boring and rambling. This one dragged for me. Nothing compelling or even all that emotionally gripping- which is surprising given the subject matter. I got bored of hearing how super rich the family is and how they were basically surprised their riches were not enough to stop two addicts from using. Don’t get me wrong, much of the writing is good, in fact very good. The author has some good insights and often returns to considering the causes of addiction. Overall, this was a lackluster read for me.
