Sometimes, I finish a book and feel like I haven't actually read it properly. A glance at the Wikipedia article for Junky suggests that I missed several key plot points - surprising in that I didn't feel that there was a plot at all. I liked it. I didn't like it. I'm amazed it was published in the 1950s.
