I just ordered this from Amazon and thought I would see if anyone wanted in on a ring for it. I'll add the journal link when the book gets here and I register it.

Synopsis

Nic Sheff was drunk for the first time at age eleven. In the years that followed, he would regularly smoke pot, do cocaine and Ecstasy, and develop addictions to crystal meth and heroin. Even so, he felt like he would always be able to quit and put his life together whenever he needed to. It took a violent relapse one summer in California to convince him otherwise. In a voice that is raw and honest, Nic spares no detail in telling us the compelling, heartbreaking, and true story of his relapse and the road to recovery. As we watch Nic plunge the mental and physical depths of drug addiction, he paints a picture for us of a person at odds with his past, with his family, with his substances, and with himself. It's a harrowing portrait -- but not one without hope.

Yep, add me. Thanks!

I'm very interested in reading this!

Hate to be a pill about shipping preferences, but I have 2 in college (and I promised my own "Nic" a truck if he made it through this year) -- therefore if I'm early on your list, I'll need to ship US, but if the book reaches me in August or later, I can mail overseas.

Thanks so much for letting me know about Tweak!

Please add me as well! I just finished BB and would like to see the other side. I prefer to ship to US.

I would like to join this one also. Like the last one I prefer to ship within the US. Plus if possible I would like to be at the end or towards the end since Spring quarter has just started and I don't want to hold things up for to long. Thank you!

I would love to join this one too, if possible. I live in Ontario and will ship anywhere.

YaY! thanks for letting me know about this -- of course I'd like to join in. I'm in Canada and will ship anywhere.

I'd like to join and would prefer to ship in the US for now. Thanks for the invite :D
