I find this book to be captivating and a five-star read for many people, however for me it was too intelligent. One who is knowledgeable on art and pop culture would be more intrigued but as someone who read this book in the hopes that it being under one hundred pages and therefore lightweight, it was the wrong choice on my part.
It is a read that will make you question many things about your life, my favourite being that the comedown of crack can be related to a heartbreak of a great lover and ergo, do you reject that love or accept the consequence that one day it might leave you? It is also filled with quotes like "why bother with a diagnoses at all, if a diagnosis is but a restatement of the problem" which really do leave you thinking.
Wold have been a higher rating if I read in a different context and, like I stated, if I was more educated on the topics discussed.
