Tearing through this one, buddy-ro. Why did it take me so long to realize Rural Noir, Crime Fiction, and Literary Novels about Dangerous Losers are THE SAME? Will report back once I wrap it up.
Update! I got a concussion right after I finished this book, which seems EXTREMELY APPROPRIATE. Anyway, if I remember correctly, the end wasn't as satisfying as the beginning, but I really enjoyed it in a very trashy ultraviolence kind of way. The chapter with a bunch of idiots sitting around getting high while being deftly manipulated by the protagonist is the most realistic 'bunch of idiots sitting around getting high' scene I've ever read. And my best friend's brother was a 20-year-old skateboarder with a pool in the 90s.

Drugs, drugs, drugs and more drugs. Not really my thing. Fairly well written but well, just too many drugs.

A riveting tale of drug-fueled insanity between inseparable souls
The primary characters are a man and woman, whose names have changed so many times they are no longer sure what they were called before they clambered aboard the roller coaster that takes them through drugs, crime, passion, betrayal & murder.
