Title: Where is the zero when you need it?
Product review: The worst part of this book is that it's written as if it's happening in real time. Were it a journal - something the author contributed to on a day to day basis - it would be more honest. But as it stands it's a memoir of sorts and seems romanticized.James really pitied himself for having to go through recovery. He wanted the reader to feel how perilous his life had become while using. He wanted the reader to care that he stayed clean because if he didn't he would die. He even went so far as to write an obituary, which is more like a resume on his drug career than what would actually be printed.Also, the menial style in which the story was written was abhorrent. Maybe the chronic repetition is symptomatic of a drug abuser but it was quite annoying.Congratulations, James, you are the first author I have quit reading because I don't care to know how your story ends.
