As always Nic Sheff succeeded in making me cry a bunch. I read Tweak and also Beautiful Boy (written by his father) and we all fall down was like checking in with a friend i haven't seen in a while. Nic wrote about a conversation with one of his girlfriends and she basically said, that his writing is entertainment to the reader and that we all hope he falls down again and again bc thats what makes it interesting. I don't agree. I loved reading these books becaus of his growth. Because it showed that recovery is not linear. Relapse is a part of it and for every addict there is a different way to manage being addicted. Nic Sheffs writing is raw and honest and hypocritical at some points. It's authentic. At the end i felt proud and happy how live turned out for him. How he found a way not just to survive but to life.
