I’ve read “A Million Little Pieces” by James Frey and i loved it.

I want to read more about recovering drug addicts and things like that.

Read “Go ask Alice”. I believe the author is anonymous.
“Richie” by Thomas Thompson is a good one, too.

Q&A: What book(s) could I get a person with a drug addiction?

Question by Gen Tso Meets Gen Tang: What book(s) could I get a person with a drug addiction?
I have a young female friend who is a drug addict and she is starting to go downhill. She does have counselors and such. She loves to read so I am wondering if someone could please recommend a book about addiction that I can get for her to help her along in her journey. Someone recommended ‘Cracked’ by Dr. Drew Pinksy. Your suggestions are appreciated!
