Good Read - A Million Little Pieces (Updated)

If you or somebody close to you has a problem with alcohol or substance abuse, A Million Little Pieces (Pieces) is a book to put on your list of must reads. In fact, if you have ever wondered how an individual thinks who is an abuser or what happens in rehab, this book will provide you with some insight.

Author, James Frey, at the age of 23 had been an alcoholic for ten years and a crack addict for three. Fortunately for him, he had family and friends who did not give up on him. Pieces follows Frey’s six week stay in rehab as he faces his demons.

It is a startling story.

Five stars.

Update: (1/10/06) The Smoking Gun reports that its investigation cast doubts about the accuracy of Frey's Pieces. Any Donkey posts here.
