    <![CDATA[Nic Sheff was drunk for the first time at age eleven. In the years that followed, he would regularly smoke pot, do cocaine and Ecstasy, and develop addictions to crystal meth and heroin. Even so, he felt like he would always be able to quit and put his life together whenever he needed to. It took a violent relapse one summer in California to convince him otherwise. In a voice that is raw and honest, Nic spares no detail in telling us the compelling, heartbreaking, and true story of his relapse and the road to recovery. As we watch Nic plunge the mental and physical depths of drug addiction, he paints a picture for us of a person at odds with his past, with his family, with his substances, and with himself.  It's a harrowing portrait --  but not one without hope.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I heard about <em>Tweak</em>/<em>Beautiful Boy</em> through the provocative <em>NY Times</em> book review a few months ago. The idea of having such a harrowing story told from two opposite perspectives really piqued my interest.<br/><br/><em>Tweak</em> is nothing if not engaging.  That being said, I find the writing to be sub-par, a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25548507">more...</a>]]></body>
