Review of Teenage Degenerate on Amazon
Review of on Amazon.com from Shane
I grew up about the same age and time as Sterling. I had friends just like him during that time. Many of which have died from that lifestyle. This opened my eyes more into what they were going through and more so when they would tell me “Shane you are not a user, you would not understand”. This is a wonderful read for anyone, we all have a friend or relative who struggles. Read it NOW.
