Thank you to DarkLit Press for providing a review copy.
This book is eerie, surreal, dreamlike - and also all too real. It is incredibly well-written, and therein lies the rub. Massive trigger warnings for heroin addiction. If you've ever wondered what goes through a heroin addict's mind when they're trying to get clean, wonder no more. This book has you covered. I'm almost 9 years clean from heroin and very solid in that, but this book could definitely be triggering. The story is super cool and I really rooted for the protagonist. 4.5 stars
